Guest guest Posted June 4, 2006 Report Share Posted June 4, 2006 I too hate tap water, and want to drink Dasani. I justify my bottled water by thinking how much I spent on sodas, by the 12 pack, individually, and in 2 liter bottles Water by the case is less than soda. Also, if you live near a bottled water distributor, you can buy it cheaper from them. Re: UNGH , Forgive me if I've got you confused You're diabetic, correct? If so, frequent urination (and associated thirst) is oftena problem with diabetes - especially when BGs are higher than optimal. If you're just now getting your glucose under control this could be part of the 'going all the time' problem. Once you get things in check it should slack off some. SulaBlue > > I have a 36 oz mug. Well, it is like a mug, but easier to carry and doesn't spill. Oh I just looked on it and it says its called a mini jug. Well, any way it says on it to fill twice to get your daily 8 glasses of water in. So what I might do is like you said start slow and try to drink two of those jugs. Then I might increase it later to two and a half and then on to 3. Well, we'll see. I might be getting ahead of myself. So I will start by drinking the two full mini jugs. I only have one jug, but I might go to Bed Bath & Beyond where I got it and get another one that way I can have it already in the fridge and have it cold when I am ready for it. If I know how much to drink it will be easier. If I say well I need to drink two of those jugs then I think I will be able to do it. I already have to go to the bathroom a lot and I don't drink nearly as much water. So I am worried about going to have to go more and more. > > Also I have been buying water bottles in 12 bottle packs. It is just too expensive for me to keep doing that. Even though right now I don't like the taste of the water out of the tap I am going to try and drink it any way. Maybe I will get used to it and it will eventually taste good to me. > > from MO. > Re: UNGH > > > Start slowly...um, I think I've read that starting with a goal of 8 > glasses of water a day is good--then add another half a glass each > week.

Um, what would that be? 12 glasses? > > -Bonnie > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
