Wooo! I’ve been using MFP, exercising, meal prepping, and drinking a gallon of water a day for 3 months and I’ve now lost 20 lbs! 20 to go and I know I can do it!
I’ve been mostly eating Deep South and Caribbean foods and it all is okay thanks to CICO!

Way to go! Would you mind sharing your strategies for drinking a gallon of water a day?3

Thank ya! I wake up at 6am, go to sleep around 10pm, so with 16 waking hours, I try to remember to drink a glass every hour. 16 glasses of water = 1 gallon. And if I forget or get busy for an extra hour or two, I have to down an extra glass or two to make up for it the next time I drink, no skipping! It really goes a long way to helping me feel full.Way to go! Would you mind sharing your strategies for drinking a gallon of water a day?5 -

Great job! Calories in Calories out is pretty great, isn't it? I'm down 47 pounds - but have about the same to go. Congratulations.2

Congratulations to you both. It's a tough road, but you're killing it, way to go. I feel at home in this thread, as my situation is kinda similar in that when I had ballooned to 221 pounds past March, I knew I had to make some drastic changes. I've upped the exercise regimen, adhering to a healthier diet, drinking more water (and less craft beer) and I'm now over halfway towards my goal of losing 25 pounds. Keep up the good work everybody.5

That's so awesome! Congrats! I also have about the last 20 pounds to lose too. Caribbean food is so Delicious so I am inspired! I was also impressed about the gallon of water every day for the last 3 months. I have trouble getting down the required amount for my weight which is only 62 oz of water (since the minimum needed is half your weight in ounces, as I weigh 123.4 lb).2
