Good Food: Phase I.

So at this point you’re wondering, “What is this The 3 Goods thing.” Well it’s pretty simple. Good Food, Good Exercise and Good Soul. But how do we accomplish this. The first step is Good Food. The food issue is the largest part of the whole overweight thing. If you think about your body in sense of it being a car, the better the gas you put in, the better performance you get out. Same with your body. For your body to be efficient we need good gas! That’s the start of all this. We are teaching out body’s again how to use calories effectively.

Phase I. Water

The country heck the world is a POP chugging nation. We pour tons of this black cancer in our systems a year and think that because It says 0 calories or sugar free it’s ok. Wrong. Most of the calories are gone but ALL if not more of the sodium is replaced. We then get to the point where our bodies are not getting enough water! Out kidneys get the message and starting storing anything that has water in it thinking it’s going to dehydrate. So we fix this by flooding out system with water. A good amount, say about a gallon a day. This does lots of good things. It tells our kidneys that it can stop going into overdrive and stop storing the water “Thanks, but we got plenty now!” You can lose a large portion of weight in the first couple weeks just from this stored water! Then for the body to get the water up to usable temperatures it has to user your metabolism to heat it up. This requires more fuel to be used. Colder water works better for this. Also by filling up with water we fill a litter bit fuller as well when it comes time to eat. Makes sense doesn’t it. So the First stage of the Good Food process is water! Drink it all up and see how that helps this week.
