Losing Water Weight Fast!

[Daisy_Girl]

Thanks everyone. I hate to do this, but I have to, those few pounds of water really make a difference. I am not looking forward to Sunday - absolutely hate being dehydrated. Plus, I have to fly (only an hour) while dehydrated. Ugh.

As of today, all startchy carbs are cut except I am having 1/2c CoW in the AM until Friday morning. Only carbs rest of day are green beans and the little that is in my shakes. Will switch to asparagus later in the week - that has natural diuretic effects, right?

Fresh parsley is added to my lean turkey, and will mix it in with my egg whites. Will go pick up some bell peppers to mix it up!

My "normal" diet is higher in sodium, so I know cutting that out will immediately get some water off. Think I should cut it out NOW or wait a couple days? How about add'l potassium supplementation? Thoughts?

CEEBS - you add GlucorellR to even meals with only veggies? It does make me sleepy, so I have to watch it, but will start to add more. Yes, on Thermorexin, which has done well with keeping water down. BUT, been on a carb-fest for a couple days. Blech. That, coupled with my period, is causing some water weight gain.

Thanks again.

Once I bought "Water Pills" at GNC to try them out, and they have worked really fine when I want to get rid of that water. I took them like two days before, one with each meal. And as some people already mentioned, I drank lots of water (min 3.5 liters) few days before.

You could also add lemon juice to your water and eat a lemon the night before. This has always worked well for me. Lemon's are another one of nature's mild diuretics.

Use the leaf structure of the dandelion for diuretic effect; the root structure is for constipation.

Oops. No wonder...

lol... that's probably helpful to the effort too if that's any consolation ...

cut a hole in the middle of a fluffy white gym towel, put it over your head, then put a garbage bag on top of that, just tear some holes for head and arms, then a sweat top or rack top over that.


Alot of fighters do this when they are trainning for a fight.
If you ever trainned for wrestling or BOXING, you know exactly what Im talking about.

When you watch a good pro boxing match other then heavy weights, listen for what they weighed in at and what was there weight the night of the fight. I've seen boxers gain almost 20 pounds in 24 hours.

So if your desperate and this is temperary, I would sudgest trying this method.
Before you do, make sure you freez alot of ice cubes, because you cant drink the water back and sucking on the ice cubes help your body to adjust.
