Agree with the water. Some will tell you that it isn't necessary, two days is about all the body can really hold, but that isn't the point. The idea of starting that early is so the body can acclimate to the increased fluid level and adjust its consumption time table.

No doctor, just seems how it works for me. Otherwise, especially for us old folks, the body will start getting rid of the fluids almost as quick as you can put them in your body.
