Discouragement vs Encouragement

It's been a rough couple of weeks with this program for me.

The first part of the week last week, I was dealing with little weight loss. By Friday, I had "maintained" weight for the week!!! What was I doing wrong I wondered...
They simply told me to increase my intake of water.... OK.. so I did...

By Monday, I had GAINED 2 lbs!!!! What???
The Nutritionist explained that while I needed to increase my intake of water, I also needed to make sure that I am measuring it each day. 80 oz per day, minimum required, but also make sure I'm drinking the "same amount" each day.

So, I started doing that... By Wednesday, guess what?? I lost 2.5 lbs... Interesting how the body works, isn't it?

It can also be discouraging when you don't see the weight loss, and you feel bloated, and you're sticking to the diet.. no sugar, no creamer for my coffee, no fattening, greasy foods.. what in the world??

It can also be encouraging to know some simple solutions that will fix the bloating and help keep your body flushing the impurities/toxins out.

The things I never knew about WATER and keeping a balance..

bottom line.. drink your water, but make sure to drink the same amount each day... or your body will retain it...

Have a great day everyone!!
