Wow. I wish I was exaggerating. Yesterday morning I was 6 pounds heavier than this morning. I was stunned today when I stepped on the scale and noted the difference. I plan to continue doing the same things today that I did yesterday, but I cannot imagine it will make that great a difference today.
What did I do to lost 6 pounds overnight? I think the key was my increased consumption of water - not flavored, not coffeed, not changed in any way. I had about 11 cups of regular, cold tap water. That's approximately 88 ounces of water. For the purpose of weight loss, my ultimate goal is 12 cups a day right now, maybe I'll make it today.
Water is not the only thing I changed. I started using MyFitnessPal for counting calories. I am curious about what I'm consuming, I'll tell you what - if you've never counted calories - it's enlightening. I also worked toward exercise goals yesterday. I walked and biked for a combined total or 40 minutes cardio work. I hope to get to the gym tonight to do more strength training.
That's it - I drank a lot of water, tracked my calories, and exercised.
Oh, and snacked a lot on carrots and celery because, well, they're tasty.
What are your best weight loss tips?
