Book Reviews of Drink This Not That!: The No-Diet Weight Loss SolutionBook Review: INCREDIBLY HELPFUL - Read this book and CHANGE Your LIFE - 5 STARS !!!! Summary: 5 Stars
A book like this has the power to help you implement incredible changes in your diet and food intake in such a way that you will dramatically lose weight and feel no hunger whatsoever. This is because we are dealing with your fluid intake which is never filling, no matter how much you drink. Just think about this however. You would have to cut your fluid intake by half, that's right, 50% just to be back to what the average American drank 30 years ago. If you did that, you would also lose about 23 pounds per year.
Somewhere in the last 20 or 30 stars Americas went through a perception change, and they started to drink soda as the equivalent of water. About 15 years ago, the average American drank as much soda per day as they did water, which tells you about what a massive change we have all gone through. Today the average American consumes about a gallon of soda per week. There is no nutritional content - it is simply wasted calories.
The Coca Cola Company is responsible for 5% of the consumption of all the sugar in the world, that's the whole planet. Fortunately for them, they use enormous amounts of fructose corn syrup, which is cheap and absolutely horrible on the human body, but it has created enormous profits for the food industry. If you want to do yourself a favor, look at the labeling on the food packages you buy, if it contains this product, just walk away. You will lose weight by making that decision.
In 1980 we consumed on average 2 and a half gallons of bottled water per year. Now many Americans only drink water in a bottled format. It's telling you something, and the PET bottles that it comes in, cannot be good for either you or the environment. By the way 85% of all coke is sold via PET bottles. It's all here in this powerful book.
My favorite section of the book is the 20 worst drinks in America. Some of the drinks mentioned were:
* Snapple Agave Melon Anti-Oxidant water - you get 150 calories and 33 grams of sugar - unbelievable
* Sob Green Tea - 240 calories and 61 grams of sugar - you think you are doing the right thing, and you are flooding your body with sugar
* Rock Star Energy Drink - An amazing 280 calories and 62 grams of sugar
In Chapter 1 of this book, the author will blow you away when he tells you that swearing off soda and iced tea for one year will lead to a 20 pound annual weight loss. In addition if you drink 8 glasses of iced water per day it will also lead to substantial weight loss. This is because the body must use energy to heat up the ice water to your body temperature which is 98.6 degrees. It is also suggested that you drink a glass of water immediately upon waking up in the morning. This will enable you to cut your daily food intake by 13%, which can amount to a 21 pound annual weight loss. By the way 40% of all bottled water from the tap, just look at the Dasani label on the bottle as an example.
CONCLUSION
Of course it is too much to ask, but if you can substantially cut liquid drinks out of your daily intake, you will radically alter your body weight over time. Liquid calories are WASTED CALORIES. They simply do not fill you up. A book like this can radically change your life. If you are serious about weight change in your body than you need to understand the value or non-value of the drinks you are taking into your body, and thank you for reading this review.
