My new hangout...

...nature trail...


I walked 3 miles around the trail..it was so serene....I'm starting to spend alot more time outside these days. I'm still a home-body but these impromptu nature strolls are becoming more frequent. This was the first summer since I was a kid where the warm weather didn't really bother me. Its nice to turn everything off and chill outdoors.

I'm GUILTY!


...although I will recycle these water bottles its still a shame that I am a co-conspirator to the crime! LOL! I need to invest in a good water filter system and reusable non-plastic water bottles to avoid the excessive use of plastics....I'm sure the planet will thank me for it!

Drinking water and losing weight!



"Drink 8 glasses of water each day" is what we hear all the time but what weight loss benefits do we get from drinking water?



All functions within the body require the presence of water. A well hydrated body enables these functions to occur quickly and efficiently. All chemical processes involve energy metabolism and drinking plenty of water will make us feel more energetic and boost our metabolic rate.


Water makes your metabolism burn calories 3% faster.



Drinking water is important if you're trying to lose weight, some studies have shown that thirst and hunger sensations are triggered together. If there is a slight dehydration the thirst mechanism may be mistaken for hunger and one may eat when the body is actually craving fluid. As most food contains some water, if one doesn't drink much they may be subconsciously driven to eat more to gain the necessary water supply however, you also gain the undesired effects of increased calorie consumption. Drinking more water can help to prevent overeating and benefit weight loss.
