Last week I was standing in the break room at work watching a coworker fill up her water bottle. The bottle caught my eye instantly because it had a really nice pattern on it. I had to comment on it naturally. She raved about how she loved it and she felt like she drank more water when she used it. I thought back to my recent attempt to drink more water, remembering I was failing miserably. I was only using a throw away plastic cup that my employer offered us. She really had me thinking about the water bottle appearance. I went home that night and found one of my water bottles I used to use all the time, but was slacking in bringing it to work with me everyday. I decided to bring it in and see if that theory had any truth to it.
For the past week I left my water bottle at work in order to not fall back into using the plastic throw away cup. I noticed I was drinking more water, and was close to reaching the water intake goal I was striving for. I found myself drinking more frequently and leaving less and less water in the bottle at the end of the day.
What do you think? Do you think the appearance of your water bottle could improve your water intake?
If you do a search on the internet you can find hundreds upon hundreds of manufacturers who cater to those in search for the perfect water bottle. You can get a bottle in just about any shape or color you could imagine. Some also come with some fancy accessories like filters and infusers. If you don't believe me, take a quick search. I'll wait. So what did you find? I'm sure it was a bit overwhelming, but your perfect bottle is out there!

In honor of drinking more water, I have selected a few fun water bottles I liked just to give as an example of what you can find. Now get out there and find a bottle you love! The quicker you do, the more water you will be drinking! (Btw I am not sure why the bottle on the left bottom has a darker background.. maybe it wants to stand out and be unique.. lol)
