    People love to drink their water through straws, that seems to help get it down faster.

    When I'm not in a water mood I love club soda or seltzer, you can get them plain or flavored and there isn't much in those but water and bubbles.

    My husband won't drink water unless there is a gun to his head but I can get him to drink Crystal Light which isn't totally calorie free but it sure is better than juice or soda.

    Ok! I've seen that on commercials and actually wondered if it was tasty or not. I'll try it...thanks so much!

    Cosigning with the MIO Liquid enhancers. Bottle looks like a tear drop. All of the above natural suggestions are awesome too. I stick with Berry and Fruit Punch MIO b/c they're 0 everything. 2-3 half second squirts for a 16 oz glass/bottle of water is all you need if you absolutely can't get pure water down.

    crystal light makes these little packets i think they were called "pure" and they dont have that terrible "fake sugar aftertaste" in fact, i dont think they use any fake sugar .. hence no aftertaste.
    Good luck.

    I didn't know about this. I don't like to use crystal lights because of the fake sugars ( its really not water when you add them its splenda juice) but a natural alternative is something I would be interested in. Thanks!

    The MIO is good. I also found lemon & lime in the sugar aisle--I think it's called True Lemon (no artificial sweeteners). They are pretty good, very faint citrus taste so it's a subtle change. Good Luck

    any zero callorie flavoring is fine. But just tend to drink a little more plain water everyday so you can get used to it.

    Ok, everyone, I'm writing all of this down and will be making a trip to the grocery store at lunch today! Wish me luck....I've tried to start drinking water for a while now and just couldn't make myself do it. Maybe this will get me started! :wink:
