In my journal I keep track of my water to make sure I drink all eight 8oz glasses for the day. The easiest for me it to fill 4 bottles with water, the kind that you can get bottle water or soda in. They hold 16 oz or more apiece, Drinking four containers as opposed to drinking 8 seems to fool the mind into thinking "that's not that much, I can drink that" I take two bottes to work with me and leave on my desk to remind me that they have to be gone by the time I leave the office. And in the morning I have a bottle while I am getting ready for work. And at night, I have a bottle with dinner. Give it a try, works for me. 

I wouldn't worry too much, just do what you can take in comfortably, you don't want to make it a big burden I believe 

When I first started I wasn't a big water drinker. I tried just about everything to get the water "in." A couple of my tricks included adding ice to the water (makes it taste fresher, refreshing), freezing the water (as the water melts I drank up the liquid, like a little game. never letting the water sit in the container), adding crystal light, adding lemon, hot water and lemon (cleans out the liver and kidney too), buying myself a REALLY pretty 2 liter nalgene container (I have four now), make a mental rule that I HAVE to finish X amount of water by X time and then when I did giving myself a treat like buying a new gel pen or something, this can also be worked into other things,like - finish X amount of water by the time I go home from work, finish X amount of water by the time this movie is over.... you get the idea.:) 

Oh just wanted to let you know that NOW I drink a minimum of 4 liters a day and I drink it clear and cold. 

drink a cold glass of water when you wake up in the morning and if you like bottled water drink a 20 oz. bottle and there you have 2.5 glasses in 1 bottle.
