I use an app on my phone, just to remind me to drink. I don't dislike water, and I don't drink anything else, other than the occasional glass of juice or milk. But I forget a lot, so I use the Plant Nanny app (you water a cute animated plant every time you drink and it eventually grows). I've also used the Hydro Coach app, too. I like them both.

I use bottled water, the 23.something size. In the morning, I get 3 bottles out and lay them out for the day, so I know when I got my water in. I also drink green tea, a few cups a day, but I don't count those. (Just so I don't interfere with my system.)
I use bottled water because I gave up diet coke, and I'm used to having a bottle in my hand! It makes it a little easier...0 -

I just looked up how much water I need to drink for my weight in order to be well hydrated. 268 ounces per day. That's 7 liters. Even figuring in liquids from cooking and the water in food, it's very difficult to get in more than 3 liters. This means I go around in a state of constant dehydration, I guess. :-/ Not good.
Do you all think that sounds about right? Or too extreme? Because if it's right I may as well start living in the bathroom because that's where I'm going to be spending most of my time.0 -

I worked mine out some weeks back, and had similar results. There's no way in hell that I can manage that much, so I always carry around a water 750ml water bottle, and try to keep it filled. If I'm walking around, I keep it in my bag so the weight reminds me to drink. At work, I keep it on my desk, right next to my computer monitor, so its always in sight.
I probably only get 3 litres of water per day, I doubt I could manage much more, but I figure its best to be getting some rather than none. But yes, like you, if I aim for 7, I best just tie myself to a tap, ha ha.

It's very important to drink as much water as you can. You can lose far more weight.0

It does make a difference. I read an article just lately that said if you drink more you'll go to the bathroom more, but only at first. Your body gradually adjusts and the bathroom visits will lessen. (and become more productive?
) I sure hope that's true. 0 -

I just downloaded Plant Nanny (thanks @smurphy90!). It gave me a goal of 126oz. I was aiming for 100oz, so I'll try to up my intake a bit.0
