Bloated feelings on tons of water...anyone?

[Pie4me]

Hey friends...

Most days I drink at least 150 ounces of plain water
with ease. I have been doing this WOE and water
for 7 weeks now. I still go all day with a "bloated"
feeling and hate it. I thought that is would go away
by now. Anyone else experience this also. It
almost makes me want to give up drinking so much
or take a diuretic.....Any advice?

The Atkins WOE is a natural diruetic. How much salt are you injesting? Salt will make us retain water. :nod

A bloated feeling is usually an indication that your body is replenishing fat cells with excess water and preparing itself for a sudden release of this stored up fluid (termed 'whoosh' here). Keep drinking and you will be rewarded. Keep salt down also, as Cher mentioned.

By the way, this cycle will continue all through your weight loss period and is perfectly normal.
