    I've never been a big water drinker. I barely get in 2 cups if that. The only time I really drink water is during and after my workout and it's usually from the water fountain at the gym which means it's probably like a few sips. Im still able to lose weight. I'm a sweet tea drinker. So I'm just curious to see if I'm the only one who feels this way. Your thoughts

    "Water" includes pretty much any fluid that is mostly water. If you must get your intake in the form of sweet tea, count the calories and go for it. But DRINK YOUR WATER in whatever form you can possibly manage it.

    When I switched from soda to straight water, I got a squeeze bottle of lemon juice and one of lime juice (the stuff that comes in the little bottles shaped like lemons and limes). A little spritz of that into a glass of water gave it at least SOME flavor, very few calories, and a little extra vitamin C that never hurt no one.

    Now I'm stylin' on straight water. But the splash of lemon and/or lime helped with the transition a lot.

    You can also use Crystal Light or similar flavoring packs, as long as you count the calories in them (if any!)
