Using Liquid to Lose Weight

This is the third article in a series of fast fat burning tips.  Using liquid to help you diet and lose weight is by no means a new concept.  However, it is a surprisingly underused technique that can go a long way towards helping you eat less and lose more weight.  The method is simple: drink lots of liquid in order to make you feel full faster.  Preferably, you would drink water, since your body needs it and it doesn't contain any calories.  Whenever you get a snack craving during the day, drink a glass of water or two to fill up your stomach; hopefully you wont be hungry any more.  Even if you still feel like you need something to eat, chances are you wont be able to eat as much.  Be wary of using juice or sports drinks as your liquid of choice, as the calories (and sugar) can quickly add up.

Another fast fat burning liquid is soup.  Eating soup for lunch or dinner can help stave off those afternoon or late night snack cravings, as consuming that much liquid often leaves you feeling full for hours to come.  Be sure to check the food label for the calorie count and any hydrogenated oils to find the healthiest soup option.  A meal of just soup and a class of water can be surprisingly filling, as well as heatly.  For a large number of people, the hardest part of dieting and losing weight is that they are always hungry.  By filling your stomach with liquid, you can prevent this pitfall and feel full until your next meal without an in between snack.
