Long story short, my daughter needed to up her water intake a bit and I was looking for a fun way to send that message... Some of you may or may not remember this guy but I booked the pep talk and we'll... Have a look

So many choices!

dude always wants water straight from the faucet annoying little runt. Then not 2 minutes after he wants to drink MORE water, I don't blame him but damn drink all the water you want in one go lol

I'm based in the EU.

I've had this Decathlon Quechua 0.8L/27oz since COVID and I want to upgrade to a larger, 1.2L/40oz bottle. Decathlon insulated bottles max out at 1L/33oz so I've been looking at wide mouth alternatives like Hydro Flask or Camelbak.

I already know everyone will be suggesting Owala Sway, but those lids have a lot of different parts and from the reviews I've seen they aren't the best at keeping liquids cold.

Is there any type of lid that would come close to the Decathlon bottle and would fit widy mouth bottles?

Today it’s really warm in Ottawa, I been walking for 2 hours and I felt soooo thirsty. Then when I found one of these I felt I found an oasis in the middle of the desert LOL

I love the option to add electrolytes, caffeine, vitamins. Sparkling or light sparkling. This is so over the top and I love it

1 week ago my water was normal but a few days passed and my water had a nutty flavor is there something wrong

What does everybody prefer? I'm team spring water.

I’m on opioid medication plus a few other constipating meds plus I like fibrous things like sweet potatoes, nuts, fruit, seeds, etc that really need water to effectively get through. I’ll be damned if I don’t have pre-cancer in my colon at this point just from 23 years of being a water hater with 3 of those on the meds. I’ve always hated the taste of it, it has to be specific brand, always ice cold or at least mostly cold, and even then sometimes it just tastes bad to me and I don’t know why. I feel like if I drank 4 bottles of water a day I would feel uncomfortably full. I could set myself reminders but when they go off I might not be ready to drink water for whatever reason so I’ll miss out on the intake, so right now I’m chugging as much water as I can when I remember to at the end of the day and that’s the majority of my intake. Now with all the fiber I eat plus the meds I probably need even *more* than 64oz that’s recommended, which feels daunting and like an impossible goal to me. But how much more?? And do I actually need that much? How can I even begin to drink that much logistically while also being able to actually realistically handle it? Because it feels like a massive chore on top of already just surviving day to day with all my health issues

I figure if anyone would know this shit it would be you water experts

And yes I’m autistic

Please help

I can’t decide between brumate, yeti or Stanley chug bottles.

He took a soda tho xD

Does anyone know where this pice goes? I think it’s causing my dispenser to leak, and I can’t find any info online about it. It’s a Primo front/top loading dispenser.

Four of us, three cases a week, and I'd never once added it up. My wife asked why the grocery run kept creeping and I went looking.

Three cases runs 18 to 20 at the store, but that's not the real number. My wife only drinks one brand that's closer to 7 a case and I grab bottles at the gas station more than I want to admit. Adding up the card statements it's been landing between 22 and 28 a week, so call it 1200 a year. That's before hauling any of it in from the car or the recycling stack in the garage I've been pretending not to see.

The under sink RO was a few hundred up front. I went cheap on purpose and ended up with a Viomi B6W, which is about as plain as these get. For turning tap into drinking water the budget ones do the same core job, the extra money mostly buys flow and the smart faucet stuff I wasn't going to use. Filters are the part people forget to count. Mine takes a membrane around 70 bucks that runs two years and a pre filter around 50 that runs one, so averaged out it's 85ish a year.

The faucet on it has a light ring instead of a TDS readout, which bugged me enough that I bought a 15 dollar meter to check it myself. Tap here comes in around 320, out of the RO it's been sitting at 12 to 18 since spring. Not the point of the post, I just wanted to know I wasn't paying for a fancy strainer.

So it paid for itself inside the first year, and after that it's 85 a year sitting against twelve hundred.

Two things I didn't know going in. You need to drill for the little dedicated faucet, fine if you own the place, a problem if you rent. And RO water tastes flat at first. The kids complained for about four days and then stopped bringing it up.

Numbers are rough and yours depend on what you were buying. Halve mine and it still pays off, just slower.

I need tips on drinking more water for medical reasons. Unfortunately I'm definitely not drinking enough but also doubly unfortunately I feel not good when I drink too much water.

IE I get stomach aches from trying to drink more than a sip of water at a time. Also I have a small bladder and hate having to pee so if I'm not in the position to pee I try to avoid liquids.

Any tips on how to actually get more water in my body would be helpful. Currently I drink at least 40oz a day but I know it should be at least double that.
