WATER!

Hey guys, so here I have included a study I found on the importance of including water in your diet and substituting other beverages for water.  The amount of calories that the average american takes in in beverages a day is astonishing.  Water also helps control hunger.  When the body is dehydrated, the pain can actually be mistaken for hunger leading to the consumption of excess calories that your body doesn't even need.  This article also recommends keeping track of the amount of water you drink each day instead of just estimating.  Many would be surprised how little water they actually consume in a day.  I try to drink at least a gallon of water each day to help my body run smoothly.  Try upping your water intake for a week and record how you feel, I am sure there will be a difference!
