I hate drinking water

I am in the process of trying to loose a few pounds, and was told that I need to start drinking more water! Well H filled up a 32oz glass for me to drink on through out the day. And I am not even 1/3 of the way through it and I have been sipping on it for over 2 hrs. YUCK!! maybe it will bet better

Re: I hate drinking water

  • Have you tried the Crystal Light flavor packets?  They are pretty good.
  • NO I sure havn't but thats a great idea.
  • I started doing that about a year ago, but I still can't get it all down if it's not ice cold!  Now, though, I can tell on the weekends if I haven't had enough water for the day...so it does get easier.  Sometimes I even want just water, and I never thought I'd get to that point! 
  • I agree with Lindsey....I think the more you drink the easier it is.  I am drinking alot more water these days.  I am staying thirsty. 

    My MIL always uses those Crystal Light packets and she loves them.

  • i love water! however, the tap water where we live tastes funny so we have to have a filter in our fridge so it's quite annoying when it's not filled up.

    ditto the crystal light packets

  • ditto crystal light... Wyler's Light is good too :)

  • ugh, I wish I could drink those crystal light packets but it's made w/aspertame (sp?) or splenda which gives me headaches - so I have to have propel, vitamin water or something with flavor.  I'm not big on just plain ol water either unless I'm just VERY dehydrated.  DH thinks I'm crazy.
  • I hate drinking water as well. I can only drink it if it is filtered and flavored. That's why I have the PUR water filtration system that you can add flavoring in as you pour the water into the glass. It's awesome!

    We have that too!!!  I keep forgetting that I need a new flavor thing for it!!!

  • I'm trying to drink more water too and I confess that I don't like water. Try a squirt of lemon juice in it, that might help...I tend to just chug it down straight to get it over with. I'm trying to drink 32 oz a day too and so far I'm not doing it.
  • i never realized so many people dislike water (my dad is one of them) and the only time we can get him to drink any is if he's taking pills.

    i've got my 32 oz water bottle and try to drink 2 1/2 a day

  • I need to start doing this...
  • I love water!! I have to admit though sometimes I get tired of it! I love to drink it with a meal because it helps me not feel that horrible full feeling. If I drink a soft drink with a meal I feel awful afterwards.
  • I realized that I eat less when i drink water with my meal instead of soda or even juice. I plan on drinking more water this year also.
  • I am pushing myself to drink more water....I am ready for it to start getting easier now..lol!

    I think I am one of the few people who don't really like the crystal light packets.  They have a bunch of sodium in them...and I end up feeling bloated if I drink a ton of them :(

  • i had this problem myself. for a little bit of natural flavor i would cut up a lemon, and squeeze some lemon juice into my water. gives it just enough flavor to make me like it. :)
