Is your drive for weight loss doing you damage?
Page 1: Stay hydrated for weight loss |
Next Page |
'Losing weight' is one of the most common items a woman’s ‘To do’ list.
There are many reasons we can have it on our list: boosting our health, making us look better, giving more confidence, getting ready for a holiday, a desire to feel energised or to give greater self esteem. The view is that the good looking women are the women with the best figures, and these are the ones who have all the fun.
Unfortunately there are traps we can all fall into when trying to shift pounds.
One of the most common mistakes is to not drink enough fluid. Adequate water and proper hydration help our bodies to flush out toxins, to prevent headaches, to maintain energy levels, to keep their digestive systems working properly, and to maintain healthy skin.
But a litre of water weighs exactly a kilogram. So drinking less means the next time you step on the scales the reading looks better. It sounds like an easy win but in fact not drinking enough can cause a headache – literally and in terms of your efforts to loose weight.
Dehydration causes problems.
The scales may read slightly less in the very short term but you have not shifted any fat or excess weight. Instead you have made it harder to do so as your body is not going to be functioning as well as it should! You will have less energy. Your digestive system will not be working effectively - one part of being dehydrated is that your perception of hunger is messed up so you eat when you shouldn’t or more than is needed. Also your skin will not be looking good!
All-in-all for saving the odd pound you have done more harm than good to what the scales are going to say in the longer term, to how you look, to how you feel and to how healthy you are.
