Water Challenge

[santa7]

Anyone ever have a water challenge?  My daughter went through one for a month and lost 10 pounds.  She drank nothing but water for a month - no sodas, juice, milk, just water.

I have never done a water challenge but has just try drinking water with cucumber in it.  It's supposed to be a cleanse type drink.  I'll give it a week or so and see what happens.

Hello!

Yes, I actually am on my own water challenge. However, it doesn't consist of losing weight whether just sustaining a happier healthier lifestyle. Feel free in joining me in my challenge.

Don't that was a good idea, even though loosing that much weight in a month is good, but our bodies are made with water, and not putting at some calories in is not all good, depriving your body of certain nutrients is essential for daily living. She may experience some pains when she does start back putting food in her body. I wouldn't advise anyone to do that, everyone's body don't react the same.

I have a question, did you change the way you eat during this challenge or was it just the drinking you changed? Thanks in advance for the info.

I have been trying to drink more water.  I have cut out the soda pop.  Now to get weaned off the sweet tea.

I've gone about two weeks and then water starts tasting bland. I might try the fruit in the water and see how that goes. It's definitely worth a try.

Congrats to your daughter for her dedication and payoff.

She ate food too right?  Anyone will loose weight (and likely get sick or die) if they have nothing but water for a month.  Drinking 1/2 your body weight in oz of water daily is the way to go, I have found.  For those that drink juice, alcohol, soda, coffee's with lots of sugary things added to it and even teas that drop all that stuff and go to just water... well yeah they'll loose weight.  Hope she's also getting nutrients through a healthy food source.

I've heard of this, but with my health issues, I doubt I should try it. I do know that water is a natural appetite suppressant.

It might work as a weight loss for people who have high caloric drinks to give up and simply drink water instead. I drink very few things other than water, so eliminating the beer isn't going to result in a 10 pound weight loss.

I did  three day water fast some years ago.  I felt really good at the third day. I wasn't doing it to lose weight.  I didn't eat anything just drank water.

Water is really good for you, as long as she still get other nutritional food.

I've never heard of the water challenge, i'd be curious to try it, but I can't give up coffee- black coffee - in the morning.... I'm an addict & I love it.  Part of my morning routine.

I've heard that drinking nothing but water does wonders one's skin.  Did your daughter happen to mention that her skin, complexion, looked any different after drinking only water?
