Your craving for sweets and your lack of interest in water are probably related. A lack of water can make you think you want sweets, when you really need water. Don't know where I learned this (probably Good Food for a Bad Gut, or Food and Mood), but I find it's true for me.
Try adding something sweet to your water (it's better than no water at all) to get started. Lemon or orange is really good. Try adding lemon and a little sugar (like weak lemonade). Try it REALLY COLD sometimes.
I don't get my 8 glasses either, but I drink more water than I used to. Good luck! dawny
