I used to be really strict with myself and made sure I always drank at least two litres of water a day. It made the kids want to drink water too. However I have fallen off the water wagon and only drink water in the morning when taking my tablets and occassionally in the eveing. The rest of the day I'll have 3 cups of decaff coffee so I am probably not drinking enough fluid at all. must try harder!
I must get this diet sorted too. I managed to lose 13lbs I think it was over four?? weeks but since the car problems I had and with not being able to stock up on decent food I started eating rubbish again and when I checked yesterday I had put 2.5lbs back on.
Well done everyone who is managing to lose.:TThe person who moves a mountain begins by carrying small stones.
Diet loss starting Sept 2019 0/80lbs:eek::o
