The more water you drink, the less you will retain. Keep sodium low, but not too low and you should be fine. Why would you worry about water weight anyways? Water in your cells is GOOD. It makes...

I am sorry. I got defensive. This hasn't been easy. (And you are right about my carbs.) =)

I finally understand that there were different phases that I was supposed to be sticking with. This helped a lot. Thank you.

You are... a F*king genious! Im at 19% now, but I see what you mean by realistic goals. Im am definately going to keep training. This is all so new and exciting. Thank you for your input.
