Some current research is saying that our body functions best when we drink 1/2 an oz per pound we weigh. So, for example, if you weigh 120 lbs, drinking 60 oz is great.

I really just think it's whatever makes you feel best. I feel best when I have upwards of 90-100 oz a day.

i have a reusable bottle and i put rubber bands on it. each rubber band signifies a bottle of water. after i drink one bottle i take one band off then refil. once they are all gone you know you have had your daily water.

this was my thought as well. buy cases of bottled water and have them placed on the living room table, next to the bed, in your car...and throw out your pop...or drink faygo. it's caffiene free.

don't forget to recycle the water bottles.

I needed desperately to get water back into my diet, so I started getting water flavoring to make me drink it. When I got ill several years ago, water would upset my stomach and I ended up avoiding it for so long. So I began using Mio -- I've tried several flavors & I have the black cherry energy one right now and love it.

What I do is boil a gallon of water (to get rid of as much of the nasties as possible) and then put it in a pitcher and keep it in the fridge. This also helps me to keep up with how much I'm drinking weekly. I had to boil a whole new pitcher today, so that means I have been going through a gallon & a half every week! Mio is the only thing that helped me get water back into my diet and you wouldn't believe the changes in my skin and everything! I'm working on getting even more into my diet, but I'm also drinking a cup of coffee a day, a Dr. Pepper & a glass of Kefir & by the time the day's over, I often don't want to drink anything else.

Mio can be found at almost any gas station or grocery store. I like that it's not as unhealthy as Kool Aid or something. If you don't want to pay $3 for the little tube it comes in, you could always add drops of lemon to water, if that would do it for you. It's not enough to make me drink water, but it'll do it for some people.

PS. Mio comes in many different flavors. You can always add your own homemade flavoring if you're creative enough. My next goal is to start making distilled water (gets rid of the fluoride & I'm trying to go as fluoride free as humanly possible because it's so extremely dangerous. I've even quit toothpaste and haven't touched the gross shit since early August.)

good idea!

I have to pay a deposit on every bottle. I'd rather use a Brita filter than have to recycle bottles all the time.
