    I sometimes add a packet of Crystal Light to my water for a little flavor. Only 5 calories and tastes great!

    Using a straw usually helps you drink more :)

    Honestly you may just have to power through for a while. I MADE myself drink enough water for 4 days or so... nothing but water, and as much as I could drink and feel hydrated. Now, I prefer water and I drink enough on my own :) I just start to feel when I'm getting dehydrated.

    Okay, so along with the straw idea. I found that I would drink a whole lot more water when I drank from a water bottle that had a straw type opening (so you tilt your head down to take a sip, not up).

    The reason this works is because when you tilt your head back, your throat closes. When you tilt forward, it opens up. There's a company called "Nathan" that makes non-pbha bottles with a straw-type sip valve.

    I found that I could feel the good feeling of my body receiving the water when I drank deeply from the straw, much better than when I had to tilt my head back to take a drink--that felt like work.

    Try, Lemon, oranges in your water. That helps. I have to drink PH 7 water -no flavoring. I just drink on it all day long-always-have water with me at my computer, end tables, and in the car.
