Subject: FYI

Hi,

Just a quick little food for thought after reading Kathleen's post. I remember someone going to weightwatchers and they were very diligent in their diet yet were loosing no weight. The person at WW asked how much water she was drinking. It was not enough. As soon as she started drinking a lot of water she lost lots of weight. Reason being said the woman. You need the water to flush out the fat. So if it flushes out the fat and if the benzos are stored in the fat cells then keep drinking lots of water. I think most of us do because of the incredible thirst. My MD did say that they were stored in fat cells but that did not just mean fatty parts of our tissue. He said fat cells are everywhere, brain, liver all over our body and that is why our whole body is effected in withdrawal. Just a little FYI.

Love, Sheila
