  • That first glass of water!

    Wow, just how refreshing is that first glass of water of the day???

    I am sat at my desk at work and a colleague of mine has just brought me a pint of ice cold tap water. It hardly lasted a minute, it disappeared down my throat so quickly! You can't beat the first glass of the day.

    Funny really, but 3 years ago I would never have thought that, and would probably craved a can of coke or something. Now its water

    It never ceases to amaze me of how easy and how effective this ***diet*** is!!




    I have since re-gained a bit of weight, but that is soon to be coming off again!

    I agree!. I always have a bottle of icy water in the fridge for when I first wake up in the morning. Nothing beats it.

      How do you get them to wait on you hand and foot and bring you water?? I always have to walk and get my own. Which coincides with going to the bathroom ironically enough.

            I'd assume Rich's "secret" is having headphones attached to his head at all times...well, unless he needs to have a "personal" moment.

              I hit the water before my alarm clock goes off, even if there's no cup - I will even drink from my hand, then go back to bed and wait for the clock. Repeat 1st thing after rising and voiding (except when I'm not on a no-weigh challenge - then I have water after). mmmm

                It's amazing how much I now ENJOY water. I always drank a reasonable amount, but now I love it. I keep a water bottle by my bed, and always try to have 2-3 glasses before breakfast. It measn I've had 1/2 my 'ration' nice and early. I usually get through 10-12 glasses a day.

                  My three boys, who are not eating Atkins, have decided they would rather have bottled water than soda. They have asked me to stop puying soda and buy more water. My dh and I tend to go through it like.... well like water.

                    My secret is that we all take it in turns, and yesterday at that time it was someone elses "go".

                    No one has got me one yet this morning, I may just have to wait...................................

                          Blah. You people are horrid. If the water cooler were 3 steps from my desk, I obviously wouldn't need a water fairy. And Richt, I don't know whether I want to kick you or be you. Unfair. Totally and completely unfair.

                            Why is it unfair? We take it in turns to get the drinks in.
