Researchers presenting last week at an American Chemical Society meeting gave a shot in the arm to a weight-loss technique that's been around forever. In a study of middle-aged and older adults, they found that drinking two cups of water before a meal may speed weight loss when dieting.
On the face of it, it's good advice. The benefits of getting plenty of fluid go well beyond just helping us achieve healthy weights. As far as weight loss goes, we've also recognized for some time that confusing thirst for hunger can lead to eating when we're not really hungry. By staying well-hydrated, we short-circuit that confusion before it even begins.

A personal journey from obesity to competition. Openly sharing my struggles, successes and emotions from being an obese food addict to training for my first body building competition, I hope to inspire and motivate individuals to realize that YOU can accomplish anything you truly desire. I will post pages on diet, exercise, supplements, weight loss surgery, and other health topics
