RID THE FAT - DRINK H2O (WATER)

Convert your solid fat to liquid fat for metabolization with H2O!
In order for solid body fat to convert from solid state to liquid state, the body has to break it down from solid state.
It can be done through restricting calories, exercise, or drinking water. (please note that drinking water doesn't substitute for exercising or eating properly, it's merely a tool to help).
In order for the solid body fat to convert to liquid body fat it needs 2-hydrogen atoms. You can get that in different ways, but the easiest way to get excess is through the consumption of water...made up of 2 Hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom - H2O.
This tip is just that...a tip. It's not a green light to toss all your nutritional and physical activities out the window, but to enhance your journey.
Consuming water comes with responsibility as well. Too much water can cause you to diminish your electrolyte stores in the body. There have been stories of people "drowning" themselves from drinking too much water.
HAPPY TRANSFORMATION!

I really don't want to live in a world where drinking water, one of the most basic animal functions, is considered a responsibility.
Paying my bills requires responsibility. Walking my dogs requires responsibility. Completing work assignments promptly requires responsibility.
Recognizing thirst, finding a container, turning on the tap, and swallowing . . . not so much.0 -

That's not how "it" (fat metabolism) works.0 -

Now, now, we can't be urinating just anywhere.

And I actually like exercising more than not these days, but I WISH drinking water would get rid of fat. I've always been someone who naturally drank tons (well, not really tons, as that would be irresponsible!) of water, so I could have avoided ever getting fat if that were so.
Sigh, sadly no.0 -

You do realize that if you live in CA, doing this will be more costly.

If drinking water really burnt fat, I'd be done. I love water, I crave it. My co-workers are always making fun of me because I take my water bottle everywhere.
Unfortunately, it's the calories that count . . . not the water.0 -

This is why I drink Brawndo. It's got electrolytes.

Water, calorie restricting, and exercise, all except water, break down fat, so your pro tip is - drink water to lose fat.
Right! Thank you!0 -
You’ve probably heard it more than once: drink more water to help you lose more weight. But does water really help weight loss? The short answer is yes. Drinking water helps boost your metabolism, cleanse your body of waste and acts as an appetite suppressant. Also, drinking more water helps your body stop retaining water, leading you to drop those extra pounds of water weight. So what can you do to make sure you’re drinking the recommended eight-to-10 8-ounce glasses per day to keep yourself hydrated and encourage weight loss?0

I'd be thin as a rail if this one weird trick worked. I drink an unholy amount of the stuff. To the point that my doctor recommended that I drink a sports drink each day because my blood sodium was low. Stupid meds and dry mouth.

Are you *sure* about that?0 -
Water weight isn't the same as fat weight though. This isn't to deter people from drinking water, but there really isn't any solid evidence that we NEED 8-10 8 ounce glasses of water per day. It doesn't hurt, but it's not a requirement when it comes to weight loss.jessietrumble wrote: »You’ve probably heard it more than once: drink more water to help you lose more weight.

Here in Calfornia we have an amazing water collection and delivery system that provides the average residential user with drinking water so inexpensive that it's practically free. Of course, rates vary by usage tier but at fairly typical 1.89/ Ccf ( 748 gallons) or about $0.002 per gallon cost isn't really a consideration for me in how much water I drink
I'm just hoping that the current drought is just another cyclical fluctuation and not an indication of a more permanent change to the climate. If it's the latter, we're going to be in for some major changes to how we live - well beyond those in the EO -including paying A LOT more for water in the future.0 -
WOW...I expected a lot of hater responses...look at the science and you will see it's true. But notice that I said in my thread other factors apply!
I love how people are taking one sentence and basing their whole response on that! In typical fashion along with other groups who do that same thing!

More than likely recommended because that's been the standard (with no scientific evidence to back it) for so long even before weight loss sites and companies evolved into businesses in the latter part of the 80's.but there really isn't any solid evidence that we NEED 8-10 8 ounce glasses of water per day. It doesn't hurt, but it's not a requirement when it comes to weight loss.
Yet both MFP and Weight Watchers specifically recommend 8 glasses of water a day. Is the jury still out as to the efficacy of this or better, why are these recommendations so specific?

Although water is a good thing...drinking water has little role in fat metabolization. The waste products of fat metabolization are CO2 and H2O. This is a gas and a liquid. We actually expel some of this Carbon dioxide gas in our breathing. Drinking water is not part of this process. Fat metabolism creates its own water.0
