    Hiya Pam and welcome to the site, I have no idea about your question - sorry, but I would like to say well done on your weight loss! 12.5 is fantastic!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Congratulations!!
  138. Ajax

    Can we talk about (not for the delicate)

    I am like this when I drink a lot of water too, usually due to me drinking too much in one go or in a short amount of time. it can be really bad too! Try and space your drinking and your packs out and it might ease off. Alternatively be careful in case you have a bug!
