I'm not a huge water fan either, but if you discipline yourself enough to changing something for the better, sometimes you start to enjoy it and when you go back to bad habits, it's not so good to you anymore. Prime example, my adoptive mom is diabetic, so she started drinking coffee without sugar, unsweet tea, etc. At first it was a big struggle, now she can't stand coffee with sugar, cause I got her some diabetic sugar substitute and she hated it, she even tried a sip of my coffee with real sugar and hated it. For me, I stopped caffeine all together about 2 years or so ago, it was a struggle at first, I got headaches for a week or so, after that I was fine. I drink decaf coffee, tea, sodas, etc. and if I drink some with caffeine, it keeps me up all night with just one and I get an upset stomach! Now that I drink mainly water, I will have 2 liters or more of water per day, 1 soda per day or a glass of tea, and maybe orange juice in the morning. Yes I go to the bathroom often lol. But now when I drink more than 1 soda, I start to feel dehydrated! Oh and I hate plain water lol only time I drink plain water is when I workout! Otherwise I put flavoring packages in my water, like crystal light, propel, etc. I put one or two packs per 1 liter of water (I have a refillable 1 liter water bottle, I fill it up twice a day). So yes I am normally drinking room temperature water, when I first fill it up it's pretty cold, I have a water filter thingy in my fridge door, but I don't always drink the whole bottle right away, so it ends up turning room temp. But yea, on days I don't workout I drink 2 liters, on workout days anywhere from 3 to 4 liters, I have asthma so I'm constantly drinking water while doing cardio, it keeps my attacks down. But trust me, it's the water that gets the swelling. I stopped drinking water for a while and noticed the difference.
