Yeah, I'm completely addicted to water. After being soda free and all for over a year, anytime I try to drink a soda it kills my stomach. O_o Nasty stuff those sodas.

Coffee is kinda' iffy for me. Depends on the mix.

I've been about 95% soda free for three or four years now. I only drink it very rarely. I'm definitely that first option...I'm a pure water addict.

I love soda AND water. :lol: I tote around a water bottle with me most of the time, and I drink soda or tea when I don't have ready access to water bottles.

And yes, it HAS to be in a bottle. Don't ask why.

I'm not really a pop person... if anything, ice tea^^

Only SOMETIMES do I get into super-thirsty-I-need-water-NOW!!! phases... and usually in the summer anyhow^^

So therefore, I don't nearly enough water as I should^^ Just doesn't taste good unless you actually are thirsty/need something cold to go down your throat :/

On a recent camp I was on, I was remarkably thirsty, even though I aimed to drink two cups of water or cordial every meal time (breakfast, morning tea, lunch, afternoon tea, tea). You can't really just drink water anytime you want because there are planned activities, so you have to "stock up". Even so, I did get kinda thirsty.

I love water more than any other drink. I'd have put I'm a total addict, but I'm kind of...forgetful. I'll get busy doing something, and I'll completely forget to drink any water(or anything else for that matter) and find myself having a thirst attack. When that happens, I can down over half a gallon easy.

I'm working on being less forgetful, though. Especially since learning that most people in the US are chronically dehydrated, even though you can't tell just looking at them. I don't want to be dehydrated, and water tastes so good anyway.

Oh, and I filter my water so that no matter how the regular water tastes what I drink is totally awesome. That's a no-brainer in my book.

I usually drink only water and orange juice and green tea. Sometimes I'll drink a soda in school though.

After finding out I had ELEVEN cavities from drinking too many powerades and sodas I've stuck to water! I'm also a cross-country runner and track runner so I have to drink water constantly anyway, and that's something that I always seem to a craving for now.

for all you (tap) water lovers, here's somthing to think about:

currently, many cities inject floride into the water. Floride may be good ON your teeth, but it can be hazardous when ingested. Floride can cause diseases such as dental florosis (yellowed, brittle teeth) as well as is cited as a major source of cancer by the director of the american cancer association. In fact, flouride is called a "prescription drug" by the FDA, and classified as hazardous waste for disposal. This is what is being injected ino your water system - the hazardous waste called floride. Furthermore, studies have shown that floridated water has no or negible effect on cavity proevention when ingested.

Where does this floride come from? it is scraped off of smokestacks of phosphorus (i believe it's phosperous) processing plants, and then injected into the city water. This floride also contains arsenic and trace lead. Don't believe me? I can give sources, if need be :)

Still like water? ;)

Ahem, I drink bottled or distilled water. The former is a bit inconvenient, but it works at college. At home, it's distilled all the water. Takes out all the nasty well-water related crap. City water just scares me. <.<

I hadn't bothered to do much research on this... because, I drink only distilled and bottled water, anyway. But, technically, isn't this still under debate or something? I mean, cause if it isn't... why the HECK is it still in the water?

Then again, there are already a good number of toxins in our processed foods, etc.

Nevetheless, got links?

To which I say...bottled water? Is anyone selling bottled air to you morons yet?

(Note: This is a quote from a movie or TV show, I can't remember, and am in no way implying that anyone who drinks bottled water is a moron. However, do note that Evian, a popular brand of bottled water, is "naive" spelled backwards ;))
