Want a quick and easy way to lose weight and save some money?
Stop and for a minute and think about your daily fluid intake. Better yet write it down. Keep a daily journal of your fluid intake for one week. You might be a little surprised at the amount of calories you consume through fluids. Recent studies show that the average adult american consumes over 21% of all total calories from fluids, double of what is was in the 1960's.

While you're keeping your journal make sure to make a note each time you stop at a convenience to get a drink even if it's a bottle of water. Were you surprised at the amount of calories and money you were wasting on your fluid intake? It adds up and fast.
