I hate drinking water. I am trying to drink more but I am lucky If I get one 20 oz bottle a day which probably isn't even 20 oz because I share with DD.

Ugh. Water is just so boring.

I love water! 

I hate coffee. Any and all kinds. If something has coffee in it, I know it, and I hate it. Doesn't matter how much fun flavors I put in it, I don't like it.

Jumping in from GP-

Tea is actually a diuretic and can dehydrate you. Have you tried flavored water, crystal light, mio, or even trying to put a little lemon juice in it? If I don't want plain water sometimes I will squirt some lemon juice and or put frozen blueberries in. It's an incentive for me to drink the water to get to the blueberries.

Ill go back to lurking now :-)

I used to never drink water, but now I drink at least 64 oz a day.  Lately though, I have been way thirstier and have been drinking a lot more.

I agree, I hate anything coffee or coffee flavored!  Except tiramisu (sp?)!

It can also lower your iron count (hemoglobin/hematocrit). most of the time it isn't that big of an issue, just lowers it enough where you can't donate blood *I say this knowing I'm on GP, and yall wont be donating lol.

When working at the blood center, we had a lot of females that couldn't donate because of low iron, and about 8 out of 10 times, it was because they were tea drinkers.

Yeah every now and then I can get into flavored waters but I swear they change them all the time so they never stay tasting the same.

I was really good while pregnant with drinking water...I just have trouble being motivated to drink it.
