Drink Plenty of Water

Starting your day with a glass or two of water is a simple way to help you lose weight. For at least 60 minutes, water can help you increase your energy expenditure, or the number of calories your body burns. Drinking 16.9 fluid ounces (500 ml) of water increased metabolic rate by 30% on average in one small research.

Another study found that overweight women who increased their water intake to more than 34 ounces (one liter) per day lost an additional 4.4 pounds (2 kg) over the course of a year without changing their diet or exercise routine. Furthermore, drinking water has been shown to reduce appetite and food intake in some people. Drinking 16.9 fluid ounces (500 ml) of water reduced the number of calories consumed at breakfast by 13% in a study of 24 older adults. In fact, most studies on the topic have found that consuming 34–68 ounces (1–2 liters) of water per day can help you lose weight. Starting your day with a glass of water and remaining hydrated throughout the day is a great way to lose weight quickly and easily.
