    If you want fruit with it, infuse it with strawberries and blue/blackberries! It is sooo good! Icy cold water that tastes like berries...yummy!

    This does sound good! :) I actually like water, but something different occasionally would be nice too, especially since my whole beverage lists is typically water, coffee, and whiskey. lol

    yum. whiskey.

    As soon as you wake up just chug a LITRE. If your pee is yellow, your not drinking enough. If you feel thirsty, you are already dehydrated.

    So just try to find a water bottle brand that you really like the taste of. I know arrowhead tastes like faucet water which is not good at all. Put the bottles in the fridge or somewhere you will come across them and take 2 or three bottles with you to work.


    But bottled water is SO expensive and those empty bottles take up so much space. A filter is cheap (you can install one on your faucet or fridge).

    At $1 each, 4-5 times a day...that's $150/mo. I have a camel bak eddy I use that cost me about $15 and I've been using it for a few months. Even my obnoxiously expensive fridge filter is $40 and lasts for six months.

    Six months - one bottle plus filter - $55.

    Six months of bottled water at $1/ea - $900. Let's say your favorite brand is insanely cheap at 50 cents - $450 - still a lot of money wasted.

    Water. MUST be COLD, or forget it.
    I started drinking 72ozs a day , six weeks ago and it has now become a habit.
    Huge difference . Hair, skin and nails all look much better now.
    Because of that, it's easy.

    Yes! Instead of bottled water I use a Brita Water bottle (built in filter) .... it holds 20 ounces. The water at work it just nasty (a different city).

    At home I keep a pitcher of water in the fridge .....it really helps to have it cold.

    Someone suggested the contigo water bottle and a friend of mine uses those but I love camelbak water bottles. I tend to drink a lot more water when I keep one full of cold water at my desk and at the gym. I don't know. Maybe I'm just lazy and unscrewing a cap or presing a button is too much work for me for water haha also I like lemon or cucumber in my water
