Who hasn't heard the idea that drinking water can contribute to
you diminishing your weight? Much more than usual! But is this
affirmation true? The answer is yes! When you drink more water, you
boost your metabolism, suppress that wild appetite, and clean your
organism of waste. At the same time, you stop the body from retaining
water and thus lose some extra pounds. How can you make sure you drink
the right amount of water (8-10 glasses every day), maintaining yourself
hydrated and losing weight? Here are a couple of great tips that will
help you out!
Drink before eating
Water suppresses the
appetite, so it is an excellent idea to drink it before you eat. As a
result, you will feel full faster and eat less. Specialists say that
drinking water before eating can reduce the calories intake with 75
calories/meal. Thus if you do this each meal daily for one year, you
would cut the calories ingestion by 27,000. According to my math, you
would be losing 8 pounds/year only by drinking water.
Drink water instead of calorie drinks
Forget
all about sodas or juices, and drink water instead. Add a bit of lemon
if you think this is too boring for you. You know for sure that a glass
of water with a bit of lemon in it can really contribute to you losing
weight and cut your food cravings. Don't believe it? Why don't you just
start drinking water and convince yourself of the result?
Drink it cold
When
you drink cold water, you boost your metabolism by forcing your body to
work more in order to warm the water. This will also burn down calories
and help you lose weight. Not to mention that cold water tastes better
than normal temperature water.
Go to the gym
When you drink
water, you prevent the muscles from cramping and you maintain your
joints lubricated. This means that you can work out for a longer period
of time. The key is to remain hydrated and those extra pounds will
disappear quickly.
Get enough
The best trick when it comes
to drinking water is to follow a rule called "8x8". Most nutritionists
recommend it. You have to drink 8 glasses of 8 ounces with water daily.
This will help you lose weight and keep your ideal figure. Keep in mind
that you if exercise more, you will sweat more. This requires more water
intake, or the same amount of water but completed with other type of
drinks, like herbal teas.
What's the best way to know if you
receive sufficient water? A good, but somehow weird rule, is to verify
the toilet before going to the bathroom. When you are properly hydrated
your urine gets light yellow and clear in color. If case your urine is
dark, then you will know that you need to drink more water. Remember:
drink water if you want to remain healthy and lose weight!
