    8 cups of water = 4 pints = 2 quarts = 1/2 gallon

    I, too, find it challenging to drink that much water daily.:smile:

    I know its hard to drink that much water, but It's amazing how much it helps with the weight loss. I find it eaiest to drink the most in the morning, before noon. I try for a least 3 bottles before lunch, and then the rest throughout the day, that way im not getting up several times during the night.

    Let me start by saying I DO NOT enjoy water. I also struggled with my water consumption initially. I am not a huge fan! However... With that being said, I have found a few things that have helped. First, I love Mio drops.

    Second, I got myself some bottled water in 8 oz size bottles. This way I don't have to drink more than 64 oz per day. Beginning around 7 am I drink 8 oz every 2 (sometimes 3) hours. If I do it every 2 hrs starting at 7 am, I am having my 8th water at 9 pm. By spreading it throughout the day and in such small quantities at a time, I have been able to make it more manageable. I probably use Mio drops in about half of my water. By the way, I am cheap so I refill my water bottles and stick them in the fridge to reuse so I don't have to buy more so often. For me it's just convenient to have the 8 oz bottles.

    Thirdly I find that drinking my water as hot tea, or really cold with ice cubes makes the water easier to get down.

    I hope that helps!
