So since I have written the original post I still struggle to drink the water. Even with seeing the great results it still is not as easy as pie. For me I am starting to really notice for some reason I find the texture of water odd in my mouth. I can drink a lake worth of crystal lite or coffee(even black, no sweetener) but I almost have to gag the first 4 cups down. After that I can manage to get my allotment in but sometimes I end up waiting all day until bedtime to drink as I am dreading the feeling of the water. I get flashbacks to having to take cod liver oil as a child because I feel the exact same way. Anyhow then I have an uncomfortable sleep because I am too tired to get out of bed in the middle of the night to use the washroom so I toss and turn all night. Very stupid of me, but just my mindset.
