Hi everyone, Just wondered if everyone else has trouble drinking enough water. I find it hard, and I lack natural thirst. I have been told I should drink at...
I'm drinking more water than I used to, but not near enough what I'm supposed to. Add lemon to the water you do drink. That's the only suggestion my doctor...
