Beware artificial sweeteners 

It depends what you mean by enhancers. Lemon or fruit? Go for it! Artificial sweeteners like Mio? I'd probably pass. I think the less artificially sweet things you eat/drink, the less you crave sweet foods. And the more plane water you drink, the more you will like it, it just takes an adjustment period.  

I know SW, but I've been drinking them for 20+ years already!! I know it's not as good as plain H20, but it's better than Diet Coke! 

Its really not better..  

I drink it "straight up" , LOL, but I think it is Ok to add no cal and no sugar flavor. 

its better than not drinking water at all 

Ugh! Guess I better start weening myself off!! Thanks all! 

That was my thought exactly, Kik! 

Have you considered just adding a squirt of lemon or lime? Still 

Sorry, my computer has a mind of its own today! Trying to say, it might add a calorie or two, but you don't need much, and the natural juice is better for you than the "fake" stuff!  

I use crystal light or walmart brand fruit punch. We add 1 6oz. can of pineapple juice to a gallon. Tastes great and very low cal. 

thats one 6oz can of pineapple juice.  

Drink what you want to drink... I prefer a green tea lime arnold palmer 

Thanks everyone! 

I try to limit the amount of flavor enhancers I use. I will have one diet soda a week and 1-2 of my 6 bottles of water I add flavor to just mix it up a little. Drinking water all the time gets boring to me and makes me drink less of it, so adding a little flavor gets me to drink more. 

I'm gonna try that Matt. Thanks. But I skip the diet soda. 

By the way Ray, I get the Walmart lemonade and squeeze a couple of oranges in. They drop the halves in there and it tastes great! 

I love water. It's the Only thing I drink, and 2 black coffees per day. Had to get used to it though, forty years ago. 

Drinking water and black coffee really goes a long way to help your diet. Give your self a month of nothing but water and black coffee you will see a difference. if you have a craving take a sip of soda only and move on. Unsweet tea works the same, but I just prefer coffee. 

All I drink is water based drinks. Except for 2 tbsp of FAT FREE creamer in my coffee. I just like flavor sometimes. I'm working on moving to black only but that could take some time...
