hiya, a not so newbie here from the UK :) I live in kent, and YES YES YES the water does make a difference!! I have been Lcing a year- and I pretty much stopped drinking the wate about 5 months ago - i was drinking like a fish before then and losing rapidly - I have been pretty much stagnant over the past 5 months (only losing 10lbs) and that's purely (I think) that I am not drinking enough water. SO get it in girls!!!!
