Interesting numbers. Weight Watchers is a well researched program. They suggest 8 glasses of water a day. I would think you’d be pretty water-logged at a gallon. They also suggest 5 servings of fruits and vegetables per day and 3 oz of meat per meal OR 4 oz of chicken or 6 oz of fish or legumes per meal. Theres room for cereal or a slice of bread in there. You still lose weight quickly especially when you add walking and exercise. That seems like a more normal way of eating and the ability to incorporate the Mediterranean diet in there. Anyone else on Weight Watchers? My information is a little dated (10 years).

I'm Not a dietician nor a Medical Professional ... so I'll Ask: Is the suggestion of 8 glasses of water a day across the board for EVERYONE? Should a 6'4" person drink the same amount of water as a 5'2" individual? I should think the persons daily activity regimen would be a factor as well ... the 6'4" person who is out doing a job or sport keeping busy all day would need more where as the 5'2" person who is sitting in their car, then sitting at a desk, also sitting for breakfast, lunch, dinner, then sitting down to watch News & evening programing would need less that our other example-individual!
Just Wondering ........

I was in WW over 30 years ago. So long as I followed the program, I lost weight. I hate journaling. As soon as I stopped, I gained the weight back plus a few pounds.
