Minimum. I carry a gallon jug with me. I start at about 6 AM and usually by 1:30 or so I'm finished with that.

I thought I drank a lot of water. I actually love drinking water, but I need to cut coffee down to one or two cups a day.

Great Job El Josey!!! How long have you been at it?


306/280/195
I've lost 26lbs in 32 days very happy with my progress!

El Josey, Watson, yalls numbers are awesome! thats good stuff

225/188.5/180 I'm creeping closer to my new goal, will really have to work hard to keep it going.Have a good weekend, no cheat for me

Also, to those of you who know much more than I do on the topic:

Does drinking a couple of glasses of wine mess with your weight in the same way that drinking beer does?

What are the differences in the affect it has?

I drink more in the evening sometimes too. I drank a full two gallons yesterday.

Yesterday someone brought in two dozen chocolate covered donuts with sprinkles. I was able to resist the donuts but fell victim to the carrot cake next to them.

I had to go back to 6" subs at Subway I think the $5 foot long was over doing it.

I think the wine issue would cause problems if you are in low carb induction.

If you are in ketosis and eat too many carbs, you can gain from 5 to 10 pounds of water.

I've gone up 10 pounds on only 1200 calories a day when moving back to carbs, so the water weight difference between your carb engine and your fat burning engine can be significant.

I tell people at my office all the time they need to add 5 to 10 pounds to their goal if they are doing low carb because they second the switch back to the carb engine, they will gain 5-10 pounds.

One lady didn't believe me until last week when she gained 5 of her 10 pound loss back.

I've gone up 10 three times since last June when having too many carbs. Some was real fat from cheats but plenty was water.

Last Christmas I gained about 19. And when I went back into induction, I dropped 10 pounds in 2 days, water.

In summary, if doing low carb wine is not good because nobody drinks only 3 ounces of wine. You would be better off drinking a Miller Lite.

If you aren't carb restricted, then wine in moderation is fine.

Ha! Grasshopper, you are still young. Keep moving that number down and your legs should feel better.

This is why I moved my goal weight from 250 down to 230. I can easily deal with 6'3. 250, but I want the cushion of the 230-250 range.
