With the holidays rapidly approaching, it's time to lay a solid fitness and weight loss base, so you can indulge in a little extra pumpkin pie later on.
Fad diets, starvation, and endless cardio sessions aren't the right way to lose weight. The real equation for losing your gut is no secret: Work off more than you put in your mouth.
A few tricks can stoke your metabolism and give your weight loss a little boost. One of the best weight loss tips is to drink more water and make sure you fill the glass with ice. Ice water is scientifically proven to burn more calories than room temperature water alone.
The science behind this phenomena? The body burns more calories when it has to raise the temperature of ice water to your body temperature. If you drink the recommended eight, 8 ounce glasses of water, you should burn an extra 70 calories a day.
Not only does ice water burn more calories, but it makes you feel more full. Many times when you think you're hungry, you're just thirsty. Fill your mouth with ice water instead of processed snack foods and your pants will be fitting looser before next week's blog entry.
Drink up!
