[Michelle70]

OK, I'm 4 days into Induction and I feel SO fat and bloated from all of the water, any suggestions?

Thanks,
Michelle

Re: Water Question

Just one suggestion.... Keep drinking it!!! It'll get better and you'll be washing away the pounds and inches! After a while it'll be like you just can't get enough water.

Best of luck to you!

Thick Rick is right on the water thing. I totally hated drinking it all the time at first - I was an avid Diet Mt. Dew drinker (4-6 per day), but now ALL I drink is water (100 ounces or more per day) and it seems everytime I look down my water bottle is empty and I am refilling to quench my thirst! And I do understand that bloated feeling, but that too shall pass! Your body will get used to the water intake and you will get on track. Just be patient.

Oh yeah, keep it up with the water. It's almost like the water flushes the fat right out of you!

Re: Water Question

Yes your body is retaining water because it has been dehydrated and now it is hanging on to the water for dear life. So keep drinking it your body will realize you are not going to do that to it anymore and then you will need abathroom close by. You should drink 64oz of water plus an addition 8oz for every 25 pounds you have to lose I drink 150oz a day this includes for exercise.
Welcome to this woe!

Chug a lug! Believe it or not, the more water you drink the less you retain!

I am struggling with the water thing too, in fact my stomach looks terrible and extended when I drink all the water, not really the look I was going for!
