Who invented skinny water

Since then drinks have evolved from Diet Coke in the 80s to our current obsession with water. Now the Noughties has responded with Bio Skinny Water which neatly combines our desire for hydration with another — the goal of a svelte figure.

But is this the ultimate diet secret bottled? There is also chromium which is supposed to ensure fat can be metabolised and used as a fuel by the body.

The water is also said to help reduce sugar cravings. From Christmas over-indulgence to the pending Easter egg chocolate extravaganza, Skinny Water promises slimming will be plain sailing. I found the flavour too sweet and artificial for my liking. I can drink a lot more ordinary bottled water. Of course, this may be the Skinny Water working as it is incredibly filling, sating any hunger pangs for a few hours at a time.

I put it to the ultimate test by topping up on the diet drink one evening when I knew I would miss dinner. To be fair it kept me fuelled up until after 8pm with no rumbling tummy. The makers of Skinny Water have done their homework, however, and customer feedback points to people with a sweet tooth lapping up the drink, or even making ice lollies with it for a sin-free treat.

Except in my purse, that is — it costs money compared to tap water which is free, at least for now. Knowing the desire among most, if not all, of us to find the slimming solution which avoids abstinence, Skinny Water just might be good enough to quench that particular thirst.

Kerry McKittrick 29 believes in exercise and a balanced diet, but gives the thumbs up to Skinny Water for helping shed a few extra pounds. Well, most women probably would.

The science behind it is apparently simple. The recommended amount a day is between two and four ml bottles, and it comes in either grapefruit or pomegranate flavours. I think the best way to lose weight is simply to eat a balanced diet and get regular exercise, but then again, like many people, I sometimes find this just that little bit hard to do. So, does it work? But I did notice that Skinny Water was an excellent way to fend off the sugar crash that can send me heading straight for the biscuit tin.

As part of a calorie controlled diet and extra exercise, Skinny Water was a big help. It steered me away from those diet-busting snacks. Normally I battle to drink the recommended two litres of water a day but I found that if it was Skinny Water on my desk, I tended to drink more of it than I would ordinary water, which has to be a plus.

What I found most surprising, though, was the effect it had on my skin, which is prone to break-outs if I consume too much junk food or processed products.
