Water Water Water

Did you know that most of what you drink (coffee, tea, and soft drinks) are all diuretics. They actually make you more thirsty, not less. As if that weren’t bad enough, all the sugar in those drinks lowers your immune system and causes you to gain weight.

Did you know that it’s impossible to tell the difference between a feeling of hunger and a feeling of thirst? Oftentimes, when you eat, you’re really not hungry at all. You’re just thirsty but didn’t know it. The only way to tell the difference is drink a glass of water and wait a few minutes. You may find that’s all you needed.

Only water has the pure, cleansing properties necessary to sustain life and restore your good health.

So today, do yourself a favor and drink only water. It’s only for 1 day. It’ll be over before you know it. But you will have proved to yourself that you are in fact committed to losing that extra weight that’s been holding you back and gaining all the health you deserve.

What a great way to start the day! I’m challenging you to drink only water today.
