Many of us know that keeping our bodies well hydrated is essential for good health and for weight loss. Drinking 6 to 8 glasses of water every day is recommended and yet many people find this difficult to do.
If you are one of the many people who find it difficult to drink water, here is a program easily followed to ensure you are well hydrated every single day.
When you wake up you will often be thirsty because your body loses water while you are sleeping through breathing and perspiration. Drink a large glass of water with a slice of lemon for zing.
Drink another glass of water with breakfast or a cup of herbal tea before setting off the day.
Mid morning - snack on a piece of juicy fruit such as orange, rockmelon, watermelon, cantaloupe, honey dew. Have a glass of water and perhaps try a dash of herbal aloe juice which is wonderfully soothing to the digestive system.
Lunch - think of soup or have a glass of water before your meal, or perhaps a herbal tea.
Mid afternoon - While you are preparing your evening meal, drink a glass of water and snack on some crunchy fresh vegetables.
Evening - Sip a glass of water before your meal with a dash of your favourite fruit juice for flavour.
After dinner - before bedtime drink your final glass of water and sleep well!
Now here's the really exciting part - you may notice a reduction in inches and centimetres, as you body's water store become redundant and so decrease. You may need to 'spend a penny' more but the results will be worth it.

Water, added by easting smaller meals and several times a time (breakfast, snack, lunch, snack, dinner, snack), cutting carbs, cutting fats, cutting out pre-prepared foods, eliminating fast food, cut all sugar, cakes, breads, cookies, etc... and drink lots of water... and exercise.
Eat slower, disconnect from the fork - that is take a bite, put the fork down, chew throughly, swallow, pause, repeat.
Join a support group like Weight Watchers or something HEALTHY...
There is no such thing as a fast diet. Just hard work...
Good Luck.

Your stomach is pretty stupid. It only knows that it's hungry and needs x number of ounces to feel full.
The quickest way to lose weight to to feed your not so bright stomach liquid (non-sugar or other fattening liquids) and let it think it is full.
The good thing is you'll quickly pee out most of the liquid, losing weight as you do.
However, you still need to consider including nutrients in your diet.
