While Mike's advice is always good - and certainly isn't wrong in this case - I still thought it might be worth a link to another sticky here. There are so many 'stickies' these days that some of the messages get a bit lost, and I noticed that a couple of folks were struggling, water-wise.
This sticky http://www.minimins.com/cambridge-di...ease-read.html includes the latest official Cambrige Diet advice on water intake.
Hope this helps

Striving for excellence, not perfection!
I am responsible for my efforts (behaviours: food intake & exercise),
not for my results (outcomes: the timing of the numbers on the scales)
Thanks for the tip - I do actually drink quite a lot of green and peppermint tea but was not sure it all counted. I can easily manage one litre of plain water a day so will make the rest up with teas and stop trying to force the plain water down...Originally Posted by debz32

thx - this helps a lot and probably good to post with all the new starters and restarters.While Mike's advice is always good - and certainly isn't wrong in this case - I still thought it might be worth a link to another sticky here.

This thread had helped me so much. I'm gonna get glugging.
Icemoose, I know it has been an age since you posted this thread but how very informative, I knew there was a link between water intake and waistloss (weightloss) but wasn't quite sure what or why...all I knew is that if I drink more water than usual it always shows on the scales....and after not drinking enough water last weekend and suffering for it for two days after..I now realise why it is so integral to well being and weight loss whilst SSing inparticular. Well done you, if only everyone here read your post..it would dramatically improve the way they feel whilst SSing and have a positive effect on their weight loss. Thanks again...I am glugging my way to victory.
Fab thread
