  • Water?

    How much water is to much? I drank a little over a gallon today. I weigh 450lbs, trying to loose 200.

    Thanks!

    Re: Water?

    The general rule of thumb is often said to be
    64 fluid ounces plus 8 more fluid ounces for every 25 pounds you need to use
    As you have 200 pounds to lose which is 8 lots of 25 pounds, for you that would make 64 + (8 x 8 ) = 132 fluid ounces which is about a gallon plus 4 ounces!!

    Make sure you are not swigging down too much at a time though!
    Drinking something like a gallon all at once would be very dangerous, so spread it through the day.
    Wondering how to get 'most' of your net carbs from your induction veggies?
    Take a look at the thread from the latest Veggie Challenge to see how others manage it!
