Why not water?

In the middle of January, I had come down with something.  I spent about four days in bed. My throat hurt from sinus drainage and as a result, I didn't eat much. I did however continuously drink ice water.
I realized dehydration or just plain not staying hydrated can make even the smallest amount of cellulite look worse.
I knew this because my legs looked great and because by the end of the four days I was being totally hydrated.

I told Don, while in school we learned in History that Ponce De Leon was looking for the fountain of youth' and here we have been sitting on it the whole time! And yet we still don't drink enough water.
The book Watercure has intrigued me, I am going to read on. I cannot figure out why I or others don't like to drink water. One of my co-workers said it was because they didn't have time to make that many bathroom stops. I don't drink water because in my head I am convinced the taste is boring. Too much soda? You think?
