Fennela, when I started (both times) I hated water and the thought of drinking so much a day made me physically ill. But I started my day with my coffee (still my vice) and filled up a large glass of water with it. I would take one sip every couple of minutes. Not a big "quench your thirst" type gulp--just a sip. And I tried to do it often. After awhile drinking plain water, I actually got thirstier for it (this took a couple of weeks). My bottle or glass follows me everywhere. I use a Pur filter so it tastes clean. There is almost a faintly sweet taste to good water. I would still prefer to be drinking something else most of the time, but water has become such a habit now that I don't mind it. It does take a conscious effort to get used to it, but it will make a difference in your weigh ins. Now go fill up that glass!
