It can be hard to get enough water throughout the day, I totally get it. Since I workout first thing, I start my day with a bottle of water but next thing I know, it’s lunch time and I’ve only been drinking coffee. Upon the realization, I start chugging but I thought it would be fun today to get some tips on drinking water from some of my fellow bloggers. We all have tips that work for us so I hope you’re able to find one that works for you!
-Add lemon, berries, mint or cucumbers. If you’re not a “plain” water fan, try adding some fruit for a little flavor boost!
from ME 🙂
-Have a glass of water anything you have something else to drink (coffee, soda, wine). “If I have to drink water anyway, I might as well JUST have water and skip the other.”
from Jessica at Little More Each Day
-Drink a bottle of water before having coffee in the morning.
from Dani at Weight Off My Shoulders
-Drag a water bottle around with you everywhere you go.
from Farrah at Fairy Burger
-Use a water bottle with a squeeze top. “The water goes down quick and easy.”
from Jes at Running Yogi
-Use an app! “I have an app called Waterlogged and I love it! I set my goal and then it sends me reminders throughout the day.”
from Nicole at Just Glass On The Outside
What are your top tips for drinking enough water throughout the day?
Water through a straw is my saving grace! I keep it next to me all the time so that whenever I need a mindless break, I can just sip that and not even think about it! Awesome tips. 🙂

Great tips! I’m horrible at drinking enough water throughout the day. BUT, I did just get myself into the habit of replacing Pepsi with water so it’s baby steps haha I try to only buy bottles of water nowadays so that I always have them around me.
I always force myself to drink a big glass of water first thing in the morning, I’m going to have to try some of these other tips!

I always drink a full tumbler before my coffee! I am far more likely to drink more during the day
Great tips – I always start and end the day with a large glass of lemon water 🙂
Awesome tips! Thanks for sharing – I’ve been struggling with drinking more water. Well, coffee’s kind of water.. right?
I always drink water with lemon before I have my coffee or breakfast. I am a lemon fan, always have lemon juice in the house to add to my water. If I am not drinking water it is zero calorie seltzer. Thankfully I hate soda! 🙂

I have such a hard time with drinking water!
I needed this post! I really am terrible about water intake. I have tried adding lemon and other fruits before. It’s help, but I still lose interest. Need to work on this.

Yes, great ideas for drinking more water. I want to try infusing water with fruit.
I need to be drinking more water for sure! I think I’ll try out the app!
I need to work on staying hydrated in the mornings as well. That coffee is just so good, but I am trying to drink a cup of water before starting in on my coffee.

I definitely take a bottle EVERYWHERE with me! (def a great excuse to get a cute water bottle and a cute tote bag that fits everything in it 😉 ) My downfall right now is drinking it with coffee. I try to, but I always suck down the coffee a lot faster. I’m really good about drinking water with my wine though!

I am terrible at drinking water. But if I add cucumber, strawberry, lemon, lime, and/or mint I will likely drink more. 🙂

I like these tips! I usually carry a refillable water bottle with me, but I don’t always drink as much as I should. I am very guilty of only drinking coffee in the mornings, as well.
I keep a water bottle with me, and I drink a lot of decaff beverages. Also, veggies are a great way to get water in!

I have been known to drink a glass of water after every “fun” drink and I swear by it! I also like the bottles with the reminders on them. I feel like I am good while I am at the gym, but I often forget when I get back to the house. I love all of these types!
Oh my goodness!. One of my biggest struggles is drinking water. Always whining about it on Facebook. Thank you for this quick and dirty list.
I do like the point of drinking it around with you everywhere you go. That one has really help me
Thanks for sharing this!! I’m SO bad about drinking water, like actually horrendously awful. But I do find if I drag a bottle of water with me everywhere I go I’m more likely to drink it. It’s about the only way. I don’t know why, but I never feel super thirsty so I just don’t drink it and then it’s the end of the day and I’ve realized I’ve drunk like 2 glasses and that’s it!
I used to drink no plain water and now I do I can’t believe I survived without it lol!
I keep my nalgene bottle out on my desk at work so I have to see it all day. It helps me to remember to keep drinking!

Awesome tips !! I have really been trying and doing better with my intake.
Great post on drinking water! Its so important for our health to continue to drink water, but yet so many people forget throughout the day! I drink water the moment I get up and I try to make sure I don’t forget throughout the day…I always feel so much better!

I totally agree with having a glass of water every time you drink something else. I have a cute water glass that goes with me everywhere. If the water looks good, I’m more likely to drink out of it.

So important and really no excuse not to! Thanks for the tips.
A app is a great idea. I used to keep tally of how many glasses I drank throughout the day. Water is so important and I forget to keep up on my intake.
