Water before each meal….
Okay, it’s kind of a no brainer that we need to drink lots of water right……we hear it all the time, blah, blah, blah, 8 glasses a day, etc.
BUT…..at the suggestion of a friend, I now drink at least 1 full glass of water before I eat breakfast, lunch OR dinner. It seriously helps me to feel satisfied sooner than I normally might. And, for those of us who struggle to get 8 glasses a day in, we’ll get 3 in for sure.

Drink your glass of water during your meals, between each bite. It takes from 10-20 minutes for food to reach your digestive system to have the feeling of ‘fullness’, so if you take sips of water between bites, not only do you create a feeling of fullness by drinking water and eat slower to give the time for your brain to receive this signal, but you’ll be less likely to binge or overeat. Good luck!
