    I find sparkling water really helps me drink, as plain old tap water is so boring! I agree, try flavouring it with mint, cucumber, lime, lemon, anything you like the flavour of. Also what about naturally caffeine free teas count towards your water intake, as well as normal tea and green tea. Just have a play about, you'll find something you like :)

    Omg I hate water! It's plain and blah! :| Besides adding it with crystal light or adding lemon cucumber and mint, is there anything else? Thanks :p

    I have a hard time drinking water too. Try hint water. It has fruit essence. It is refreshing and delicious. Im addicted.

    Do you like tea?!

    With sugar yes..loool is there teas with a natural sweet taste without adding sugar?

    hibiscus tea is naturally sweet. It is good iced or hot. Or you can add some stevia to any tea you like.

    here it goes. this is awesome, I've been drinking it for 2+ years now

    http://nutritionfacts.org/questions/what-do-you-drink-dr-greger/

    Make sure you read it all (it's short) and click on the link to the "better-than-green-tea" video link. Dr. Greger rocks! (and it even lets you use sweetener, just make sure its the one he recommends, erythritol - A Harmless Artificial Sweetener).

    I use to hate water myself but I slowly quit drinking all softdrinks and now I love water! I drink it everyday and it def helped me lose weight! You just have to make yourself do it. It really depends on how bad you want to lose weight! I did go to flavored water but not for long -- I drink water with every meal.. and then some!

    I personally drink water like there is nothing else (typically a bottle on my way to work, a bottle between each of my three breaks, a bottle on my drive home and another bottle or two at home, and by bottle I mean the 23.7 oz bottles...btw I know to much water can make you sick but my doctor already approved it). All my water doesn't include the tea and coffee I drink as well.

    My DH on the other hand can't stand it and he hates coffee. So, there are a few teas from Teavana that he likes (mainly like the fruit punch kind of flavor) so we go on their site every month or so and order what is on clearance (if he wont drink it I will, especially for the price of it). He also is very big on Crystal Light (even the off brands). Another thing is I have an infuser pitcher that I put what every fruit is in season in the center and let it sit in the fridge overnight and then take the infuser out and he will drink the water (he hates the fruit pieces so the infuser pitcher was a great buy for us). We also keep Mio in the house for on the go or in case we don't have any fruit at that time.

    Good luck and hope you are able to find something you enjoy.

    at night I like to drink licorice spice tea from Stash Teas. It is caffeine free, and has the natural sweetness from the licorice root, so it tastes sweet without adding sugar. Must like black licorice, though...

    Try buying a gallon of Crystal Geyser. Keep it on the kitchen counter with a glass. Every time you walk by, drink some. Every meal you make, drink a full glass.

    Nestle makes Pure Life Splash flavored waters, 0 calories. They sell them at Walmart. I like the Acai Grape one and the lemon one.
