That's a good plan for losing weight. Just watch the calories. There are also other beverages you can drink other than water. Natural juices can help like vegetable juice. Just eat right and exercise. You got it!!! ]
It's a really great start and you're on the right track. I'm hindered by not being able to do much exercise, so I've learned that eating small meals throughout your day helps keep the metabolism going.
Cereal rocks, expecially multigrain with some kind of fruit and nuts. I tend to put my own raisins and some sliced almonds, just to make sure they are not sugar coated.
I have an orange or apple for mid morning snack, then a tuna wrap (with lettuce not a tortilla; cuts down on those unnessesary carbs) and an orange for lunch.
Then I have a yogurt with a few trisquits and some grapes for mid afternoon snack.
Finally the meal at night...chicken breast is a big hit, because you can grill it easily and throw it into a salad, or some whole grain pasta...
Cutting the junk out for as long as possible will help a great deal, but don't beat yourself up if you end up cheating...just know you'll do an extra 15 mins on your next work out! :-)
Working out is key, especially if you need to drop pounds quick, like me (I'm working my way to fitting into a nice wedding dress) so the cardio helps get those calories gone!
Keep thought, you can't lose weight if you eat more calories than you'll burn off.
Definitely keep the bottled water at hand...helps hold you over till your next meal, and not to mention, drinking cold water burns calories as it works to get to your body temperature...cool, huh??
Good Luck! ]
