I am SO tired of drinking water. It seems like lately I have to make myself drink it. I have tried using the crystal light packets, but after a while I also get sick of them as well. I love coke, but I have not had one in weeks!! I refuse to drink anything DIET bc its not good for you and even though its a "diet" anything, its still not good for you. Someone please please please help me out or give me some ideas!! Thanks!!

CVS flavored fiber waters--I love Cranberry Pomegranate an my husband loves Strawberry Lemonade--and it'll help with your daily fiber intake.0

Sorry, can't really help you there, water for me is the best drink in the world and the only thing that will fully satisfy my thirst. I wouldn't trade a glass of water for a bottle of coke any day.0

For me, I have substituted some of the powerade or vitamin water zeros...but make sure at least HALF is actual water. Try adding a little lemon or lime (juice or slices) to your water. That helps me too.0

Hi - lately I've been brewing peppermint tea and then putting it over ice. Tingly and refreshing, one teaspoon of sugar add 15 cals......
and for me has been a little diuretic. :bigsmile:0 -
My only advice is to just stick with it. Eventually you WILL get used to the water and then you will crave water above everything else and it will cease to be a problem.
I drink plain hot herbal tea when I want something special. Other then that, it's water. And I don't want anything else.0 -
Moderation is the key have a coke now and then0

Thanks! The peppermint tea deal actually sounds tasty and I love peppermint. Where can I find this at?0

Herbal tea??
I generally drink cold green tea all day now rather than plain water. But green tea itself can be boring so I add lemon, lime, or orange juice. Or I'll add random herbal tea bags. I have a few that I absolutely LOVE such as a peach raspberry one and a pomegranate blueberry white tea and such like that.0 -
flavored carbonated water is my fav when i need a soda fix! or add lemon to ur water some people i know add cucumber slices0

Well like I said I haven't had one in a while which is good for me bc my hubby would pick me one up everyday after work, he works the night shift. And the last time I had one I couldn't even finish it and I was surprised.0

Stick with it...you need the water. Try some flavored waters, Sobe water, and G2....your body will thank you for it

I like to put lemon slices in it if It gets boring. Oh and mint!! Totally helps!0

I have a problem drinking only water...it hurts my stomach...even when I drink it slow and lukewarm. I use Crystal Light the Wild Strawberry (energy) flavor...I put half a packet in a 16 oz bottle of water. It's refreshing. But I know some people don't like Crystal Light...just my two cents.0

Same...I love water..I choose water over everything else as well.0 -
I went to a nutritionist some time back she said 1 8oz glass of water for every 25 lbs of body weight is fine.
So no need to force feed water.
I'm with you on the no DIET COKE because of all the horrible chemicals. But that goes for most artificial sweteners. So I'd watch crystal light too. I've heard they've come out with a crystal light natural.
I use TRUE LIME, TRUE LEMON or TRUE ORANGE really just plain juice powdered.... I think now I'll have to go double check the package.0 -
You can make fresh mint tea...green tea or black tea, fresh mint and stevia.
Good Earth makes a good tea...Sweet and Spicy0 -
I like sparking water (I add some fruit slices to make it fancy). I also find that it's much easier to drink the water I need if I eliminate other drinks (like iced tea even though it has no calories) and spread it out throught the day. If I drink two cups with each meal, and try to get a glass between meals when I think of it, I usually end up over 8 a day.0

I am addicted to regular home made iced tea, with sweetener (not sugar). That counts, right?0

Since it has been proven to have health benefits try boiling cinnamon sticks for approximately 30 minutes, cool and chill overnight in a ice tea jar. Pour over ice (you can add a sugar subsittute) and enjoy the benefits of success!:flowerforyou:
