The Atkins' Diet does cause you to lose water and therefore 6-8 glasses of water is recommended. I can manage 6 pretty well. In the old "Calories Don't Count" book, the author also encountered people who tried to say that it was all water loss, but when you lose 80 lbs., it can't all possibly be water. The fat is excreted as glycerol according to what I read, through the urine, which is, of course, part water. I am OK so far with this diet. But I have to make my granddaughter a chocolate cheesecake for her birthday and I am dreading being at a party for her with all the sweets and other goodies.....
