NSV (possibly TMI)

I think one of the reasons I had such a hard time losing weight before was because I never drank enough water. In April, my school started a "biggest loser" weight loss competition. At that time, I weighed 174 lbs, but never weighed in here because I was so mad I had gained from my initial weight when I started MFP (168 lbs). Now I'm down to 160 lbs.

I've noticed that since drinking at least 8 glasses of water a day, sometimes more, makes me more regular. Before that, I had a BM maybe once or twice a week. Now it's like every day! I like to think of this as a good thing - everything coming in is going out.

(also, I won my biggest loser weight loss competition - won $240 for it, too!)

I think you should count it as a good thing. Um, congratulations?

Same here. It comes naturally with a healthy lifestyle!

Congrats! Keep up the good work. Can't say that dinking more water has made me regular; in fact changing diet to vegies, fruit, and lean meat, with the amount of exercise I do has taken me in the other direction (LOL).....
