I fill up a 44oz cup at work, and make sure to drink the whole thing while at work. I fill it up again and drink another 22oz before I leave work. I drink the remaining 22oz at home, and then I fill it up again during my workout, and just continue to drink it throughout the remainder of the day. It's easy to get the water in on workdays, weekends are a little tougher, but I did well this weekend.0

I am finding that drinking 8 glasses of water a day is challenging, but the idea of having to enter a "zero" into the challenge spreadsheet is so appalling that I am ensuring I get all of my water in each day. Monday, I barely made it through the 8, yesterday, I drank 9 and today, I am unsure how many I will get but know I will not allow myself to go to bed until I have finished all 8. I refuse to enter a zero on the worksheet -- I will meet the challenge!
Wow, i feel the same way too. The idea of entering a zero is disturbing to me. I cannot go to bed now without finishing my 64 oz. since this challenge. I am proud of myself and everyone else. We will suceed!0 -
Our city water doesn't taste good, so I buy bottled water. (I know, I know.) I use bottles that hold 16.9 oz. When I wake up, take one out, and gulp it down. Then I set 3 bottles in a special section of the fridge, and label the caps: 2, 3 and 4. Everyone knows to not touch my bottles! If I do that, I have no problem getting in my eight cups. If I don't, I struggle to remember how many I've had. Dumb, but it works for me!0

I have to admit I'm struggling a bit, but I've been successful 2/3 days so far. I have horrible tap water, so I thought bottled water would be better. Um... Meijer has HORRIBLE drinking water, and I feel like vomiting while drinking it. So now, I'm going to either buy a Brita pitcher or get some limes.0

I am struggling. I already hate water. It makes me gag but I am trying Crystal light with it. My doc says as long as I am doing that I am fine. Can't wait for the next challenge.

there are sooooo many water filters out there. There's whole house filters that cost about $30 if you own your own home. There are pur and brita pitcher filters and ones that go onto the faucet. All of these filters come with the filter inserts that cleanse the water of bad tastes. It is much cheaper and environmentally friendly than bottled water.
Crystal light is good stuff. I love their peach tea flavor, but they do have some with caffine and some without and all are decent flavors. Its how my daughter gets her 6-8 glasses a day since she doesnt liek water either.0 -

I like water, don't get me wrong. My tap water tastes like slimy dead fish, and this Meijer bottled water, I can't even begin to describe what it tastes like except nastiness (eight down; 40 to go with those packs >.<). Dannon Pure Life is good, but Meijer was the one on sale. XD And since I'm the only in my family trying to lose weight (I'm a fat girl surrounded by skinny people!), a pitcher makes sense since I'm the only one drinking the water anyway.

I started drinking more water just before we started this challenge so it's not been too difficult for me (I always have a lemon slice in mine). But before, I was lucky if I drank 100mls of water a day plus I was drinking too much coffee. I just saw a urologist last week as they discovered I have a kidney stone and he told me that years of being chronically dehydrated probably caused the formation of the stone...lesson learned.0

That's how I drink more water too! I always heard you drink booze faster through a straw, so I decided to apply it to water. It works!0

If all the challenges were as easy for me as this water one, I'm going to ace this challenge!
I pretty much only drink water--all day, especially when exercising, so this is an easy one. Wonder what's coming next...??0 -
I keep a 33 oz bottle on my desk - I tried to drink one in the morning before lunch and one after lunch. Since the challenge I have made sure to get the total in and i have also been adding a third bottle when i workout:)0
