    oo much sodiium and not enough water is the more obvious one. But carbs also make you retain water. So maybe cut down on those as well. And I do not worry about water retention too much, as we are here to lose fat right? not water... altho i know its annoying :O

    Thanks... Yes it is super annoying and just gets on my nerves. Also not having normal BMs is not helping me lose much either! Thank you - I will see what other carbs I can cut out!
