    try this: put a jug of water in the fridge with a few slices of lemon, or lime, or cucumber, or strawberries, etc. not enough to turn the water color but just enough that when you drink it theres a hint of something there. if you want something stronger try the new MIO water flavorers

    i love those MIO's i use them in my water. i also like lemon, orange and cucumber slices. i've never tried it with ginger but it sounds good so i may give that a try as well.

    Time....It takes time but you will change. I love love love water and other than tea, coffee (and booze) don't drink anything else. I have no desire for soda anymore.

    I have the same problem, I really don't like water and don't seem to be able to get myself to drink it much, I start with the best of intentions but then slowly but surely I stop. My suggestion is to mix water or soda water with a splash of flavoured cordial or juice to give it a bit of flavour. Also you can do just about any herbal tea cold.

    I get water boredom too. I alternate between plain green tea and cups of water or I put a splash of lemon in my water so that it tastes a little bit different.

    I use a bit of sugar free squash in my water and the added taste helps

    I am also so sick of water and I don't really like it. I gave up diet soda all together so I drink flavored seltzer water and I brew Celestial Seasonings True Blueberry tea and chill it and use have the unsweetened ice tea in my water bottle for the gym and all throughout the day.

    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:

    What a great idea!! I buy the Peppermint Tea Bags...could I do the same with these????

    I loved the Mint Tea in Morrocco and always thought that it would have been nice Cold!

    I am on day 6 of no more diet coke...it was really hard the first couple of days but much better now. I too struggle with water...but forcing myself to drink more. I also like la croix...flavored sparkling water all natural. Good!

    I haven't had a soda since Feburary, but it is still hard sometimes not to reach for one. My husband drinks Mt. Dews like they are water. When I first wanted to quit drinking sodas I found a drink called Fuze. They have some that only have a total of 10 calories in each one. They are really good and come in different flavors. I haven't had any of that in a while either. I just drink water and 1% milk now. I really like the walmart brand cherry drink mix. Hope that helps. You can do it!!

    I personaly dont like the taste.. or lack of taste from water,
    but when I stick a bottle of water in the freezer for a few minutes It tends to not be as bad, and drinking cold water burns more carbs because your body has to work to maintain a normal temperature
