Water with lemon for weight loss

Every morning, I drink water with lemon for weight loss.

Why lemon? I’ll talk about that in a moment…

Firstly, water helps digestion, absorption of food and eliminates residues. It regulates the body temperature as well as gives us a nice skin. I mean - think of it this way – our body is made up of 50 to 70 percent of water. Common sense would tell us to drink enough water each day.

Secondly, water is an essential component for weight loss. It is needed to break down food and convert it to energy in a process known as metabolism. Gladly, two thirds of the world is made of water in abundance. (I couldn’t imagine if we had to pay ten dollars for a glass of water, would you?)

Since starting on ‘FatLoss4Idiots’ weight loss plan, I drink so much water these days that now I need to drink something different …

However, most drinks give our body a lot of calories eg. soda and beverages. They usually have sugar. Coffee is my favorite beverage but it also contains caffeine which having too much is not good for the body.

So, I had to find an alternative – which is flavored water. Now, you have to beware of bottled fruit juice though as one day I read the label and got a rude shock. It contains 50 calories! I’m not going to drink that just as flavored water!

Fortunately, my wife heard this on radio one day – that the effect of lemon is that it is alkalizing to the body, cleansing and amazing for our skin and digestive system and recommended it for health and weight loss purposes.

Lemon water also cleanses and stimulates the liver and kidneys and now I drink water with lemon every morning to start my day. I recommend that you try it too.  Click here to lose 9 pounds in 11 days.
