Drinking Water Everyday
Do you get your recommended 8 glasses of water in a day? I'm starting to try--- I've gotten 5 so far. I just dont like the taste of it. I add in Crystal Light lemonade to make it taste better, plus it is sugar-free and only has 5 calories. Does anyone else drink Crystal Light? What are your favorite flavors?
Also, do you have tips to drink enough water each day?

Water, water, everywhere...
I do try, I tend to have a glass on the go wherever I am, and always a glass on the kitchen windowsill (not quite as bad as the girl in 'Signs'!) I quite like the taste of our tap water, but I can kind of relate because when we lived away the water was much softer it wasn't quite so nice, although I did get used to it eventually. Have you tried keeping a bottle in the fridge, sometimes tastes better that way. Also if you fill a 2 litre (4pint I guess?) bottle that's what you need for the day so you can work your way through your 'ration'. I even went through a phase of chucking in ice & a slice - felt a bit more glam that way.
Quite good you posted this because I was getting out of the habit, and I do feel better when I make the effort. I would say be careful with sugar free things if you are sipping through the day as they can be quite acidic, so although good for the waistline, not so good for your teeth
Good luck - bottoms up!

I love your comment about the
I love your comment about the girls on "Signs" hahaha! My sister is just as bad as that girl, except w/ water bottles
We always know when she's been to visit!
I haven't tried keeping a bottle in the fridge, but I do have the filtered tap water in there and that usually stays pretty cool. I like the idea of buying my "ration" for the day and making sure to get through it.
Agreed about being careful about sugarfree products. I'm a big believer in doing things in moderation though. Usually when I have a glass of Crystal Light I will have a glass of water afterwards. So the CL actually helps me drink more water. I'm very good about my teeth though so I won't worry too much about them being affected.
Bottoms up to you too!
