How effective is drinking lemon water for weight loss?
It is told that lemon water helps with weight loss, but how effective is it? Not the detox diet, but just drinking lemon water throughout the day, how much weight could you possibly lose in a week? In a month? I am curious to know how effective it really is in losing weight.

Actually, just drinking any kind of water will significantly help with weight loss.
Water helps to improve liver function. Your liver helps you metabolize and burn fat easily. But when you are dehydrated, your kidneys will have trouble functioning, and your liver will have to pick up the slack.
Now, let’s think about this for a minute…
If you were your liver, would you be more concerned with burning fat, or helping out your ailing kidneys? That’s what I thought! And that’s exactly what your liver does.
So, if you want to start your body’s natural fat-burning process, make sure you stay hydrated.
Also, drinking water, whether it’s got lemon in it or not, will help you feel fuller throughout the day. This will keep you from snacking on unhealthy foods and help you limit your portion sizes too.
I hope this helps.

How long after major weight loss should you give your skin to firm up before resorting to plastic surgery?
If I had some loos skin on tummy and arms after an 80 pound weight loss, how long should I give it to firm up? Im young, 23 years old, but will the skin tighten with exercise or stay flabby?
weight loss cardiff answers:
The thing with a large weight loss is that the weight is generally lost too fast, which doesn’t give the skin enough time to go back to what it was.
After reaching your target weight, I would wait a few months, doing regular light exercise and eating healthily, and then see how your skin is. If you are still unhappy you could look into plastic surgery.
Try this website though, it has some advice about excess skin after weight loss, and non surgical methods. Http://www.bodyfatguide.com/LooseSkin.htm
Good luck. X

What is the best weight loss supplement?
I want a weight loss supplement that doesn’t make me so called ‘ill’, i.e. making me poo a lot if you know what I mean. Something that genuinely aids me when I go to the gym to burn more calories etc. And hopefully something that is natural too. Please give me some personal experiences too?
weight loss cardiff answers:
The best supplements for weight loss and specifically fat loss are thermogenics. I have had the most sucess with anything containing caffeine and green tea extract.
Another thing I can suggest that works (this sounds crazy but it does I swear) is cold showers or more effectively Ice baths after a workout.
Ice baths provide a quick recovery and they stimulate fat burning, but they are not recommended if you have a heart condition the initial shock is pretty wicked.
