plateau buster is WATER?

could it be that simple? could the answer be right in front of our noses (or more precisely, in our faucets)? i read "what did y'all eat" posts every day and i marvel at the amounts of water/fluids other WLSers are drinking... on a good day, i can get in 40 - 48 ounces, which my doc said was fine. but some of you guys are drinking 80+ and being quite successful. so for the last 2 days i have CHOKED down more water than ever and guess what?.... i lost another pound! please tell me... IS WATER (fluids) THE MAGIC? before you flame me about carbs and protein, i will tell you that i am A-OK on that front. deb open RNY 3/5/04 -149 (that' right, it's NOT -148 anymore)

For many of us, water is indeed the answer. It carries off the byproducts of the fat we are getting rid of! Joy
