Guest trancepriest Posted October 18 Report Share Posted October 18 Lately i've been drinking Perrier mineral water. I have to say that it has solved a lot of weight related problems I've been having. Before when I tried to diet I would feel very weak around 4 to 6pm. It was impossible for me to diet because of this. I would feel hungry and weak most of the time. That's all changed since I've been drinking mineral water. For the last 2 weeks I've been on one meal a day and 2 bottles of Perrier (I also drink regular water too). I don't feel weak... I conduct my regular activities which includes a good amount of cycling. This is a revolutionary change for me. I've dropped in weight from 230 pounds to 218 pounds. In just 2 weeks... I know this sounds like an ad... LOL. Everyday I wake up and I'm losing more and more weight. So I started doing some research into mineral water and exactly what minerals I'm drinking. The mineral report is here:http://www.nestle-watersna.com/Menu/OurBrands/Perrier/Perrier+Quality+Report.htmhttp://www.nestle-watersna.com/pdf/PR_BWQR_123106.pdfI also found this on the benefits of Magnesium:http://www.shirleys-wellness-cafe.com/magnesium.htmI can see why in the old days they referred to these waters as The Cure. Something is in the water... whatever it is its making me feel great. Now if only i can get down to my Marine Corps weight and put my dress blues on.

ryan2772 Posted October 18 Report Share Posted October 18 i thought it was just carbonated water. i can't drink it though, think it's gross. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest trancepriest Posted October 18 Report Share Posted October 18 I used to think so too. 2 weeks a go i drinked an entire bottle of Perrier and I could feel the effects in my brain. I knew something was different and just kept drinking it daily.. then I noticed I don't get hungry as much... that was like my eureka moment... LOL. My diet before must have been missing out on some of these minerals.. perhaps even severely... which was leading to overeating. It's like my body was telling me I needed something and I had no clue what it was.Now I don't mind the taste. I feel it even compliments certain things I'm eating. I haven't touched soda in 2 weeks too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now, does this only apply for sparkling mineral water? Or are there flat mineral water brands? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest trancepriest Posted October 18 Report Share Posted October 18 Haha, yeah... you do sound like an ad. Now, does this only apply for sparkling mineral water? Or are there flat mineral water brands?I've only tried the sparkling brands... like San Pellegrino and Perrier. I can only testify to what is working for me.. which is Perrier brand. I have a good feeling that Pellegrino would give me the same results. Perrier is also cheaper than Pellegrino. I found a Publix with it on sale for $2.70 for 4 bottles. I'll check it out at Sams Club this weekend and see if I can get it even cheaper.I found this further link too:http://www.xanga.com/MrsCatherine/514818850/diet-challenge--the-benefits-of-drinking-mineral-water.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest HouseJunkie Posted October 18 Report Share Posted October 18 You could get the same results from a single Vitamin tablet and regular sewage ... er.. I mean tap water. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest trancepriest Posted October 18 Report Share Posted October 18 You could get the same results from a single Vitamin tablet and regular sewage ... er..

V. Barbarino Posted October 18 Report Share Posted October 18 TP, just take some of this.. It will get you fired up! Protein is a wonder drug that all peeps should take.. Not only does it get your body going, it gets your brain going... Without my protein I feel sluggish.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest RzO Posted October 18 Report Share Posted October 18 proteien for sure is needed, i have my shake daily. I love perrier citron. i drink abotu 2-3 bottles a weak. and it is soo good with vodka too for nite time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest JMT Posted October 18 Report Share Posted October 18 i like Pellegrino and Aqua Nepi. it's good to mix it up with sparkling water with a meal on occasion and i agree that it can compliment the food. but when i am parched i need the regular stuff, sewage or not, otherwise i don't feel my thirst getting quenched.

Guest trancepriest Posted October 31 Report Share Posted October 31 This shit is working... down to 208 pounds.... lost 22 pounds in 24 days. I've found out that Pellegrino is even more stronger than Perrier... still too expensive for an everyday habit though. Still on my 2 bottles a day .5L Perrier plus one full meal diet (mostly fish.. sushi or baked... chicken every now and then). I'm strong enough to cycle for an hour a day and I'm not getting hungry.

Guest jbit Posted October 31 Report Share Posted October 31 For the last 2 weeks I've been on one meal a day and 2 bottles of Perrier (I also drink regular water too)1 meal a day? I can see why you've never been able to diet before. When i diet I eat 5 small meals (300 calories) a day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest JMT Posted October 31 Report Share Posted October 31 Perrier plus one full meal diet (mostly fish.. sushi or baked... chicken every now and then)fish almost every day? you might want to 'scale' it back before you turn into a human thermometer.

Guest Mattivi Posted October 31 Report Share Posted October 31 1 meal a day? I can see why you've never been able to diet before. When i diet I eat 5 small meals (300 calories) a day.True, Ive been eating 5-6 small meals a day for years and the weight stays off as long as I stay active. Eating one meal a day is not a healthy way to lose weight, its like any other yo-yo diet, eventually you will just gain the weight back. When the body only sees one meal a day, it will go into starvation mode, and pack on the next meal as fat as it thinks it wont see another meal for a long period of time. small meals stoke the metabolic furnace keeping the body burning calories all day.

Guest Mattivi Posted October 31 Report Share Posted October 31 Good call DJ Peace, i love walnuts as they are packed with Omega3s and increased mental function. here is my typical day meal plan:Meal 1: Bowl of high fiber cerealMeal 2: Meal Replacement Drink or Muscle Milk Shake. I Also eat an apple, pear, or any other available raw fruit. I mix it up from week to week. Love fruits and veggies, keeps digestive system functioning properly.Meal 3: Lunch: Healthy Sandwich with another piece of raw fruitMeal 4: Yogurt with a side of walnuts, or fruitWorkoutMeal 5: Post Workout Carb/Whey Protein Shake. Postworkout shake is one of the most important componets of building a healthy tone body. Repletes the body with essential nutrients and muscle building protein and absorbs much faster than a whole meal. Also have shake within an hour of training as body is in an anabolic state, and is need of nutrition because of the muscle being broken down from training.Meal 6: Dinner. Lots of options here. Usually i eat a lean source of protein with rice and beans and a vegetable or salad.I think the most important thing here is to always try to combine your meals with all three macronutrients, fat, protien, and carbs, as it keeps insulin levels steady. spikes in insulin form eating carb heavy diets can add pounds like mad, and is also linked to type 2 diabetes. As cliche as it sounds balance is key. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest trancepriest Posted November 4 Report Share Posted November 4 I've noticed that my energy level has actually increased on this one meal a day diet (and 2 bottles of perrier... also regular water too). My guess is that my body is converting fat into energy. Today I cycled about 40 miles and I was OK... even more than OK.. faster than normal. This is after I walked about 2 hours the day before. I wouldn't suggest this one meal a day diet for a skinny person or a person with a high metabolism. I also won't be on a one meal a day diet forever. This is day 28. I'm actually thinking of fasting for a day or two... not to lose weight but to test something. I've been doing some research on fasting as away to cleanse the body of toxins. Will try it for a day or two beginning tomorrow. If I'm feeling Ok will push it even longer. For all the people suggesting six meals a day, etc... will try that when I'm skinny. Fat is stored energy... my believe is that we can let go of food for a while if you have alot of fat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
