I had a huge issue with water. I hate it. And i was a diet soda addict. Then about 5 days ago, I decided it was time to drink the amount of water I should be drinking, because of all the weight-loss benefits of it.
So, I began drinking 72 ounces a day. (About 65 MORE ounces than I was used to drinking...) I had a poland spring bottle, stuck a straw in it, (I tend to drink much more with a straw, lol don't ask me why) and I realized that in the last 5 days I have yet to touch ANYTHING except water. I think it's because for me, it's a lot of work to drink that much water. AND my face is much less swollen (even after eating high sodium things,) I feel great, and I'm losing much quicker!
So to everyone out there who hates water, (And i was a top notch water hater...) try to get past it, I never realized what a miracle it was!!

My whole life my parents used to yell at me, "DRINK WATER ROBIN!" and not so nicely. lol I HATED it. To this day I'm not even sure why but like 10 years ago or so I changed and I started drinking it willingly. At that time I still drank other stuff too a lot, like before I banned diet soda/Iced Tea from my diet a few years back. The past 3 years or so I've drank almost all water. It was probably being on my own and buying my own stuff. I realized if you give me individual bottles I'll drink them down. lol I'm kinda like a little kid when it comes to a lot of food things, & gimmicks help. But I'll tell ya, I'm definitely better off & have less problems since I drink so much water & almost nothing but. I used to have various urinary tract issues a lot ever since I was little. All the water seems to really prevent any of that. so they don't turn into doctor visits. Even when I was eating whatever the heck I wanted I will still mostly only drinking water. (and the junk my husband might buy) I don't really keep anything else in the house unless I'm having company. If I for some reason hardly have any on a particular day have a lot less than usual, I won't feel right.
Every now & then I will bust my parents chops and yell "Drink water, mom or dad" at them. lol
