    4/12 -- 5 cups of water. All at work, 1 with Crystal Light
    4/13 -- 2 cups of water. Bad day for me :-(

    I'm loving the Crystal Light, too. Actually, Great Value brand iced tea flavoring with peach. It grows on me.

    I drank water while watching TV last night which got me over 8.

    That's a great idea. I'll have to do that to keep from getting munchy cravings.

    I'm going to try this. I just can't stand water but I know I need to drink more of it.
    Today 6 cups..normally I'm lucky to get 3 cups.

    Somtimes it helps with nightime cravings. Sadly last night the cravings won despite the extra water.

    When I am not trying to drink more, I often found my total at the end of the day was only 3 or 4.

    4/10 -- 5 cups of water. 3 at work and 2 at home flavored with Crystal Light.

    4/15 -- 6 cups of water. 2 flavored with Crystal Light
    4/16 -- 6 cups of water, 4 flavored with Crystal Light. It was a training day so all I had to do all day was sit and to prevent boredom and falling asleep I made sure I kept my water bottle full. I felt like I was going to float away at the end of the day :)
