    I drink a LOT of water at work, usually 48-64 oz in a typical work day. I just make it habit/routine when I am at work. I like to have a fun water bottle or cup with lid & straw to drink from, I find that I'll drink more water out of those than buying bottled water because I am super cheap. Fortunately for me, my city has excellent water that tastes as good or better than bottled.

    I still struggle when I'm at home on the weekends. I've never really been one to drink throughout the day. In the past (before using MFP) I just drank coffee with breakfast and 12 oz of diet cola with lunch and dinner. Not enough hydration whatsoever but I don't really feel thirsty throughout my typical day.

    On road trips I force myself to bring along water now, too.

    I have a 28 oz. Blender Bottle from GNC. On a good day, I drink 3 full bottles of water from it. I also use Mio and other flavor additions like True Lemon and True Lime packets from Walmart.

    Swallow. *nods*


    All jesting aside, I use a Bobble. I fill it from a filtered source and then it has it's own filter as well. If I could filter it again without just running it through the britta container twice I would.

    :)

    I just started infusing my water and I find it's gives it a nice flavor without adding cals. I used sliced lemon, mint and cucumber.

    I always have my water bottle in hand or sitting on the desk/table next to me. Sometimes I add slices of fruit or veggies to it give it a little flavor boost. I have also bought some of the True Lemon or True Lime flavorings. I have found that it is harder for me to drink cold water, especially in the winter, so I drink room temperature water unless it's a hot day or I'm working out. I hope you find some great tips to help you reach August water goal!
