I dunno… January? I actually dropped weight a lot faster than I expected, but then have been sitting at a steady weight for a weeks. I was hoping to be at 190 by October, but I guess 191-195 is a lot more realistic. [...] [...] That’s officially 16 lbs lost since July, leaving 15 more lbs to lose by.. I dunno… January?

If you're doing cardio for less than an hour- water should suffice. If you're lifting weights- then I'd keep it to water during your workout, but a sports drink afterwards.<br/><br/>That's confusing. Doc-

If you suggest sports drinks, do you have a favorite? w00t! 210 this morning. That means I’m going back down.

That's where the weight comes from. You've probably lost a bit of fat, but your body gets used to sweating- so it hangs onto water just in case you are to work out. If you drink a lot of water, your body will say "hey, I have enough", and you should be able to stay around the minimum.
