Hello everyone,

Can anyone tell me how important drinking lots of Water is please,

Has anyone done it both ways with and without drinking 8 pints a day and if so has it made any difference to the weight loss,

Many thanks

Cherie

I can guide you to the internet where you can search Water + diet and find loads of articles on the importance of water. I just read that most Americans are dehydrated! But to answer your question, I have long known that you can lose more weight when you drink sufficient amounts of water as needed for health. The back of my water bottle reads "hydrates and nourishes your active body..which aid in energy metabolism as part of a daily diet." Digestion is aided by water. Water plumps the skin to make it dewey in appearance, it is also good for the hair aiding in oil distribution for a shinier healthier look.

I agree Lap dancer, I've always had clear skin but about 3 months ago I had this crazy allergic reaction on my face. YUCK! Well, I tried prescription meds and benadryl. finally my face cleared up but it just wasn't like what it used to be.

Ever since I started drinking my 64oz a day, I noticed that my skin is just radiant. My face is dewey and I love it. My hair has grown a bit too. I wonder if its all the Protein I try to get in daily.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
