Water Retention | Testimonials
Carolyn Burris from Laguna Beach, California is a real person, with real before and after pictures. Here is the story of how she lost almost 20 pounds of water retention in just two months.
“I began the Waterfall Diet program in earnest beginning of August, 2009. It is towards the end of September now and I have literally peed out almost 20 pounds worth of water retention. I lost 10 pounds in the first 3 weeks. I hope to drop another 5-10 pounds. I am fairly sure all my excess weight was water retention as I have always been a decent eater. Now I am a healthy eater. I eat plenty of foods and don’t get hungry.”
“I also joined a gym and a trainer helps with exercise. It has been 15 years since I have been in the gym. I love it but I know it is the Waterfall Diet that is making the difference.”
“When a gym trainer weighed me in before I started the Waterfall Diet, I was just short of 173 pounds. Today I weighed myself at 154. I have lost almost 4 inches of water retention from my belly. I couldn’t be happier. So many pieces of information in your book have fit for me. I feel for so many who try to lose weight and struggle and work out so darn hard. This way was easy and only took 2 months. Thank you so much Linda.”
16 lbs of Water Retention
Testimonial from Alison in Ozark, Missouri
“Happy to report have now lost 16 lbs!…in 25 days! I only started the diet on 30th August. I’m again referencing your original book about the Waterfall diet with recipes and such, and this time around, have become more adventurous with food preparation. Have downloaded your low carb and additional recipe suggestions.”
23 lbs of Water Retention
Testimonial from Lucy in New Jersey
“Well, I bought the book on the Waterfall Diet and so far I have lost 23 pounds because I started out at 188 and now I am 165. I am still losing slowly but before it was impossible for me to lose weight.”
“I am very happy that I found this diet. It is not really starving yourself but eating foods that are right for you. Yesterday I was at the doctor’s office for a blood test which I have to take every three months. I found out that my blood pressure was 112/72, the nurse told me that reading is excellent, my normal reading use to be 120/80. I am so happy now I know the causes of water retention for me and why I was unable to lose weight.”

“Thanks to your book I now understand what my problem is – water retention! After 60 tests I still couldnt get to the bottom of why my legs felt separate from the rest of my body (my upper half is quite sinewy!).”
“Dear Linda I have recently downloaded your 2 books, the Waterfall Diet and Treat Yourself with Nutritional Therapy. I’m very excited to have found the first one as I have had water retention most of my life and there hasn’t been one doctor who has pinpointed it like you did. I started the diet this past Monday and already feel better. Thank you very much for this positive information.”
“I’ve signed up for your newsletter. Looking 4ward to more info to learn from. Linda’s writing is so inspirational and practical!”
“Loved the book!”
“Your Nutritional Health Bible is one of my bibles”.
“I have had this weight problem for the last 3 years. The facts mentioned in your book about water retention exactly fits my problems. Hence I was confident that my weight issues was due to water retention. In one year I had put on 15 kgs. I tried all sorts of exercise diet programmes but nothing changed my weight. In the first one week after I started the waterfall diet I lost about 5 kgs. ”
“I love you Linda. My feet were swollen for 10 years before I read your book. Thank you so much. God bless you.”
“I never thought foods can make a difference to powerful and stubborn hormones, but this book has changed my perception on food nutrition for ever. Your diet does help to lose water retention weight and I would recommend your book like no other!!!! I put on water retention after my miscarriage and until now could not lose it. MILLION THANK YOUs Linda and wishing you all the best. Hope xxx”
“Linda, I just want to thank you for helping me to lose weight. I have religiously been working out since last October with barely any results in weight loss. I began at 170lbs. After drinking Acai Berry juice, I loss 7 but once again I plateaud. Leaving the 160s had been the hardest thing I ever did. When my doctor told me the amount of water I could be retaining could be caused by HRT, I googled how I could get rid of it. The Waterfall Diet came up. I ordered the book I think two weeks later and the pounds have shed like crazy. I feel healthier and don’t have to take my blood pressure pills everyday. My 30th High School Reunion is this weekend and I’m looking fabulous at 141 pounds. Thanks so much! PS I have sent a letter to Oprah requesting that she put you on her show.”

Dawn, Lean Cuisines are calorie- and fat-reduced foods for losing fat from your body. They will not help you lose water retention. For that you need the waterfall diet.

Thanks for your book. It gave me a lot of info and is helping me help my daughter after 3 years of water retention. We were able to figure it out after 2 weeks on the waterfall diet. It gave us the info we needed. I am just thankful we figured it out so quickly. I learned so much from the book. She would loose and gain so rapidly!

Hi, I was on 25 mg of hydrochlorot for slightly elevated BP. I lost 23lbs by doing low carb so my dr said I could try going off the meds. When I did, I gained 7 pounds back in a week. So, I started them up again but really don’t want to be on them at all. Will I need to be off the meds in order to try this diet? Thanks much.

I have written extensively about the addictive effects of water pills like this. They may be helpful as a prescription medicine for high blood pressure but will make you retain water and swell up quickly as soon as you stop taking them. In the long term they will always make water retention much worse. It is not advisable at all to go on taking diuretics. They could also make it more difficult for the waterfall diet to give you good results. Good luck and let us know how you get on.

I just want to know of a way to avoid water retention as I am a very healthy eatier, in fact a vegetarian and eat well all of the time other than the odd sweet treat.

Healthy eating is the first step in the right direction. You also need to find out if any foods you eat are causing your water retention. That is what the Waterfall Diet book can help you with, among other things.

My fingers get so swollen, I exercise 3 times a week plus. My socks leave rings around my legs for hours. Water is my drink of choice but I don’t know if i’m drinking enough. I eat lean cusienes for lunch. I weigh 160 and it is a constant strugle, starting to have night sweats so I don’t understand how I can sweat so much and still have water retention.
