I've noticed my weight-loss has come to a screaching hault?

Hi SherriPie,

I don't know if drinking lots of water will help much with loose skin and/or flab AFTER you lose weight.

All I know is that my doctor told me that drinking lots of water (8 to 10+ glasses per day) DURING weight loss will help prevent them from occurring.  He also said that drinking lots of water will speed up weight loss, keep the skin more supple (help prevent dry skin), as well as prevent a host of other health problems caused by mild dehydration.

BTW, he made it clear that he was referring to PLAIN water.
Not flavored H2O, coffee, tea, soda pop, etc..

Hope this helps!

Thanks for all the great info. I am a huge water drinker, so I am glad to hear it has so many benefits. I am just hoping between the water and doing the FTS I will just shrink down to just a little itty bitty thing with nice tight skin. We shall see

SherriPie:  Congrats on your marvelous weight loss.  Along with drinking lots of water I have been slathering my body with Shea Butter which says it helps moisturize and restore elasticity to skin.  I have been using the Clinique Deep Comfort Body Butter, but I'm sure there are less expensive brands out there.  Not sure if it is true about restoring elasticity, but it can't hurt to try, and it definitely moisturizes wonderfully.

I didn't even think about that. Thanks for the heads up, I am going to hit the store and see what I can find, I hope they have the Shea butter.
