these are two posts i'm recycling here. the article i'm referencing to was super-informative, and I haven't seen the info posted in exactly this way. Water-averse members, really read this and apply it to your life. It will help you so much.

DRINK WATER, LOSE WEIGHT
On The NeverEnding subject of water, I have found some interesting articles and excerpts you may want to know about. Here's one: it just makes me really feel confident and beautiful I didn't expect that there would be something that would work so easily
In an eight-week study published in 2013, when 50 girls with excess weight drank about two cups of water half an hour before breakfast, lunch, and dinner without any additional dietary changes, they lost weight and saw reductions in body mass index and body composition scores.
It's not magic: Drinking water appears to stimulate thermogenesis, or heat production, in the body, particularly when it's chilled. The body has to expend energy to warm the fluid to body temperature, and the more energy expended by your body, the faster your metabolism (the process by which your body converts what you eat and drink into energy) runs. Specifically, drinking about two cups of 71°F water led to a 30% average increase in the metabolic rates of 14 healthy adults in a small 2003 study published in the Journal of Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism
THAT TIME OF THE MONTH
That premenstrual weight gain is miserable. But according to an article I just read, you can defeat PMS and lose all that water weight by...
Our bodies are made up of around 50 to 60 per cent water, which is vital for our survival.
But water weight refers to any extra water being held in the body.
In fact, water levels can make someone's weight fluctuate by as much as two to four pounds in a single day.
Some women find they retain more water in the week before their period and during pregnancy.
But there are ways to reduce the amount of water weight you cling onto, safely and naturally.
1. Drink more water
It may seem a bit contradictory, but one of the best ways to lose water weight is to actually drink more water.
That's because if you're constantly dehydrated, your body tends to retain more water in an attempt to prevent its water levels getting too low

But, for the most part, I had this surgery to get healthy. So, you've made me a little healthier, by pushing on the water front. Maybe no one else will ever jump on board, who knows? But know that it has made a difference for me. So, thanks.
