When I first started dieting - when I was about 5 years old....I hated water and my Mom used to put a drip of fresh squeezed lemon or lime in the water.
When I began Medifasting, it
killed me to drink water, too.
I just didn't drink much of anything - maybe one cup of coffee per day. I started off with lemon juice in the water bottle. It helped me tremendously.
Minute Maid has a excellent product available in most freezer sections of the grocery store: 100% frozen lemon juice. It comes in a yellow plastic bottle with a flip top squeezer lid, packaged in a black and yellow box. Sometimes it is located near the frozen fish if you cannot find it by the frozen juices.
Drink as much water as you are able - this may take a few weeks to get used to. You are making a lot of changes right now and it all doesn't happen over night.
As you are able, de-pop yourself - you will eliminate sodium, food coloring and additives. Replace what you are able with water and eventually you will be up to 8 glasses + of water and be searching for more. Some days I feel like a camel, and I don't mean a ciggy...
