I drink mine real cold straight out of the freezer. I read some where that ice cold water is better than room tempature cause the body flushes it out better therefore not leaving you with water retention.



Oh and I drink it out of the bottle it came in. That way when it's all gone I pick up another one.

I think that this has been the most difficult thing for me, is drinking the water. Though, I know it's the most important!!! On the days that I drink my water, I usually drink about 96 oz. (my husband drinks a full gallon), I feel the best when I drink that much, and am not hungry. There are days that I REALLY struggle to get down the first 32 oz. (that is the size of my container). I figure that drinking some, is better than none at all, but I'm going to try some of the different ways that you all do it!!! I drink mine room temperature usually too, though I do like it cold (I'll have to try it out of the freezer!!) People tell me that eventually, I will start to crave it, but I've been LC'ing for 2 months now, and I STILL HATE IT!!! LOL!!! Thanks for all your replies!! Heather

P.S. How much do you all drink a day??? Do you find that more or less than the recommended 64 oz. is what works best for you???
