Does drinking more water help weight loss?

[Caz]

I've stopped worrying about loose skin now to be honest. I figure well if it's going to happen it's gong to happen. I'm 22 so have age on my side but otherwise there's not a lot I can do about it! I'm trying to do a decent amount of toning exercise and moisturise but there's no point stressing about it really. I figure better excess skin than excess fat! Sit ups... blurgh I hate sit ups, and crunches. My ab roller just arrived, it looks like a decent one for £25 from amazon. So I'm going to try and make myself do at least 50 a day. That's actually only a couple of minutes so it's highly doable!

Am feeling a little rough, but not too bad. To be honest it doesn't take much for me to not want to go to work! Finding a new job as soon as possible I think!! I think I've got the start of a cold though, bit croaky etc. What's your plan for the day? How do you like Cambridge? I came for the day recently for an interview and had a wander around while I saw there, really liked it. Is very pretty.

Hi - sorry, been out for coffee and at mum's all afternoon!
I don't live in Cambridge sweetie, that's just the diet! I am up in Liverpool. I have worked with clients there before now though and I agree it is very pretty.
Thought about going for a walk today but it is really windy and rainy so put it off until tomorrow. Going to settle down with X Factor later, after I have done a bit more housework! I am OBSESSED with housework at the mo.
You definitely have time on your side with the skin thing - I am 36, so I don't! Looks like sit ups are on the way!
Tomorrow is hanging basket day! Garden centre and then soil under the fingernails all afternoon. Great way to distract yourself.

haha I feel a bit silly there!! For some reason I thought it said Location: Cambridge! Silly me! I don't think I've actually ever been to Liverpool yet, though my friend is from between Southport, Manchester and Liverpool and is always trying to make us all go there for a visit! Obsessed with housework?! Well you can come do some here if you want!! Have you had a nice day?

 

[EllieMellie]

Not bad at all!! I have to say, I am SICK of black coffee and water though. I just want a cup of tea with milk in...but I haven't caved yet.
Between Southport, Manchester and Liverpool?? Ormskirk?
Are you feeling better?
My mate who I went for coffee with has just set up a business bringing stuff over from Kenya - apparently I have a fan over there!! He has seen my picture and thinks I look nice! Not sure there's a future in that relationship though, but I appreciate the comment!
Hmm soup or porridge for tea? x

 

[Caz]

I'm having the same debate myself! Might have soup and then porridge later, it's either that or two porridges tomorrow! Hehe well it's always nice to receive such a compliment! It's a shame I only get such compliments from men I don't like! One day... one day! Umm I can't think of what the place is called, maybe it begins with R, but I'm not sure!!

 

[EllieMellie]

Tell me about it! The ones you are not interested in are always the ones who chase!
So, do I have my bath before or after X factor? Am thinking would like to do it when it is dark, cos have bought gorgeous new candle (another obsession). But wondering if I will be bothered after an hour of watching telly. God, my life is sooo hard! x

 

[Caz]

What time is x factor? Do you mean Britain's Got Talent? Candles are good! My sister does Partylite, I love their candles, though slightly expensive. Dark bathroom with candles makes for a really nice bath actually!

 

[EllieMellie]

I mean BGT. That's the lack of sugar in my bloodstream...!
Yep, I will wait til it goes dark for my bath, and then I think it's a fake tan evening. x
