hi friend! i had a HUGE problem with water weight a few months ago which caused me to get really dissapointed in myself and cause me to not want to stick with my regimine. I would make sure that not only is your diet ok, but from a medical stand point you should also make sure you take other considerations, my water weight was due to a fluctuation of imbalanced hormones. i made sure my birthcontrol was taken at the same time EXACTLY SAME TIME. I also found some herbal supplements that could help me. so i studied and one thing that could help could be your liver, which is your main body's filter and needs to be in check. having a healthy liver can help relieve tons of problems for you including water weight. i started taking milk thistle and it has helped me so much. milk thistle is a natural (mild) detox. you can get it at wal mart for like 7 bucks and you take it with your meal. after about a week of taking it my water weight was off and i noticed differences in it from day one.
i had gained about 10-12 lbs easily just from water weight. not making sure your body's hormones are in check can cause you to give your self adema. thats what info i can give you good luck!
