    oh I can't stand water either, I feel like it's a chore to drink it but I know eventually I will learn to at least like it. I burp alot alot alot with it but not when I would drink coke. I'm so backwards. lol

    I am ot big on water either unless I am very thirsty. Two things that make water a bit easier to drink are a touch of lemon/lime & having it very cold. Also, I absolutely dispise water that comes from my faucet; even if it is filtered, it still tastes lousy. We have very hard water where I live, so it always tastes "chalky". As such, I need to drink bottled water that is softened.

    One more point on the lemon; rather than buying lemons/limes, you can purchase small packets of lemon/lime juice & they really do make the water more enjoyable to drink.
    I have very hard water and hate it out of the faucet too!! I got a britta water bottle with a built in filter and it is awesome!! I also like the MIO water flavorings... they are way better than the powders =) Mind over matter girly.... set an alarm and drink a glass when it goes off!

    Set an alarm and drink when it goes off! I like this! I may need to have a goal for myself like....two glasses by 10 AM, four glasses by 1 PM, ect...

    Haha! I was one of the girls who asked you that question ;-) I started using MIO a couple weeks ago and it's great. Zero calories! I was a big juice/soda drinker before I started MFP, but then I learned that if I watched my sodium and flushed it out with water, I was losing weight a lot faster and I felt great. Try lemon juice as well.
