I too am drowning in water, but I will now PATIENTLY wait for my swoooooch cuz of you!! Way to go!! Wish you lots of luck!! Thanks for your post.
I'm toasting a glass to you right now!! lol

Hello Jonnee,
I peeked at your profile. We have similar stats and your birthday is 2 days before mine. Our goal weights are the same too. Let me know how you do on induction (your first two weeks.)

Good luck. (I lost 7 lbs in first week of induction, and 2 the next week.)

I'm now at 150.5 (started at 162) at New Year's (I've fallen off a few times, but restarrted Induction 3 days ago and feel my resolve growing. The water was very hard for me at first, still is, the only way I can manage it is to carry a liter of water around. That way I'm reminded to drink. Best of luck.

Hey Ruby----thank you soooo much for replying. This is so much fun having people to cheer on and be cheered by!!! We will now be birthday buddies(but guess what, mine is the big 50 this year!) Sigh... anyway, I will be your cheerleader buddy and I hope I can tell u soon that I am doing as well. You are really off and running!! Hope to hear from you soon.

How much water do you drink a day? 64 ounces? Or more? Curious here.

Isn't it amazing what a little more water can do?
