Foods That Slim You Down

By: Chaszey Sandhriel

Since the gas has gotten so expensive I decided that my car needed to go on a fuel diet. So I stopped putting gas into my car but continued driving to places. Until that infamous moment when the car stopped in the middle of the highway. It had run out of gas Of course this is a joke and not a real story, although this happens to people every day. Interestingly enough, as people we purposely stop feeding our bodies by withholding fuel from it and demanding for it to continue to not only work, but work better than before.

How ludicrous and illogical!

Yet somehow feeding our bodies and losing weight seems to have hit a wall and we try diet after diet, none of which work. In fact we know that 90% of all diets fail.

So instead of depriving your body from food, what about simply adding three powerful weight loss enhancing foods, that can encourage your natural weight loss. There are no foods to cut out, only foods to add, here they are:

1. Squeeze 2 pink grapefruits each day and drink on an empty stomach. Make sure that you do not add sugar or any other sweeteners to it and that you do not eat at least 15 afterwards. Fruit in general, except banana, does not need any digestive juices. If you eat fruit with your meals, your fruit has to sit there in your stomach along with the other food that needs to be digested first. Often at the detriment of fermenting fruit, which causes stomach aches to many.

2. It is essential to drink a full gallon of water per day. Yes, you heard right. When I first heard this, I was certain that my bladder wouldn't be able to handle it, but I listened and was amazed at how easily the weight started to come off and I was also hungry a lot less. You will realize that you won't be as hungry as you were before, because your body was actually telling you that you were thirsty. It's important to drink water without ice or lemons added to it.

3. Foods that contain high-water content are excellent for you. In particular they are great snack foods. These foods rich in water content are tasty foods such as dikon radish, other radishes, celery sticks, and iceberg lettuce to name a few. The are better if eaten raw than cooked. Such foods also give you a feeling of being full and their juices do a great job in flushing out those non-productive cells.
