Water Consumption! Please Read!!!

[silencemylips]

I'd be careful going too overboard with the water 6litres is a lot! I know sometimes when I've forgotten to drink enough and make myself sick drinking loads too fast. obviously drinking too much too fast isn't good!

It's really hard for me to drink all my water, I dislike drinking water and don't want to keep going to the toilet I need to wee a lot anyway and since there's no medical problem that it can be traced to the doctor's best guess is that my weight puts pressure on my bladder! So I suppose more toilet visits now are worth it in exchange for less in the long run, but it's still REALLY REALLY HARD :cry:

Hi keep drinking as water is the transport for your fat out of the body!!!

I think I'm going to have to get some of the water flavouring as drinking all this water is making me feel sick. When I went to see my CDC she didnt say what flavours I can get or how much they are? Any answers? x

I kno there sunshine orange which I personally liked

 

[Skinny Sia]

Not on Cambridge but I loved both the sunshine orange and the berry one. Really helped.

i drink about 4 litres of water a day anyway so shouldnt be an issue for me x

! think you can start having flavorings in week 3, luckily for me i prefer plain water, I'm only just managing the 4 pints a day though on top of what I had to my milkshakes, I feel so full i couldn't drink anymore, maybe as I do more exercise

Have to keep reminding myself to drink water, its ok at work have a bottle on my desk, but the problem is the weekend always forget.

 

[CWPKatie]

I measure my water at the start of the day, then I make sure I drink the lot in the day x

I was the same as you only drinking with my meals and when I'm thirsty lol. I've been trying to drink 2l a day though to help weight loss faster. Get a big bottle to sip through the day? Maybe if its there you'll drink it? That works for me x

 

[Rubydebi]

At my work we have one of them water coolers so it makes me drink more because I only like really cold water!! But when I am at home I will do the same, I fill up 2 1L bottles and put them in the fridge so I know how much I need to drink in the day!!

 

[Sugarpuff7]

I like only very cold water too. Find tht if its cold a dressy the amount I shud have then I tend to drink more x

 

[TheGirl]

thanks for that i was worried that i should be drinking more but thats good news

 

[jadelang88]

im struggling with the water intake, im not keen on water in all honesty but today is my first day and i feel quite fresh considering, i usually drink fizzy drinks x

I'm new to this diet, currently on day 3 of SS. Trying to get as much weight off as possible before my wedding and honeymoon in 21 days! Finding it pretty easy so far. The way I manage the water is to fill up a 1.5l bottle in the morning and make myself drink it all by 4pm before I leave work. Then I fill up a 1l bottle when I get home and ensure it's all gone by 9pm! Just my way of ensuring I'm getting the water down as not a big 'drinker' before SS. Can't wait for weigh-in next Thursday Finding it hard to get the shakes dissolved in the water though without lumps...do I need a mini blender?

 

[sweetaddict]

The shaky bottle things are quite good for getting rid of lumps, I find that if you add half the water give it a real good shake then add the other half shake again that works really well, especially if you're on the go and can't get to a blender
However when I'm at home I've got a smoothie to go machine and put it in thee with a load of ice and blend it up, leaves no lumps and makes a really thick shake ?

I don't think your supposed to have flavouring til 2 weeks in, but not 100% just keep tryin to power through. its probably ur body adjustiing thats making you feel unwell but that will pass soon! xx

 

[swangirl]

I am not nromally a big drinker, i am lucky if i have a pint of water a day :/
since starting today i have already drank 500ml and been to the toilet 4 times already! but i suppose all this running to the toilet is good exercise haha
