Lawrence was speaking with a friend about his efforts to lose weight safely and permanently. The friend said that she had recently been on a low-carbohydrate, high-protein diet and lost 10 pounds, although she was afraid that most of the weight loss was water weight.

Carbohydrate intake promotes glycogen storage; for every gram of glycogen stored, your body stores 3 grams of water; when carbohydrate intake drops, so does the water weight usually associated with glycogen storage. & Without adequate dietary carbohydrate, the liver is forced to make glucose from amino acids taken from the body's tissue proteins; protein tissue contains a lot of water and dismantling that protein results in water loss in the urine.
