For a professional athlete, I am SUPREMELY LAZY. I don’t want to cook every day so I prep my meals for the week on the weekend. I love drinking water and carry a water bottle with me everywhere I go, but I haaaaaatttteeeee having to refill my bottle when it’s empty. Relevant Facebook post from this summer:
One thing that motivates me to be slightly less lazy though? PROGRESS.
When I was a runner, I used my Garmin to track my speed and distance and the more I improved, the harder I wanted to work. In bodybuilding, making side-by-side physique comparisons always wows me.
Unfortunately, no one ever hired a water bottle butler for me, but I did just get something that ignites my competitive, progress-hungry nature by incentivizing me for something as mundane as drinking water. I call it…the Thermos Connected Hydration Bottle with Smart Lid. Just playin’, I didn’t name it, Thermos did.
It’s a Bluetooth-enabled (aka magic) water bottle that suggests the amount of water I should have per day, tracks how much water I actually drink, reminds me via phone notifications when I’m slacking, and even tells me the temperature of the water in the bottle.
All you have to do is make sure it’s charged, download the free Thermos Smart Lid app (for iPhone, iPad, and iPod from the App Store), and connect to your bottle via Bluetooth.
BEHOLD!
When I took this screenshot, I’d only had 9% of the water I needed to drink that day. Seeing that obviously makes me feel like a failure, so I guzzled some more right away.
Bonus: if you have a Fitbit, you can connect this water bottle to your Fitbit account!
Aside from all the cool tech, it’s a cute and well-made bottle. It comes in blue or gray, has a leak-proof lid, and is made of BPA-free material. The lid’s battery will hold a charge for up to 12 days, so you don’t have to worry about charging it every night or anything.
Now it’s part of the gym bag fam
I didn’t know I needed it, but I did. I love it. You need it. You’ll love it. Go buy one for you or someone you care about at Thermos.com!

Wow technology really is something! I think this a wonderful thing to have. I don’t drink as much water as I need to and this would be ideal for me. I love how it reminds you that you are slacking. This is very cool and I am excited to buy one and try it myself. Thank you for sharing
Woah! This is so fancy! I love it! Putting it on my holiday list!
I am addicted to gadgets that are attached to apps and it seems everything is a gadget nowadays….I need this in my life!
Oh wow. This is just such an awesome stuff – it will help remind us to get ourself hydrated each time.
I have officially seen it all now…an app for water bottles? I love stuff like this. I’m all about the numbers and tracking progress.
What??? This is magical! I’ve never heard of a water bottle like this!!! And I did a flashback to high school thanks to your title, lol.
Oh I would love a magic water bottle. That would be awesome to have. I think I will tell my husband I finally decided what I want for Christmas!
I have never heard of a Bluetooth-enabled water bottle, but I wouldn’t mind having one! I love that it’s BPA-free.
That’s actually really neat. I try to drink enough water every day and I think I do a decent job, but it would be nice to have something keeping track for me!
My husband would love this bottle! We have a few thermos in our home! i will have to check this out!!!!
This sounds like the smartest water bottle I’ve ever heard about. I’d love to try it someday and it would make an amazing gift!
Oooooo this would be perfect for hubby! He plays basketball at the Y on Saturday mornings. Great way to keep him hydrated
Wow, this is so awesome! I wouldn’t mind this for Christmas. 😛 I’m back to gym soon.
I’m sorry….but this is seriously a MAGICAL WATER BOTTLE FROM THE FUTURE! This is the coolest thing I’ve ever seen!!! Buying this today.
It really is. I’m totally enchanted with it!
You look amazing! I really could use one of this bottles! I work out regularly and need a better system!
I have a similar thermos and I love it! It’s so much easier to carry around!
You’re right – I didn’t know I needed this but I do! I know for a fact that I don’t drink enough water, and I’m sure this would make me accountable. So cool!
Ok now how cool is that? What a great invention they came up with there. I would love to have one of those.
I love the look of this bottle! I always have a bottle with me but never remember to drink nearly as often as I should!
This has to be the coolest water bottle. I love the Bluetooth and all that techy features – very convenient and helpful for busy people. It’s exactly what I need.
Ok, I love that it connects with the Fitbit. I am sold. 🙂
Is it dishwasher safe? So cool to connect it with your fitbit.
I like that cup! I am trying to drink more water. Having that could help.
That water bottle is so sleek and stylish! This would make a great Christmas gift!
I need this. I really want to ask for this for Christmas! I never drink enough water – I love this!!!
Cute title for your post! I love these water bottles! I need to get back in the gym!
This is so cool! I think my son would really like this.
Love this! I need one of them! I have to constantly remind myself to drink enough water throughout the day! Especially this time of year when it’s so dry!!
I’m not sure if I LOVE this idea or hate it tremendously. I don’t want a reminder to drink more water.
wow, my husband would love to get something like this for work. So cool! Thanks for sharing.
That Thermos is amazing!! I so need one of those to keep me on track. Everyday I push myself to drink more and more water. Right now I am up to 60 ounces a day.
my husband would love this bottle. i will have to check this out!!!!
I am always looking for new water bottles! This looks like a great one!
Wow, technology is surely amazing! What a neat-looking product. I will add it on my gift list – my sister-in-law is a serious runner (she has run the Boston marathon) and I think this would be perfect for her. Thank you.
I always carry water with me when I am out and about. This looks like a great bottle to have!
Wow thermos is such a great company. They have so many products out there and we own a bunch of them!
I’m adding this to my wish list right now! You would think that drinking water would be a simple thing, but it’s amazing how gadgets like this can help. I love the Fitbit feature 🙂
You have a fine looking body. It was kinda hard to focus on the thermos. I need something like that. I consume more coffee than I do water. It’s wrong I know. Working on it.
How cool is that?! I know I need to drink more water so I need to have that bottle. Going to put it on my wish list for Santa. 🙂
Love it, love the color. This would be nice to my on the go to gym.
I’ve been wanting something like this and I didn’t realize Thermos made one! This is going to the top of my Christmas wishlist!
Ok that is so cool! I need to drink more water and maybe in my water bottle yelled at me I would LOL!
I ma kind of obsessed wit heater bottles and always have one with me. This looks like a great one and I need to find it and check it out!
Oh my gosh! Never in my wildest dreams would I EVER have imagined a water bottle that could do all this. It certainly takes hydration to a whole new level!
Thermos is a great brand and this is coolest water bottle ever I came to know!!
This is a very neat app. I use my fitness pal to log my water consumption and I always carry my 74oz jug with me!
No absolute way! That’s really fun, and who knew? I bet it does come in handy. I like the Thermos brand.
Thermos is a great brand. I’m a sipper to. I teach. Always when I lecture I need water for that hour that I’m talking.
That is one of the coolest things I have ever seen. I never ever drink enough water but the reminder would be a huge incentive.
And it would keep me accountable! I love this idea!
My husband and I regularly go on a hiking. We love the waterfalls and mountain to be the places to go. And this thermos would be a great idea especially on a cold season.
I actually drink a ton of water, and have been told I drink to much.. LOL
This is really neat! Would be nice to know how much I actually do drink a day, because I don’t keep track.
I just need to drink more water and this might just help!
I really need to get better at drinking my water while at work. This looks liek a great way to stay hydrated.
Thermos smart lid, the name alone got me interested! This sounds perfect for me and my husband, I need to have this baby!
WOW! What will they come up with next, really? I will show this to my hubby – he needs to drink more water, and he has a FitBit, so I think this bottle will actually motivate him!
I’m obsessed with drinking enough water, ever since I had the girls. This would be amazing!
This is such an important part of any workout for sure. There is nothing so easy to do that is so good for your body as maintaining good hydration.
I love Thermos! We have a few of them
At our home!
wow I love this hydration bottle..and I knew thermos as a brand way back then…
Say wa??? That’s so cool!!! I’m a big water drinker and would love this!
Love this brand. I have a few Thermos in my house and my husband loves taking them to work.
I need this right now! I drink plenty of water but I’d definitely like to see the stats and actual measurements of how much I’m drinking.
My husband has problems staying hydrated! This would be an easy way to give him a gentle reminder!
Thermos brand has been around for a very long time and is always a quality product. I remember filling my Dad’s thermos full of coffee for his lunch way back in the 60s. This looks like another quality product and one that I should have.
As a gym rat I love all Chanelle’s fitness related posts. I actually lost my favorite water bottle on the last flight I took a few weeks ago and am looking for a new one and really like the design of this.
I love Thermos brand.. My mom has been using this brand for years but I’ve never seen this water bottle.
It’s a great brand. We have used Thermos since I was young.
This is really cool! I never heard of it. I’m going to have to check it out.
I would love to track the amount of water I’m drinking every day. What a great invention!
Wow, that’s the coolest water bottle ever! I would love having the reminder to get it together and drink more water.
I can’t believe this. This is so amazing! i really need this and drink more and more water
I soooo need this and am asking Santa Spouse to bring it to me!
Whoa a blue tooth enabled water bottle to track water intake! THis is awesome! I am putting this on my list!
wow, didn’t know such technological advances had come to such everyday items. awesome info!!
That’s pretty great. I really need to get back on track-I’ve taken such a far detour it seems like it’ll be insane trying to get back there.
I would love a water bottle like this. I have never seen anything like it before. It will make a great gift for the Holidays.
This looks like a fantastic Thermos. I love the great technology they are coming out with now. I will have to pick one up for myself.
I really need to drink more water! This water bottle would be perfect for me.
I absolutely love the Thermos brand. I carry a Thermos Intak daily. I HAVE to check this one out.
What a high-tech water bottle! I am just in awe at how much it can do. Tell you the temp and remind you to drink more? I need this in my life!
This made me laugh. We have made everything technical even our water bottle.
Oh my goodness, I need to get this for Hubby. He never stays hydrated and this would be so helpful… Thanks so much for letting me know about it.
Seriously? I want this water bottle. I always suck at drinking water and having something like this might remind me to drink more!
We have so many water bottles, but none from Thermos. I need to rectify that situation right now!
that is a fancy water bottle.:) pretty sure my kids would break it.:(
I need one of these for myself. I drink water all the time. In fact, that’s about all I ever drink. That’s so neat that it’s got a smart lid. I need to get a couple of these. One for myself and one for my husband.
Seriously? That is the coolest thermos ever! I really need to work on drinking more water. This would do just the trick.
Love this thermos, it also looks os stylish and I love stylish and smart things. It will be so much easier to track my water intake with one.
Wr have a lot of Thermos bottles and love them!
Awesome! I actually use a water with tap on it right now to track how much water I drink, this will be so much easier and cooler!
I’ve heard of these. Different brand though… I feel like I am always drinking so much water, but I know it’s probably nowhere near what I should be.
that water bottle is very pretty and genious! great product
You had me at the title alone! LOVED that song in the 90’s lol! And I SO need that water bottle, amazing!
Lol I’m so happy you got my reference!
I need this water bottle! I am really trying to drink more water during the day. It’s so easy to forget how much you need.
That is amazing! I struggle with drinking enough water every day so this would be awesome to have!
So pretty it makes you want to drink….
This is something I need! I never drink nearly enough
Wow how awesome is this. It looks pretty great, it would be perfect for my husband and even me for my runs!
Okay, this looks so cool! I think me AND the hubby need one for Christmas!
This is something I would totally invest in … I just started working out and for as long as I can remember I don’t drink enough water. This would be great to keep me hydrated. I’m gonna check it out and make the purchase 🙂
I just told my husband about this, and he’s sold. He wants one for Christmas now, lol!
Haha. Gift shopping accomplished!
This water bottle is everything i need in my life. I take water with me everywhere and track my consumption in my daily planner. I’m going to look for this bottle.
A long lasting thermos is important! Great tips for workouts! My hubby will love this!
A bluetooth capable water bottle?! How super awesome! This would make an amazing gift for any gym lover.
This is so cool! I have an app on my phone that I use, but I am horrible at updating it. This would solve that problem!
A bottle that keeps track of your water intake? That’s ingenious! I definitely need this. It would make a great stocking stuffer/gift as well. Thanks for sharing. I’m off to check this out.
This would be perfect for my daily routine exercise, I need this and love it.
I know I don’t drink enough water! This Thermos might help tempt me into getting the correct amount!
What a cool water bottle! I definitely want one.
I totally need this in my life. I am asking this one from Santa!
This is really cool. It’s amazing that even water bottles are becoming so high tech.
We’ve been looking for a new water bottle, the ones the Hubs and I loved are starting to leak. This might be a great stocking stuffer for him – having one of these around helps us drink more water throughout the day!
Totally perfect stocking stuffer. Hope you try and love them!
That is pretty much the coolest thing ever! I’m obsessed with ice cold water, so I love that it tells you the temperature. That is just crazy cool.
I didn’t realize water bottles had gotten so high tech!
Oh my gosh I totally need this!! Great for a nursing mom that needs to keep track of my wafer intake
I would love something like this to keep me on track with the water. I know I don’t drink enough.
This bottle would make a great addition to a “healthy lifestyle” basket for my SIL for Christmas! She’s making some big changes and could definitely use something like this to help keep her on track!
I love Thermos products! My kids have a few of their products. Looks like I will be buying this one for myself to have!
i was using Thermos when i was a lot younger – but i love all the new looks they have today!
We are always collecting water bottles but this one looks like it’s going to end up in our stocking for christmas.
If I don’t have a full water bottle I totally forget to drink my water.
I laughed when I read you were lazy…to get in the shape that your in it’s impossible to be lazy!!
Now that is cool! I am exercising a lot and this would help me keep my water consumption up.
I never drink enough fluids so an app like this would really help!
Oh my goodness! I love this Thermos 🙂
That is an awesome thermos to have. I can never remember to drink enough water and this would be perfect! Thanks for sharing.
What a great looking thermos! I think I could probably do with one of these myself as well. x
Oh my gosh, I think I need this! Who would have ever thought there would be a smart water bottle? I think this can help so many people reach their goals.
This would be cool for my kids who dont drink enough water.
This sounds like a great water bottle. It is amazing what they can do with technology now.
I actually NEED… NEED this water bottle. For health reasons, I need to keep up with my water intake. I sometimes need a nudge in that direction.
How cool is that! A water bottle with an app and works with bluetooth. I want this!
A smart water bottle! Well, it doesn’t beat having a personal butler but at least it comes close to that! Lol. I’d love to have one… or two! Thanks for sharing.
Wow! That is a super bottle, I definitely going to check it out 😀
Best. Water bottle. Ever! I’m ssssoooo bad about getting in my water. A bottle like this would keep me motivated.
That is insane. And I agree that I would definitely drink more water if I had someone/something gently nudging me along!!
Wow, that is seriously the coolest water bottle I have ever seen, and I want one! I didn’t know they had this kind of technology now. I’m impressed!
That is amazing! I know I drink way less water than I should. I would love to get one of these.
That is so totally awesome! I’m terrible with getting all my water in, and I’m equally terrible about keeping my water bottle filled.
I am so with you. Now that I have it I didn’t realize how much I needed this bottle in my life. When I look at the app to see my percentage towards my daily goal (108 oz a day) I start drinking up RIGHT away.
See here is just another argument in favor of fitbit and drinking more water. I so want one f these thermos. I am obsessed with ways to keep water near me.
I love that I can connect my FitBit to this water bottle. And I know it would increase my water intake. What a great gift idea, too.
Ok, totally need this bottle in my life. I need someone to push me to drink the water I need
What a cute bottle. I love that there is an app you can use to track your water intake.
Seriously – how convenient is that? I know so many people that will love that feature.
what!? I need this like yesterday! And it would make THE PERFECT gift for my Mother in law!!! Yep, it’s definitely happening. I’m not even joking about how excited I am about this!
GIRL I LOVE IT. You are both going to LOVE it.
consider them purchased! My husband totally thinks I’m nuts but I cannot wait.
Ok, that is all kinds of awesome. I am totally asking hubby to get me one for Christmas this year.
I need this bottle, too! There are times that I am slacking, now this will remind me to drink more.
