I can honestly say that everything this thread says is true. I have been doing this for about 6 weeks and it is the best thing I have ever done.

a very cool thread! It does make it a little easier to drink the water. I have such a hard time fitting all the water into my stomach I feel like it is going to burst. Does anyone know why cold water works better than warm? Is it better to drink and tank water like cavemen did or drink it out through the whole day?
thanks

I'm new, but I'm signing. Thank you so much for that. A lot of the info, I already knew, but it's always good to be reminded and there was some things in there that I didn't know. And the whole thing about drinking a quart in the morning, one at lunch, and one in the evening, I'm going to try. I've NEVER been good about drinking water. Even though I know how important it is. I'll bet you I STAY dehydrated all the time, b/c I'm never thirsty. Well now I understand why. I'm going to try that regimine and if I treat it as though I'm taking a medication, maybe my natural thirst will return.

Thanks again! I can tell A LOT of hard work went into it!

Im signing in too! That is a great read! I use the Aquafina 1 liter water bottle, it has a wide mouth so you can put ice cubes in it and if you drink 3 of those you have your 64oz for the day but I ususall exceed that daily easily. As for cold water vs room temp, it takes more calories for your body to heat up the water to body temp to use it so you are burning calories heating the water to use it if you drink cold water. I dont know about you, but I want to burn all the calories I can in a day so I drink it ice cold all the time. Drink up ladies and gents!

Great Post! I normally buy the water bottles at Costco (35 - 16.5 oz bottles for about $7) I drink about 8 or more per day. Even my husband has been converted to drinking lots of water.
