Alkaline Water News [Water Wellness]

Even with a water ionizer it is probably uncommon to NOT gain weight over the holidays! So what do you do?

If you know anything about ionized water, you probably are aware that by drinking alkaline ionized water you provide buffers to your body which helps you get rid of acid wastes [including fats] in your cells. Without the benefit of alkalinity that ionized water gives you, you may hit plateaus where you just quit losing weight! So, a water ionizer is a great help to anyone trying to lose weight!

If you don’t yet have a water ionizer, call or write me and I’ll make sure you get a great deal! Mention this blog post for a great water ionizer discount! I sell all water ionizers.

It’s important to realize that ionized water isn’t enough stimulus for weight loss all by itself. My 17 1/2 years of experience with ionized water tells me you need a few more things. I’d like to share these weight loss tips with my blog readers, so here it goes [please remember these are tips from me to you -- not medical advice]:

• Drink at least 1 gallon of ionized water per day [spread throughout the day]
• Don’t diet without determination! A yo-yo diet [gaining/losing/gaining/losing] is unhealthy, so if you start into a diet, do it “cold turkey” and do not allow even the slightest deviation from the routine. Realize that once you arrive at your target weight, you will need to establish and follow a long-term eating routine that keeps you at that weight [except maybe when you go on a cruise or have a vacation or holiday come around].
  • If you find yourself time after time cheating [because you don't have enough determination and/or control -- which IS needed] then pay for a weight loss program.
  • You do need determination and strength, and for some people that is easier than for others.
  • I will suggest one thing, that if you think you can just cheat here and there and still lose your needed weight — think about your past history. Has this approach or attitude worked for you in the past? If so, then you don’t need to read this blog post. But be honest with yourself; most people need to be strong and unwavering in order to actually lose those needed pounds and keep them off.
• Establish a 3-meal-per-day [and 1-2 snacks if desired] plan for yourself. Here is the plan that works for me [which I am doing right now]! For some reason, I don’t feel excessively hungry on this diet, and I can go for several hours without thinking of food. Keep in mind your body usually has an adjustment period when you change diet habits. If you hang-in-there for about 2-3 days, you’ll get through this adjustment period. So, if on ”Day #2″ you have hunger pains, maybe add a small snack…i.e. apple, to help you through it. Don’t despair. This type of thing should only be temporary. Hunger pains are the kind of thing that go away once you’re grooved into your new diet patterns within about 2 or 3 days. 
  • Breakfast:
    • I have 1 egg boiled or fried in water or a little PAM
    • I have about 1/2 cup fresh uncooked veggies [I use cauliflower, but you could substitute broccoli, celery, lettuce, spinach] [stay away from peas, potatoes, corn, and canned veggies]
    • I have no salad dressing [you could use maybe a little vinegar...no oil]
    • I have 6 wheat saltines [you could substitute another kind of no-fat cracker]
  • Lunch:
    • I have 3-4 oz. lean meat [like chicken, tuna, turkey]
    • I have about 1/2 cup fresh uncooked veggies [I use cauliflower, but you could substitute broccoli, celery, lettuce, spinach] [stay away from peas, potatoes, corn, and canned veggies]
    • I have no salad dressing [you could use maybe a little vinegar...no oil]
    • I have 6 wheat saltines [you could substitute another kind of no-fat cracker]
  • Dinner:
    • I have 3-4 oz. lean meat [like chicken, tuna, turkey]
    • I have about 1/2 cup slightly-cooked veggies [I use cauliflower, broccoli, celery & a couple of little carrot pieces] [You could substitute lettuce, spinach, etc... but stay away from peas, potatoes, corn, and canned veggies]
    • I have no salad dressing [you could use maybe a little vinegar...no oil]
    • I have 6 wheat saltines [you could substitute another kind of no-fat cracker]
  • Snacks: I don’t always feel a need for a snack, and when I don’t …then I don’t have a snack. But if I’m too hungry in between meals or even when it’s close to bed time….I’ll have one of the following [however not more than twice per day]:
    • apple [I usually choose this, but the others are okay too]
    • banana
    • orange/or grapefruit
    • pear
    • strawberries
    • [no grapes, cherries, or dried fruit]
• You may need to adjust this to suit your desired weight. I’m 5′7″ and my desired weight is 135 lbs. A 6′ tall man, for instance, may need double the amounts I’m consuming.
• Once you get close to your desired weight [within 5 lbs.], then you should begin to add extra food and exercize into the mix. I’m not a good exercizer, so I’ll leave those tips for someone else to give. However, I believe that any kind of hard work [gardening, painting, cleaning] is a good potential substitute for the exercize your body needs.
  • For extra food: A little at a time [like maybe one portion of one of the following items extra per day], add some salad dressing, bread, mayo, and fattier meats. Continue to add a little per day [and even increase some of your above portions] until your weight loss stops at your desired weight. Take your time getting back slowly to a more normal eating routine. Spread this out over about 3-4 weeks.
  • Once you start adding things to your diet, you may find yourself still losing …even beyond your desired weight. This is not a signal to start over eating. Just continue to add a little more portions or items at a time until you are stabilized. You can also add a sweet [like a desert or something] here and there. Watch the scale and be ready to backtrack if you’ve added too much.

I’d be interested in finding out how successful these weight loss tips are for people who try them. They’ve always worked for me — very well! Please come back after trying my tips and let me know how you do. Thanks!
