Cannot quench my thirst?!

Im trying and failing to not panic about the state of my insides whilst on this diet Grin, but for the last 3 days Ive been permanently thirstly.

Today Ive drunk almost 4 litres of fizzy water mixed with NAS vimto squash, and still guzzling. I NEVER drink this much, Im usually a 2l pepsi girl, and nothing else. Water is a new thing for me.

Is this normal Confused

Are you on the bootcamp? Not sure if NAS drinks are allowed? I do the Harcombe Diet and they wouldn't be on that.

Anyway.... if you're that thirsty it might be that you have a salt (usually potassium & sodium) imbalance. Some people suggest a supplement or a salty bouillon drink.

Ask on the bootcamp questions thread :)

I have very thirsty days, usually lose some weight around that time. I would ditch the squash though.
