How What You Drink Sabotages Your Weight Loss Goals
Many people are very conscientious about what they eat when they want to lose weight. But equally as important is what do drink when trying to lose weight. This is an important topic. Many people literally drink themselves fat.
The best drinks to raise your metabolism are water with lemon and green tea. But more important is what NOT to drink when trying to lose weight.
I know that probably sounds boring but you really need to wean yourself off of drinking sweet drinks all day long. It is one of the worst ways to ruin your weight loss efforts that I can imagine.
Sweet drinks makes you want more sweets. It’s just that simple. Given a choice it is actually better to have sugar than high fructose corn syrup which is hidden in most fruit juice and sodas. When you consume corn syrup, your body doesn’t register that you’ve eaten anything, so it doesn’t allay your hunger at all – it actually makes you hungrier. What a dieting disaster!
Drinking sweet drinks all day contributes to what I call “chaotic eating” and a higher consumption of junk food calories. Ever notice when you drink a soda or a beer, it makes you want to eat a salty snack like pretzels or potato chips? Why do you think they give you free salty snacks at happy hour? To make you buy more beer!
Drinking diet soda is even worse. It has been shown to stimulate your appetite, increase your craving for sweets, increase your fat storage hormone levels, and makes you eat more, besides the negative health effects of artificial sweeteners.
Coffee has been shown to raise your metabolism, but you should only drink it black or with a little milk. No more frappacino’s or other luscious coffee drinks – they can be over 500 calories! Drink one of these a day, and you might gain a pound a week and wonder where it’s coming from! Since coffee is addictive and diuretic, I don’t consider it a health item, so drink in moderation if you love it.
I make my own delicious iced teas. Green tea now comes in yummy flavored versions like mango, blueberry, and peach. If you want a totally caffeine free tea, try one of the yummy peach, cherry, or tangerine “zingers”. If you drink them iced you will burn an extra 200 calories per day bringing them to body temperature.
If you like your tea sweet, add stevia, a healthy no calorie sweetener made from the leaf of a green leafy shrub. It comes in little packs just like the blue, pink and yellow stuff. Carry it with you so you can sweeten iced tea or add it to water with lemon for a refreshing, guilt-free lemonade.
