I confess... I'm a big drinker!

Yup - I drink all the time - a whopping 120+ oz. of water or decaf tea every day! I decided to keep track of what I drink, and I couldn't believe it. I knew I was getting in the 64 oz. that are required, but more than 120 oz -- that's a lot! Am I alone in this, or are there other tea tottelers/drinkers out there? Here's the weird part - you'd think that with that much liquid that I'd live in the bathroom - NOT! I hardly go at all - and I'm not retaining water - no swollen ankles, etc. I can't figure it out Have a great day everyone! Kathy Bilodeau

Good for you Kathy! I'm sure it is one of the reasons you are doing so well with your weight loss. Keep up the great work. Carolyn

Me too Kathy, I have always been a big drinker, LOL. I drink lots of water and tea and crystal light every day but I pee my brains out so I am not retaining water either. I am hooked on the decaf teas I am trying all kinds and I get at least 96oz or more a day at work and then drink more liquids when I get home right up till the time I go to bed. So your not alone.

Hey Kathy, I am right there with you. I drink at least my 64 oz by the time I get home from work. I don't really keep close track after that but I know most days I get in at least another 32 oz minimum during the course of an evening. LOL the days I am at the casino my water intake is huge!! I find that some days I am peeing alot and other days I hardly go at all. Can't figure it out. I will say that my water retention is better although I still have swollen ankles sometimes. Nothing like it was though. Can't wait to see you on Tuesday!!! Linda

This is funny, I am sitting here drinking a cup of tea reading your post! I also drink so much and don't spend as much time in the bathroom as I would think. I drink tea, and water for the most part. I even have a glass of white wine on weekends. It's easy to limit the wine since I am feel that one glass right away. Things ain't what they used to be! I did grow up in the 70's! Drink on my friend! You are really doing well! GO HUSKIES!!!! Linda-are you dreading senior night Tuesday? love Cheryl
