Weight control - drink water before meal
Are you struggling to reduce weight by eating less and having problems? Here is a tip. Drink water before eating. This will curb your appetite and you will eat less. According to study by Virginia Tech researchers published in the Journal of the American Dietetic Association (a US trade magazine), overweight and obese people who drank a half-litre water before breakfast ended up eating 75 calories less. This is equivalent to 27,375 calorie over a year which is equivalent to 3 kilogrammes of fat. If one is to drink water before every meal, the calories intake will be drastically reduced leading to weight loss over a long period.
