WATER, WATER EVERYWHERE



You can go a while without food (yes you
can), but you can not live long without
water!

Drinking water has plenty of advantages.
It helps fill your stomach – which can help
suppress your appetite. Water also helps
flush your system of toxins. And it
regulates our body temperature.

Water is essential to many of our body
processes. Yet, most of us do not drink
nearly enough!

So, how much water is enough?

You have probably heard that you should drink 8 – 8oz glasses of water
throughout the day.

According to the Mayo Clinic - it depends on the person! Again, talk to
your doctor about this.

The information from the Mayo Clinic is here:

TIP: If you can’t stand to drink plain water, try adding a slice of lemon,
lime, or orange!

See…water does not have to be boring, but it is a necessity! ;-)

CREATING A PLAN FOR YOU… AND YOUR LIFESTYLE



There are tons of information out there on dieting.
And that is one of the problems.

How in the world are you supposed to find the right
one?

There is not one diet plan that fits everyone. So, the
trick is to find one that fits YOU.

It may take some work, but here are some resources you can investigate:

The South Beach Diet

LA Weight Loss Centers

The Shifting Calories Method

(NOTE: There are more resources at the end of this report!)

What you may end up doing is taking bits and pieces from several ideas
and making your own custom diet. There is nothing wrong with that …
as long as it is healthy. Remember, consult your doctor with the ideas
you gain from these sources!!

Here are some things to look for in a plan:

• Look for one that makes sense to you; one that you can live with
every day
• Look for one that not only helps you lose weight sensibly, but also
helps you maintain your weight loss
• Make sure that the plan provides you with the nutrients that your
body needs

No matter what your diet plan ends up looking like, it is up to YOU to
make it a part of your life.

And remember, small steps!
