Weight Loss Tip # 1 - Water, Water, Water

Water is the key to weight loss. It's VERY important to get your 8 glasses of water everyday; even if you have to trick yourself. Our bodies are more than 50% water. Your body needs water to conduct several processes.

So, here a simple and easy way to get started: Drink a 32 oz cup of water in the morning while getting ready for work. Drink a 32 oz cup of water during the day at work and drink the remaining 8 -10 ounces in the evening when you get home.

November 2008 WLC - New Group

The 2nd weight loss challenge group started November 11th. While the group was small (only 3 people) it was very lively and we learned a lot from each other. One of the biggest challenges for this group was having to manage through 2 major holidays - Thanksgiving and Christmas. Even through this very challenging time, the winner of the challenge managed to lose 9 lbs. What a great accomplishment! Most people gain that much and she was able to lose it during the holiday season. Hats off to you, Freda!
