Skinny water? Sounds like a complete con to me - I mean water from my tap is free of both calories and cost.

Is this flavoured water?

Typical modern mis-leading product name designed to entice the stupid people who believe they need to watch every last calorie that enters their body for fear they might be deemed as disgustingly unattractive and be rejected by all the other superficial, trend led sheep.
BIG FAT (!) CON.

Ironically, it has more calories than tap water. Total con, and it tastes vile.

It boasts that it takes hunger away and improves the bodys ability to burn fat. I did try a bottle and it did taste ok like, I just wasnt sure how good it would be for you. I first saw it in the gym but you can get it in Tescos.

does anyone who is slagging this product off know what it is.

It could be water with things that speed up your metabolism such as green tea in it, L-Carnitine or CLAs and some other supplements etc

So maybe it may have some benefit as a weight loss aid in a healthy eating program

I've tried it, and it tasted alright. But I only bought 1 bottle. That sort of explains it all.

This is ludicrous. Water has no calories in it anyway. Skinny water? Do they think we're a few sandwiches short of a picnic? (pardon the pun!)

I think the blurb on the pack says it supresses hunger. I suppose it's a psychological thing as much as any other factor. That one is a peach flavour (I think) There is also a detox one as well as one that is supposed to give you energy or something like that

I have seen Weightwatchers iceberg lettuce in my local supermarket - they must think people are really stupid.

I prefer dehydrated skinny water. It's so much more convenient for carrying around.
