Water Diet

Want to lose a little bit of weight? How about the "water" diet?

The secret is in "when" you drink the water---and the weight loss results were pretty impressive!

I think just about everyone has tried one type of a diet or another. But the problem is they are either too confusing, too expensive or involve eating things you simply don't want to eat. But this new trick for losing weight could be as simple as drinking a couple of glasses of water before you sit down for a meal.

Researchers found that when people drank two glasses of water before eating they ended up eating around 90 calories less. And over a five week period that helped them lose five pounds more than dieters who didn't drink the water.

Part of the reason this happens is because the water helps fill the stomach so, by the time you sit down, your body isn't telling you to eat quite as much. And the beauty of water is, unlike sweetened drinks and sodas, it doesn't have any calories whatsoever.

So, to lose weight the easy way, you might want to grab those two glasses of water before picking up that fork and knife.
