One thing I've found that drops weight real fast.. I'm doing it now and I swear by it... ICE WATER. It works. I drink about 1-1.5 gal. of ice water a day now.
The benefits are many.
* Cleans out your system
* Supresses your appetite
* Your body warming up the water burns cals
* Kidneys are thrilled because they can metabolize more fat.
* All of this, in turn, speeds up your metaboism.
* Even if you stray, just keep drinking water and your body will burn it off.
Got a bowflex and it was one of the most important factors mentioned in their book about dropping weight.
I know it seems like alot of water. It's hard at first. You work up to it. But the great thing is your body will want more water. But do take precautions. Stay close to a restroom :) |
Definetly. Water is very good. Even when I stopped working out about about 3 months ago, I kept on drinking water and kept the weight gain to a minimum. I drink around 3-6 20 oz. bottles a day, sometimes more. Good thing the restroom ain't far from my desk. :p I did start working out again, though, so I'm set...the eating part is a BITCH, though... :mad: :whip:
*EDIT* Another thign I've been doing is drinking water with pure lemon juice. That also helps me with the appetite suppression and stuff. Tastes NASTY :wtf: but you get used to it after a while. ;) |

for appetite supression, could try a teaspoon of peanut butter. It's got the kind of fat that will easily break down and it is said to help the cravings that carbo-junkies like myself have had.
Soda, by the way is evil! Stay away from it at all cost. |

el.maestro, dude believe me, I'm always drinking water, it gets me through the day! The only time I don't is time to get worried :stongue:
But seriously, the only times I don't is when I eat my cercal or when I drink something like OJ. |

Aha!!!
I was also a big fan of cereal and OJ. Turns out OJ is loaded with carbs & dairy does not help either. I didn’t start to see real results until I aggressively cut out carbs almost entirely. Now, I wouldn’t recommend starving. But try having fruit for breakfast. Up until about noon, your body is still in a digesting cycle. Allowing that cycle to complete will have a big impact. The fruit eaten any other time of the day is a waste because your body won’t get the nutrients.
Keep some V8 veg. juice around and some Gatorade to replace the salt and nutrients lost from drinking so much water.
If you start getting headaches, feeling like krap, and become real irritable, then you’re doing it right. What’s happening is that you’re going cold turkey. It will take a few days, maybe a week. But after that, the cravings are gone.
After that it becomes a matter of eating because you think you should and not because you’re hungry. Be careful in this stage because you might be tempted not to eat. I didn’t eat for a few days. Bad idea. Make sure you eat at least one good meal a day. Keeping the portions small won’t be an issue at this point. You’ll be surprised how fast you fell full. |

The drunk/high thread got merged into this thread.
