Water Retention/ Ailments

Good morning all,

We are almost to the end of our very first week together, however the challenges that we do through out the week should be something that we strive to implement into our daily lives. So, next week when we move on to a new challenge i expect everyone to continue drinking the required amount of water for their body weight.

So this is very important, if you are an individual suffering from such ailments as Diabetes, Hypertension or any other please consult with your doctor. Maybe you can call the office and just ask to speak with your doctor, some hospitals has the ask a nurse program where you call and ask about certain non emergency things, so don't be afraid to seek some help before you commit to anything.

I also wanted to address the issue of water retention this morning. I was surprised to find out that that one of the causes of water retention is "not drinking enough water", your body become dehydrated, therefore it tends to hold on to what ever liquid it can. Another cause of this problem is eating to much salt, so if you suspect that you might be retaining water pay close attention to the amount of sodium in your food, whether it's something packaged or canned or the amount of salt you put into you meals. Cellulite, yes the culprit, it to retains water, so people if there's cellulite we have to get that body part moving, get them out.

There are a host of other reasons why our bodies retain water, do your research people and get educated on the subject. Retaining water makes us appear much bigger than we really are, if we do the right things to get that water out you are likely to see weight loss.
