My problem is that I find myself the thirstiest right before bed. I will drink two or three large glasses of plain tap water to try and quench my thirst. Now, I just fill a large Big Gulp cup with crushed ice and water. I drink it and refill it until the ice melts and there is no more ice. Oddly, I think I must get a lot of water in my... if, and that's a very big "if," I can refrain from pouring Diet Coke in the Big Gulp cup in between refills.

I soon found I was drinking more than a gallon of water a day! Also, I recently started adding Benefiber to my water bottles because I was trying to increase my fiber intake. It totally dissolves and you can't taste it at all. I get the big container at Costco.

I find I can drink more at a time this way and I've actually learned to like it better than ice water. I drink my water at room temperature – not cold.
