I believe it is due to all the fiber we're now eating. Fiber can cause some bloating, which can result in a little bigger belly. But, the extra inch is for a good cause! The only time it goes away on me is when I have a weekend of eating really bad, non-healthy foods (lots of breads, fried stuff, little fiber), then I wake up with a flat stomach – but can't... do nature's business, so to speak! lol TMI maybe, but there you are.

Bloating should be a "now and then" kind of thing. Not something that actually adds inches to your waist. Would love for one of the experts to chime in on this. Vikki ~ Wild4Stars@gmail.com

I am very interested in more of an explanation of why. I drink LOTS of water, all day long.... eat Lots of veggies, fruit.... I was happy to read that others are questioning this, too! Thank you for sharing any information you may have!! ''

Any thoughts on this? I have always eaten quite healthy but ramp it up with the 21 day kickstart. I do need to cut out sugar...
