Although I have said that I have not been on any diet in almost 20 years, I spent two years maybe 10 years ago following food choices put forward by Dr Gillian Mckeith 'you are what you eat' I did not class it as a diet because it is just sensible eating. I did not lose any weight in that two years but I did not take it up to lose weight. other people seem far more concerned about my weight than I am. I had health issues and wanted to feel healthy I was worried about my liver as I was daily taking very strong pain killers, I argued with my doctor because I wanted to stop medication. I followed food choices living a lot off of seeds, and raw veg, etc and kept excepting my prescription but gradually weaned myself off taking the medication, after the 2 years I felt very healthy, and then went to my doctor and told him that I had stopped taking up to 2 years before, what could he say anything since I was pain free. I got tired of the diet and slowly introduced other foods, but maybe I should revisit those food choices.
"Diet" tends to be used as a term for your choice of eating, rather than a weigh loss sort term "diet" on this forum.
Sensible eating is always the right choice though.
As to the drinking, if you know you need to drink more, try filling a jug, and if you use that in the day, you will get an idea of how much you are actually drinking.
