Drink more water!

Options
This is an important part of weight loss and this article hits all the reasons why! What it says about decreasing appetite is true, the first day I decided to keep refilling my water bottle at my desk and sipping it all day, I wasn't hungry for lunch until 3pm! which is probably how I would feel every day if i had a giant bagel with a slathering of cream cheese on it for breakfast, like i was doing every day for a long time. Sometimes your stomach feels empty and you think you're hungry, but your body is really craving water. Read this article and join me in drinking more water!

    Thanks for the link. It was a great article and explained the rationale clearly. I notice that whenever I up my water intake (I prefer flavored water), I lose more quickly. 20 pounds in the last 8 weeks. I'm sure that I could have lost faster, but I think losing sensibly and developing better habits is the key to maintaining. Only time will tell! Another 20 to go and I'll be in the middle of my ideal weight range!!! YAY!!!

    Great~! You can do it! I like throwing lemon, lime, orange or cucumber slices in my water to change it up some, makes it go down a little easier!

    I started drinking more water this week and I've noticed that everyday I've had a dull headache. I rarely ever get headaches and I'm kinda thinking it's from the extra water.

    Has this happened to anyone else?
