At last. I completed foundation last year and have managed to keep it off, untill recently and am seriously thinking of resuming LL , but have to say the thought of all that water did put me off going back on so may be this is the push I need to get back on. I found that drinking so much dominated my life , and I felt comtrolled by the need to be constantly finding water and then somewhere to get rid of it ! LOL
I think this may have come in the wake of the news item lately where a lady on a detox diet suffered an epilectic fit that left her brain dameged because she had drunk 5 lites a day and removed all salts as instructed from her diet. She won substantial damages against the nutrionist who divised the diet, so I think they are probaly covering themselves at LL with this new directive.
Its funny all this becuase I was talking with a friend of mine about re-starting the programme and she voiced for the first time her concerns about the 'water obsession' I had when on the diet last time and said it really weirded her out , my constant drinking. She fully supported me in my efforts at the time and still would she said as she had no problem with the abstinance , but felt that the 'water thing' was a real drag. OMG and I never realised she felt like that, she went on to say just what LL are now saying that everyones requirements are different she drinks very little except when its hot or she has excerted herself and she believes in listening to your body, she talks a lot of sense really.
So hooray for LL seeing sense.
