"2-3 cups?
that is not even 1/4 of what it takes just to get hot water out of the shower head!"
You need to catch that water! It is clean, drinkable water. Catch it in a pan, while waiting for it to get hot. Then, use that water for other purposes. Wash dishes, etc.
Same at sink. Catch the water, waiting for hot. Or, better, when ready to wash dishes, run cold water into a pan, minimum amount, and heat that on the stove. Now, use that pan to wash dishes.
Remember, you need to use AT LEAST ONE TIME, ALL water. Do not let any go down a drain unused.
