Hate Drinking Water???

Oct 06, 2011

Hey OHer's

How is everyone today? I hope doing well and making it happen for yourselves.  Well i wanted to share a great remedy to those of you out there that may hate drinking water but will drink everything else. Well for me, i am one of those people who hates drinking water but know I need to in order to help clense and stay healthy.  Originally, I would get my water in by drinking lots of "Crystal light" after surgery but then got worried about all the 'Aspartame' I was ingesting in my body.

So I spoke to my doctor about another sugar substitute that is all natural without the health side effects you get with 'Crystal Light." Well my doctor told me about 'Stevia,' a great natural sugar substitute without any side effects and made from sugar. Everyday I drink at least 2 quarts of 'Crystal Light' a day.  However, since finding Stevia, I decided to try something a little different.  I filled my thermos with 16 0z of water, and 1/4 cup of pure Lemon juice, and about 6 packets to the 'Stevia.'

Well to my surprise, I have found that the 'Lemon juice' was actually helping to speed up my metabolisim, and causing me to use the bathroom more frequently and keep me full longer.  Currently, I excerise at least 3 times a week and I am sipping on that lemon water mixture all day.  My last liquid before I go to bed is always ending out with the lemon water. Well...

OH MY GOD! I have found that in one week of drinking the lemon water throughout the day has actually caused me to lose about 4 pounds in this week alone.  I wake up and get on the scale after my morning void and I am floored when I see the scale actually moving backward!   I can almost fill my 'waistliine' smaller upon rising and I know its going to be a good weigh-in.

WHAT AN AWESOME DISCOVERY for me! I am able to get the water in without any fuss and speed up my metabolisim at the same time! The lemon water along with a 3 day a week fitness regimen, and a balanced diet has caused me to drop a few pounds and lean out my body.   So I am very happy about that and thought that I would share this great tip with all of you.  If ur like me and u hate drinking water on a constant basis.  Try the lemon water mx and u wont be sorry!

Until next time, take care all, and happy WL journey to u!
