So I have a few friends, who, when they talk about being bloated, refer to it as "water weight". Have you ever heard of this term being used? In Chinese medicine, gas, bloating, and D are often refered to as "Dampness." Right now I am bloated and gassy and it actually FEELS damp inside me... like this greasy damp weird feeling... in any case, I was wondering what water weight is. My friends claim it goes away while fasting, and that it is not fat... I don't really get it- I wonder if there is a real medicial explination of what bloating/water weight really is. Any ideas?
