Ever feel hungry, only to realize you were actually just thirsty? Your brain's not the sharpest when it comes to distinguishing between hunger and dehydration—and this confusion might be sabotaging your weight loss efforts without you even realizing it.
In this straight-talking episode, we're cutting through the hydration hype to reveal why water matters for weight loss—not because it magically burns fat, but because it supports your body's natural processes in profound ways. Forget the influencers with their gallon jugs and motivational timestamps. We're getting real about what actually works.
Water isn't just about avoiding dehydration; it's about controlling false hunger signals, supporting digestion, maintaining metabolism, and keeping energy levels steady throughout the day. When you're properly hydrated, you naturally eat less, move more, and feel better—all without the need for complicated tracking or drinking until you're chained to the bathroom.
I'm sharing three dead-simple hydration hacks that you can implement immediately: strategic timing (starting your day with water before coffee), mindful consumption (sipping before meals rather than during), and making water enjoyable without artificial additives. These small, stackable habits work because they fit into your existing routine instead of forcing you to overhaul your entire life.
The most powerful approach to hydration isn't about perfection but consistency. You don't need to guzzle a gallon daily or turn water-drinking into your personality. You just need to stop forgetting to drink altogether. By anchoring water consumption to habits you already have—like checking email, finishing a task, or watching Netflix—you'll build sustainable hydration habits that stick long after the latest water bottle trend has faded.
Ready to transform your relationship with water? Start with these simple challenges: drink 12 ounces first thing tomorrow morning, sip intentionally before each meal, and find ways to make hydration a habit you don't even think about. Your energy, appetite control, and weight loss results will thank you.

Your host, jonathan Ressler.
Speaker 2 (01:14):
Hey, welcome back to Shut Up and Choose the podcast
where we cut the noise, thenonsense and all the other
bullshit that the internet gurus, instagram gods are telling you
on how to lose weight, all theconflicting information out
there.
I'm just here to tell you howeasy it is and show you how you
can get it done without a lot ofeffort.
So, before I get started today,I just want to say, for those
(01:35):
of you that follow me every weekhopefully that's many of you I
did take last week off because,unfortunately, my mother died
and I just honestly wasn't inthe mood.
She was 89 years old.
She was an incredible woman.
She had Alzheimer's anddementia and, to be perfectly
honest, I think it's somewhat ofa relief that she finally has
(01:56):
some peace.
So I want to say, before I goany further mom, I love you,
edie Ressler, you're a greatperson and you will be missed,
but I'm happy you're finally atpeace.
So, having said all that, letme move on to the episode.
This episode is about somethingthat's been blown way out of
(02:18):
proportion, and that's water.
You have water that basic,clear, tasteful stuff that every
fitness guru and TikTok healthcoach is yelling at you to drown
yourself in.
You need to drink a gallon aday, or carry this massive
half-gallon jug withmotivational timestamps, or, if
your pee isn't clear, you'rebasically dying.
(02:39):
All I can say to that is shutthe fuck up.
You don't need to guzzle agallon of water a day to lose
weight.
This isn't some magical fluidthat melts fat like acid in a
sci-fi movie.
And you don't need a Stanleycup big enough to bathe your dog
in just to stay healthy.
Look, unless you're out in thedesert or training like an
(02:59):
Olympian, this whole waterobsession is just another
overcomplication by the dietindustry.
Or worse, influencers just wantlikes for their aesthetic
fucking water bottles.
Hydration is not about beingperfect.
That might sound familiar toyou, just like the whole losing
weight thing.
It's not about being perfect,but it is about being consistent
(03:19):
.
It's about building a simplehabit that supports fat loss,
energy and a clear mind, withoutturning into a fucking human
fountain who's sprinting to thebathroom every 15 minutes.
So in today's episode, we'regoing to strip away the bullshit
and give it to you straight.
I'm going to break down exactlywhy water matters when you're
trying to drop pounds.
Not because it burns fatdirectly, but because staying
(03:43):
hydrated helps your bodyactually function the way it's
supposed to.
We're talking about appetitecontrol, digestion, metabolism,
energy stuff that helps you stayin control and not raid the
pantry like a fucking animal atmidnight.
But don't worry, I'm not goingto hand you another like one of
those stupid hydrationchallenges, or suggest that you
(04:06):
install a hydration tracking appthat sends you passive,
aggressive reminders.
Now I've got three hydrationhacks that are super simple,
actually doable and don'tinvolve carrying around a tank
of water like you're trekkingacross the fucking Sahara Desert
.
By the end of today, you'llhave real, stackable hydration
habits.
You can start today.
(04:27):
That's the whole point of ShutUp and Choose.
No fluff, no gimmicks, nobullshit, just small changes
that stack up to massive wins.
So if you've ever felt likedrinking enough water is just
another thing that you'refucking up, relax, I got you
here.
We're not aiming for perfection.
We're aiming for a betterbaseline and I promise by the
(04:48):
end of the episode, you'll neverlook at your water bottle the
same way again.
So let's cut through the noiseand talk about why water
actually matters.
Not the internet myth,overblown woo, woo, nonsense,
bullshit but the real, honest,science-backed reason why
sipping water should actually bepart of your fat burning game
(05:10):
plan.
Water is not magical.
It's metabolic.
There's no fairy dust in it.
It's not going to torch bellyfat while you sit on the couch
watching netflix and munching oncookies.
But what it does do is way moreimportant.
It keeps your body's internalengine running the way it's
supposed to, and when yourengine is running smoothly,
(05:32):
weight loss gets a whole loteasier.
The first thing that I want totalk about are false hunger
signals.
You ever feel hungry, wander inthe kitchen, start tearing into
a bag of chips, only to realizelike 10 minutes later you
weren't really hungry at all,you were just thirsty.
Yeah, your brain's not alwaysthe sharpest when it comes to
knowing the difference betweenhunger and dehydration.
(05:55):
And if you're walking aroundall day on empty, barely sipping
water, guess what your bodydoes?
It sends out hunger flares.
Feed me.
It screams like Seymour in thatmovie Feed me.
What it actually needs is afucking glass of water.
So half the time when you'reraiding the fridge or eating
that junk, it's not because yourbody needs fuel, it's because
(06:18):
your hydration game is dog shit.
Drink more water and watch howoften those I need a snack urges
completely disappear.
The second thing is digestionand metabolism.
You can eat all the protein andveggies in the world, but if
your digestion is slow andbacked up like a line at the
fucking DMV, good luck losingfat.
(06:40):
Water is what keeps thingsmoving, literally.
It helps break down food,absorb nutrients and keep your
system clean.
You want to avoid bloating,constipation, feeling like you
swallowed a brick.
Drink some more water.
And then there's yourmetabolism.
Staying hydrated helps maintainyour resting energy expenditure
.
Let me give you the translationon that, because that really
(07:02):
sounded crazy.
It keeps your calorie burningengine idling at a higher rate.
Studies show that just drinkinga glass of cold water can give
your metabolism a little bumpbecause your body has to work
hard to warm it up.
It's not a miracle, but it addsup and every little edge helps.
And then the third thing andthis is a big one is energy.
Ever feel tired, foggy,sluggish, like your motivation
(07:28):
just is not there?
Nine times out of 10, you'renot really tired, you're
dehydrated.
Water is your body's naturalenergy drink.
When you're low on it,everything drags your brain,
your body, your mood.
And when you're dragging, whatdo you reach for?
Sugar, caffeine, snacks,anything to perk yourself up a
(07:50):
little bit.
It's a vicious cycle.
But when you're hydrated, youactually move more, you think
more clearly, you don't feellike you need a nap every
afternoon.
Guess what?
Moving more and snacking lessleads to yep, weight loss.
Look, I'm not saying water isgoing to solve all your problems
.
You can't out drink a shittydiet or a sedentary lifestyle,
but if you're not even hittingthe hydration basics, you're
(08:13):
making the fat loss game wayharder than it needs to be.
And you're not lazy, you'rejust running your system on
empty.
So let me give you like a quickvisual here.
If your piss looks likeMountain Dew, you got a problem.
I don't care how much you lovethe young colors, that is not a
good sign.
You want pale, yellow, maybechampagne-y color.
(08:37):
If it looks like a yellowcrayon that melted in your
toilet, you're way behind.
Now here's the part that no onetells you.
This doesn't mean you need tostart drowning yourself in water
all day.
You don't need to be sippinglike a psycho 24-7.
You just need to get smartabout it Timing, intention and
ritual.
That's where the real magichappens.
(08:58):
Not in volume, but inconsistency.
So stop overthinking it.
You don't need a new waterbottle.
You don't need reminders onyour phone every 15 minutes.
What you do need is tounderstand.
This simple, boring habit isone of the most powerful tools
you've got, and you're probablyignoring it.
I know I was.
You want to feel more incontrol of your eating.
(09:19):
Drink some water.
You want to move more, withoutdragging yourself through a
workout if you're into that kindof thing Drink some water.
You want to stop feeling likeshit halfway through the day.
You already know what I'm goingto say.
You're not bad at drinkingwater.
You've just been distracted byall the noise.
So let's clean it up and makeit simple.
All right.
(09:41):
Now that we've established whywater actually matters, let's
address the ridiculous elephantin the room, the 100-ounce
madness.
You know what I'm talking aboutthis idea that if you're not
guzzling a gallon of water a day, you're doing it wrong.
Let me be blunt, as if I couldbe more blunt, but more is not
always better.
This is not a competitive sport.
(10:03):
You don't get a gold medal forpissing every 10 minutes and yet
somehow, along the way,drinking water turned into like
a weird flex, like look at meand my 128-ounce water jug.
I'm a fitness god.
No, you're basically a portabletoilet waiting to happen.
So let's get real for a second,unless you're an elite athlete
(10:23):
working outside in the heat orliving in a sauna, you don't
need to drink a gallon a day.
What you do need is to stopforgetting To drink altogether.
That's the real problem.
Not that you're under somemagical ounce count.
Most people aren't underhydrated Because they're too
lazy.
They're under hydrated becausethey're too distracted.
(10:44):
We're busy, we forget, we skipit.
Then we end up feeling likeshit and wonder why we're so
snacky and foggy and tired oreven bloated.
So no, chad, you don't need ahydration spreadsheet or an
Excel tracker with conditionalformatting that glows green
every time you hit 20 ounces.
What you need is a fuckinghabit, one that sticks, one that
(11:06):
fits into your day withoutturning your life into a
hydration obstacle course.
Because here's the ironyturning your life into a
hydration obstacle course.
Because here's the irony Halfthe people chugging a gallon of
water are so overcompensatingfor other shit like a junk diet.
Just drink more water, you don'tsleep.
Drink some more water, you'rehungover, and we all know this
one.
Drink more water and, yeah,water helps, but it's not a
(11:32):
band-aid for a broken system.
If your lifestyle is out ofcontrol, you don't need more
ounces, you need better habits.
Let's also talk about thebacklash from this gallon-a-day
bullshit.
People go from not drinking anywater to suddenly forcing 120
ounces and then quitting threedays later because they're
bloated, they're annoyed,honestly, chained to a bathroom
salt.
That's not sustainable, that'snot helpful.
(11:53):
That's not helpful, that's justperformative nonsense.
Hydration is not about volume.
It's about timing, consistencyand listening to your body.
If you're constantly thirsty,dry mouth, foggy brain, your pee
looks like I don't know.
Like I said, mountain Dew, yeah, you probably need to drink
(12:13):
more water.
But if you're pounding water,still feeling off, guess what?
That's not hydration, it'sovercorrection, and
overcorrection leads to burnout.
So here's a better approach Aimfor steady sips, not like the
shotgun chugs.
Don't wait until you're dying ofthirst.
Don't try to crush 40 ounces ofwater in one sitting because
(12:34):
you forgot all day.
Just build in small sipsthroughout your routine, that's
it.
No calculating required, noone's handing out trophies for
fucking water volume.
Your job is just to stayconsistent and not obsessed.
You want to know the besthydration strategy.
Don't be stupid.
Be steady, that's it.
Drink when you wake up, sipwith meals.
Don't be stupid.
Be steady, that's it.
Drink when you wake up, sipwith meals.
(12:56):
Keep a bottle nearby so it'seasy and not annoying.
If your body's sending yousigns that it's low on water,
like headaches, cravings, lowenergy then adjust.
But don't let some randominfluencer douchebag with a jug
the size of a bowling pin toshame you into overdrinking.
Just so we're clear, right?
(13:17):
This podcast, this is what it'sall about.
Real, doable change.
Stackable habits, things you'llactually keep doing three
months from now, and obsessivelytracking your water intake like
a stock portfolio is not one ofthose things.
So ditch the gallon challenge.
Throw out the spreadsheet.
Stop feeling like a stockportfolio is not one of those
things.
So ditch the gallon challenge.
Throw out the spreadsheet.
Stop feeling like a failurebecause you didn't hit your 100
(13:38):
ounces.
Instead, just pick one simplehydration, anchor a moment in
your day that's actuallyhappening, that's already
happening, and layer water ontoit.
That's the trick.
That's how it sticks.
Because what's better Thinkabout it Forcing yourself to
chug 100 ounces for five daysand then quitting forever, or
sipping 60 ounces every day forthe rest of your life without
(13:58):
even thinking about it.
Hopefully you got the rightanswer there.
It's not a quiz, but hopefullyyou got the right answer.
So I'm going to give you threedead simple hydration hacks.
You can start today nomeasuring, no stress, no
pretending you love the taste ofplain water when you don't.
These hacks are going to makewater part of your routine
without making it your wholepersonality.
(14:19):
All right, so look, we've tornapart the myths, we've ditched
the hopefully.
You ditched the gallon jug andset the record straight on why
hydration actually matters.
Now let's talk solutions realones.
No gimmicks, no bullshit, nospreadsheet, no weird pyramid
schemes that try to sell youalkaline, moon-based,
fat-melting glacier water.
(14:40):
I'm talking about hydrationhacks that actually stick Simple
, smart, stackable habits thatwork with your life, not against
it.
That's what I'm all about.
It's got to work with your life.
So let's start with the firstand probably most underrated
trick in the book, which istiming.
Timing is everything.
If you only take one thing awayfrom this episode, let it be
(15:02):
this Start your day with water,not coffee.
I know that's going to hurtsome of you.
I know coffee is your ride ordie.
I get that.
You can't speak human until thefirst cup, but your body's been
on a fast for seven or eighthours, maybe more.
After you sleep, you'rebasically a shriveled raisin
when you wake up and the firstthing you do is hit it hard with
(15:23):
caffeine and cream Doesn't makesense.
That's like throwing gasolineon a dry sponge or something.
I don't know if that's a reallygood analogy, but it just came
out.
So here's the hack anyway 12ounces of water before anything
else.
Before you touch your phone,before you start whining that
(15:44):
it's Monday, before you evenlook at the coffee pot, you wake
up and boom, just drink a glassof water.
It'll wake up your organs,it'll fire up your metabolism
and shock your body intofunctioning like a human again.
All right, the next trick sipbefore meals, not during.
And I'm not saying you have toban water from dinner, like some
person you're trying to avoid,but there's something magical
about drinking water 15 to 20minutes before you eat.
(16:04):
It fills your stomach justenough to take the edge off, so
you're not eating like a wildanimal when it comes time to
have dinner, lunch, whatevermeal you're eating.
Plus, it gets your digestivesystem ready to go, like
stretching before a workout.
It's a win-win.
Now here's the one that everyonethinks will fix their hydration
(16:26):
issues, which is flavor.
Let me be clear If you hateplain water, that doesn't make
you weak, it makes you human.
But don't go running the storefor some fake skinny water,
detox fairy juice filled withartificial sweeteners, neon
colors and promises of six-packabs.
That's bullshit.
(16:46):
That doesn't exist.
That's diet entry snake oil ina plastic bottle.
So instead, upgrade your waterwith real stuff.
Right, it's easy.
Throw in some citrus, lemon,lime, orange slices.
If you want something maybe alittle bit more savory,
different, add some mint,cucumbers, even some frozen
berries, blackberries, whateveryou like.
(17:07):
You can even throw in a pinchof sea salt if you're feeling
fancy and you want to help withyour electrolyte balance.
It doesn't need to taste like aspa day in Tuscany, it just
needs to make you want to drinkit.
This whole thing is about habitbuilding, not torture.
Make it appealing, make itrefreshing, make it something
you actually look forward tosipping, not just another chore
(17:28):
on your never-ending healthchecklist.
And now here's where the kindof real game changer comes in
Anchor it to a habit.
We talked about stackablehabits.
I talk about them all the time,but if you want hydration to
become second nature, you needto tie it to something you're
already doing.
That's how habits are born, notfrom willpower, but from
(17:52):
routine.
So anchor your water habit tosomething you already do without
thinking.
Start with that bottle or glassnext to your bed.
Set it up the night before Wakeup, reach over, drink, boom,
your first win of the day.
Then you can put a bottle onyour desk.
New rule every email you readequals one sip.
I don't know, that's not everyemail you send, just read.
(18:14):
But let the water be thebackground music to your
productivity.
Next, set sip triggers Everytime you finish a workout.
If you're into that kind ofthing, water Most of you
probably do that anyway.
When you sit down for a meal,drink some water.
Press play on your next Netflixepisode water.
You want these habits so bakedinto your routine that your
(18:35):
brain doesn't even need toremind you.
It just doesn't.
And that's where the magichappens, people when hydration
stops being something you thinkabout and starts becoming
something you just do.
It's a behavior loop C rewardyou anchor it, you repeat it and
(18:55):
boom, it sticks.
That's how you win thehydration game without turning
into a human fountain or needinglike some fucking water tank
strapped to your hip.
So that's it.
Three hacks, zero excuses.
One start your day hydrated tomake water taste good, without
drinking all these crazychemicals.
And number three is buildrituals around your life, not in
(19:19):
spite of it.
And if you're still thinking,but I'll forget, good, that
means you're normal.
But now you've got tools tochange it, because you don't
need to be perfect, you justneed to be better than yesterday
, all right.
So look, I've already brokendown the myths.
I've cut through a lot of theshit.
You now understand whyhydration actually matters, and
you've got three simple, nobullshit hacks to make it happen
(19:41):
.
So now it's time to stop justknowing and start doing.
So welcome to your challenge.
You know I'm totally againstchallenge, but here's your
challenge.
I'm not asking you to overhaulyour life.
This isn't drink 120 ounces ofreport pack.
This isn't some Instagramhydration challenge where you
post selfies with your waterbottle and a motivational quote.
You're not here for that.
(20:02):
That's not what I do.
You're here for results, andresults start with action Small,
boring, repeatable action.
So here's what I want you to doTomorrow morning before you do
anything else, before your phone, before your coffee, before you
even think about breakfast, Iwant you to drink 12 ounces of
water.
That's it.
One simple move, no excuses.
(20:23):
If you got time to scrollTikTok in bed, you got time to
slam a glass of water.
You're not doing it becauseit's trendy.
You're doing it because itwakes up your body.
It kickstarts your metabolism,tells your brain, hey, we're
alive, let's get going.
And yeah, it also sets the tonefor the rest of the day,
because when your first move isa win, it's a whole lot easier
(20:43):
to stack a few more.
Then, after that, here's yournext mission Sip water with
intention before every meal.
I'm not talking about sippingwhile you eat or chugging a
gallon while standing at thestove.
I mean just pause, grab yourwater and take a few solid gulps
before you dig in.
It gives your stomach a headstart, it tells your body the
food's coming and it helps youto avoid the whole oops, I ate
(21:06):
like I was being timed.
That's the kind of habit thatslips in quietly and sticks hard
.
You'll find yourself naturallyeating less, feeling more full
and skipping the post-meal bloat, all from a few sips.
That's what I call a power move.
And if you're rolling your eyesright now, thinking it can't be
that simple, guess what it is,but only if you actually do it,
(21:30):
not once, not for a day, everyday until it becomes automatic.
Here, say it with me out loudif you're not in public, or you
know in your head if you'remaking believe you're working
while you listen to this.
Hydration is not punishment,it's fuel.
Say it again Hydration is notpunishment for overeating.
(21:50):
It's not some atonement forskipping your workout.
It's not what you do to earnyour next snack.
It's your fuel.
You need it to function, youneed it to focus, you need it to
feel human.
So stop acting like it's achore and start treating it like
it's your secret weapon,because it is.
And let me hit you with one moretruth bomb before we close this
(22:11):
out.
It's not about being perfect.
It's about building a habit.
You don't even notice.
I say that all the time, butyou're not here to be a
hydration saint.
You're here to build a habitthat's so second nature you
don't even think about it.
Like brushing your teeth or atleast I hope you do that.
It's like locking the door.
It's like swearing under yourbreath when some asshole cuts
(22:34):
you off in traffic.
That's how real change happens.
That's how real change happensNot in the dramatic before and
after photos, but in the boring,quiet, consistent moves that
you make every single day.
Drinking water sorry, it's notsexy, but it's effective as hell
.
And, the best part, you'realready capable of doing it.
So again, here's what I wantfrom you today Wake up, drink a
(22:57):
glass of water 12 ounces Beforeevery meal, take a few
intentional sips and three buildthe habit.
Don't think, just do.
No drama, right?
No overthinking, no gallon jugwith fucking inspirational
quotes in it, just you, a glassand the decision to show up for
yourself in the smallest waypossible and keep doing it.
(23:19):
This is Shut Up and Choose, andthat was your hydration wake-up
call.
So here it is.
We cut through the hype, weslapped the gallon chugging
bullshit in the face and I laiddown some real, doable
strategies to actually makewater work for you.
So let's recap, becauserepetition builds results.
(23:39):
One water isn't magic, it'smetabolic.
It curbs cravings, fuels yourbody, keeps digestion smooth and
helps you feel less like afoggy snack-seeking animal.
You don't need a hydrationspreadsheet or 128-ounce jug
with timestamps and guilt trips.
You just need a habit andbuilding that habit.
Timestamps and guilt trips, youjust need a habit and building
that habit.
(24:00):
It's stupid simple.
Start the day with 12 ouncesbefore anything else, sip with
intention before meals and makewater taste good without
drinking something that soundslike it belongs in a crystal
shop, oh yeah, and tie yoursipping to everyday moments
Emails, workouts, netflix,whatever keeps you consistent.
(24:20):
We all know this.
But I'm not here to babysit you.
I'm not going to check if yourpiss looks like champagne or
Mountain Dew.
That's on you.
But if you actually do thechallenge I gave you wake up,
drink water, sip before mealsyou'll start to feel a shift
More energy, more control, lessbloat, fewer cravings.
It really adds up.
(24:40):
And again, I say this all thetime you don't need to be
perfect, you just need to beconsistent.
You don't need to drink like abodybuilder, you just need to
stop forgetting.
So this is what Shut Up andChoose is all about Small
choices that stack into bigresults, and it starts with the
next glass of water you drink.
(25:00):
So stop scrolling, stopoverthinking and go fill your
fucking glass and hydrate like aboss.
That should get you through it.
Those are simple things.
It's the reality of drinkingwater and it's not hard, and
it's something that you can do.
No matter what your physicalcondition, no matter where you
(25:21):

Let's do this Now.
Your host, jonathan Ressler.
Speaker 2 (01:14):
Hey, welcome back to Shut Up and Choose the podcast
where we cut the noise, thenonsense and all the other
bullshit that the internet gurus, instagram gods are telling you
on how to lose weight, all theconflicting information out
there.
I'm just here to tell you howeasy it is and show you how you
can get it done without a lot ofeffort.
So, before I get started today,I just want to say, for those
(01:35):
of you that follow me every weekhopefully that's many of you I
did take last week off because,unfortunately, my mother died
and I just honestly wasn't inthe mood.
She was 89 years old.
She was an incredible woman.
She had Alzheimer's anddementia and, to be perfectly
honest, I think it's somewhat ofa relief that she finally has
(01:56):
some peace.
So I want to say, before I goany further mom, I love you,
edie Ressler, you're a greatperson and you will be missed,
but I'm happy you're finally atpeace.
So, having said all that, letme move on to the episode.
This episode is about somethingthat's been blown way out of
(02:18):
proportion, and that's water.
You have water that basic,clear, tasteful stuff that every
fitness guru and TikTok healthcoach is yelling at you to drown
yourself in.
You need to drink a gallon aday, or carry this massive
half-gallon jug withmotivational timestamps, or, if
your pee isn't clear, you'rebasically dying.
(02:39):
All I can say to that is shutthe fuck up.
You don't need to guzzle agallon of water a day to lose
weight.
This isn't some magical fluidthat melts fat like acid in a
sci-fi movie.
And you don't need a Stanleycup big enough to bathe your dog
in just to stay healthy.
Look, unless you're out in thedesert or training like an
(02:59):
Olympian, this whole waterobsession is just another
overcomplication by the dietindustry.
Or worse, influencers just wantlikes for their aesthetic
fucking water bottles.
Hydration is not about beingperfect.
That might sound familiar toyou, just like the whole losing
weight thing.
It's not about being perfect,but it is about being consistent
(03:19):
.
It's about building a simplehabit that supports fat loss,
energy and a clear mind, withoutturning into a fucking human
fountain who's sprinting to thebathroom every 15 minutes.
So in today's episode, we'regoing to strip away the bullshit
and give it to you straight.
I'm going to break down exactlywhy water matters when you're
trying to drop pounds.
Not because it burns fatdirectly, but because staying
(03:43):
hydrated helps your bodyactually function the way it's
supposed to.
We're talking about appetitecontrol, digestion, metabolism,
energy stuff that helps you stayin control and not raid the
pantry like a fucking animal atmidnight.
But don't worry, I'm not goingto hand you another like one of
those stupid hydrationchallenges, or suggest that you
(04:06):
install a hydration tracking appthat sends you passive,
aggressive reminders.
Now I've got three hydrationhacks that are super simple,
actually doable and don'tinvolve carrying around a tank
of water like you're trekkingacross the fucking Sahara Desert
.
By the end of today, you'llhave real, stackable hydration
habits.
You can start today.
(04:27):
That's the whole point of ShutUp and Choose.
No fluff, no gimmicks, nobullshit, just small changes
that stack up to massive wins.
So if you've ever felt likedrinking enough water is just
another thing that you'refucking up, relax, I got you
here.
We're not aiming for perfection.
We're aiming for a betterbaseline and I promise by the
(04:48):
end of the episode, you'll neverlook at your water bottle the
same way again.
So let's cut through the noiseand talk about why water
actually matters.
Not the internet myth,overblown woo, woo, nonsense,
bullshit but the real, honest,science-backed reason why
sipping water should actually bepart of your fat burning game
(05:10):
plan.
Water is not magical.
It's metabolic.
There's no fairy dust in it.
It's not going to torch bellyfat while you sit on the couch
watching netflix and munching oncookies.
But what it does do is way moreimportant.
It keeps your body's internalengine running the way it's
supposed to, and when yourengine is running smoothly,
(05:32):
weight loss gets a whole loteasier.
The first thing that I want totalk about are false hunger
signals.
You ever feel hungry, wander inthe kitchen, start tearing into
a bag of chips, only to realizelike 10 minutes later you
weren't really hungry at all,you were just thirsty.
Yeah, your brain's not alwaysthe sharpest when it comes to
knowing the difference betweenhunger and dehydration.
(05:55):
And if you're walking aroundall day on empty, barely sipping
water, guess what your bodydoes?
It sends out hunger flares.
Feed me.
It screams like Seymour in thatmovie Feed me.
What it actually needs is afucking glass of water.
So half the time when you'reraiding the fridge or eating
that junk, it's not because yourbody needs fuel, it's because
(06:18):
your hydration game is dog shit.
Drink more water and watch howoften those I need a snack urges
completely disappear.
The second thing is digestionand metabolism.
You can eat all the protein andveggies in the world, but if
your digestion is slow andbacked up like a line at the
fucking DMV, good luck losingfat.
(06:40):
Water is what keeps thingsmoving, literally.
It helps break down food,absorb nutrients and keep your
system clean.
You want to avoid bloating,constipation, feeling like you
swallowed a brick.
Drink some more water.
And then there's yourmetabolism.
Staying hydrated helps maintainyour resting energy expenditure
.
Let me give you the translationon that, because that really
(07:02):
sounded crazy.
It keeps your calorie burningengine idling at a higher rate.
Studies show that just drinkinga glass of cold water can give
your metabolism a little bumpbecause your body has to work
hard to warm it up.
It's not a miracle, but it addsup and every little edge helps.
And then the third thing andthis is a big one is energy.
Ever feel tired, foggy,sluggish, like your motivation
(07:28):
just is not there?
Nine times out of 10, you'renot really tired, you're
dehydrated.
Water is your body's naturalenergy drink.
When you're low on it,everything drags your brain,
your body, your mood.
And when you're dragging, whatdo you reach for?
Sugar, caffeine, snacks,anything to perk yourself up a
(07:50):
little bit.
It's a vicious cycle.
But when you're hydrated, youactually move more, you think
more clearly, you don't feellike you need a nap every
afternoon.
Guess what?
Moving more and snacking lessleads to yep, weight loss.
Look, I'm not saying water isgoing to solve all your problems
.
You can't out drink a shittydiet or a sedentary lifestyle,
but if you're not even hittingthe hydration basics, you're
(08:13):
making the fat loss game wayharder than it needs to be.
And you're not lazy, you'rejust running your system on
empty.
So let me give you like a quickvisual here.
If your piss looks likeMountain Dew, you got a problem.
I don't care how much you lovethe young colors, that is not a
good sign.
You want pale, yellow, maybechampagne-y color.
(08:37):
If it looks like a yellowcrayon that melted in your
toilet, you're way behind.
Now here's the part that no onetells you.
This doesn't mean you need tostart drowning yourself in water
all day.
You don't need to be sippinglike a psycho 24-7.
You just need to get smartabout it Timing, intention and
ritual.
That's where the real magichappens.
(08:58):
Not in volume, but inconsistency.
So stop overthinking it.
You don't need a new waterbottle.
You don't need reminders onyour phone every 15 minutes.
What you do need is tounderstand.
This simple, boring habit isone of the most powerful tools
you've got, and you're probablyignoring it.
I know I was.
You want to feel more incontrol of your eating.
(09:19):
Drink some water.
You want to move more, withoutdragging yourself through a
workout if you're into that kindof thing Drink some water.
You want to stop feeling likeshit halfway through the day.
You already know what I'm goingto say.
You're not bad at drinkingwater.
You've just been distracted byall the noise.
So let's clean it up and makeit simple.
All right.
(09:41):
Now that we've established whywater actually matters, let's
address the ridiculous elephantin the room, the 100-ounce
madness.
You know what I'm talking aboutthis idea that if you're not
guzzling a gallon of water a day, you're doing it wrong.
Let me be blunt, as if I couldbe more blunt, but more is not
always better.
This is not a competitive sport.
(10:03):
You don't get a gold medal forpissing every 10 minutes and yet
somehow, along the way,drinking water turned into like
a weird flex, like look at meand my 128-ounce water jug.
I'm a fitness god.
No, you're basically a portabletoilet waiting to happen.
So let's get real for a second,unless you're an elite athlete
(10:23):
working outside in the heat orliving in a sauna, you don't
need to drink a gallon a day.
What you do need is to stopforgetting To drink altogether.
That's the real problem.
Not that you're under somemagical ounce count.
Most people aren't underhydrated Because they're too
lazy.
They're under hydrated becausethey're too distracted.
(10:44):
We're busy, we forget, we skipit.
Then we end up feeling likeshit and wonder why we're so
snacky and foggy and tired oreven bloated.
So no, chad, you don't need ahydration spreadsheet or an
Excel tracker with conditionalformatting that glows green
every time you hit 20 ounces.
What you need is a fuckinghabit, one that sticks, one that
(11:06):
fits into your day withoutturning your life into a
hydration obstacle course.
Because here's the ironyturning your life into a
hydration obstacle course.
Because here's the irony Halfthe people chugging a gallon of
water are so overcompensatingfor other shit like a junk diet.
Just drink more water, you don'tsleep.
Drink some more water, you'rehungover, and we all know this
one.
Drink more water and, yeah,water helps, but it's not a
(11:32):
band-aid for a broken system.
If your lifestyle is out ofcontrol, you don't need more
ounces, you need better habits.
Let's also talk about thebacklash from this gallon-a-day
bullshit.
People go from not drinking anywater to suddenly forcing 120
ounces and then quitting threedays later because they're
bloated, they're annoyed,honestly, chained to a bathroom
salt.
That's not sustainable, that'snot helpful.
(11:53):
That's not helpful, that's justperformative nonsense.
Hydration is not about volume.
It's about timing, consistencyand listening to your body.
If you're constantly thirsty,dry mouth, foggy brain, your pee
looks like I don't know.
Like I said, mountain Dew, yeah, you probably need to drink
(12:13):
more water.
But if you're pounding water,still feeling off, guess what?
That's not hydration, it'sovercorrection, and
overcorrection leads to burnout.
So here's a better approach Aimfor steady sips, not like the
shotgun chugs.
Don't wait until you're dying ofthirst.
Don't try to crush 40 ounces ofwater in one sitting because
(12:34):
you forgot all day.
Just build in small sipsthroughout your routine, that's
it.
No calculating required, noone's handing out trophies for
fucking water volume.
Your job is just to stayconsistent and not obsessed.
You want to know the besthydration strategy.
Don't be stupid.
Be steady, that's it.
Drink when you wake up, sipwith meals.
Don't be stupid.
Be steady, that's it.
Drink when you wake up, sipwith meals.
(12:56):
Keep a bottle nearby so it'seasy and not annoying.
If your body's sending yousigns that it's low on water,
like headaches, cravings, lowenergy then adjust.
But don't let some randominfluencer douchebag with a jug
the size of a bowling pin toshame you into overdrinking.
Just so we're clear, right?
(13:17):
This podcast, this is what it'sall about.
Real, doable change.
Stackable habits, things you'llactually keep doing three
months from now, and obsessivelytracking your water intake like
a stock portfolio is not one ofthose things.
So ditch the gallon challenge.
Throw out the spreadsheet.
Stop feeling like a stockportfolio is not one of those
things.
So ditch the gallon challenge.
Throw out the spreadsheet.
Stop feeling like a failurebecause you didn't hit your 100
(13:38):
ounces.
Instead, just pick one simplehydration, anchor a moment in
your day that's actuallyhappening, that's already
happening, and layer water ontoit.
That's the trick.
That's how it sticks.
Because what's better Thinkabout it Forcing yourself to
chug 100 ounces for five daysand then quitting forever, or
sipping 60 ounces every day forthe rest of your life without
(13:58):
even thinking about it.
Hopefully you got the rightanswer there.
It's not a quiz, but hopefullyyou got the right answer.
So I'm going to give you threedead simple hydration hacks.
You can start today nomeasuring, no stress, no
pretending you love the taste ofplain water when you don't.
These hacks are going to makewater part of your routine
without making it your wholepersonality.
(14:19):
All right, so look, we've tornapart the myths, we've ditched
the hopefully.
You ditched the gallon jug andset the record straight on why
hydration actually matters.
Now let's talk solutions realones.
No gimmicks, no bullshit, nospreadsheet, no weird pyramid
schemes that try to sell youalkaline, moon-based,
fat-melting glacier water.
(14:40):
I'm talking about hydrationhacks that actually stick Simple
, smart, stackable habits thatwork with your life, not against
it.
That's what I'm all about.
It's got to work with your life.
So let's start with the firstand probably most underrated
trick in the book, which istiming.
Timing is everything.
If you only take one thing awayfrom this episode, let it be
(15:02):
this Start your day with water,not coffee.
I know that's going to hurtsome of you.
I know coffee is your ride ordie.
I get that.
You can't speak human until thefirst cup, but your body's been
on a fast for seven or eighthours, maybe more.
After you sleep, you'rebasically a shriveled raisin
when you wake up and the firstthing you do is hit it hard with
(15:23):
caffeine and cream Doesn't makesense.
That's like throwing gasolineon a dry sponge or something.
I don't know if that's a reallygood analogy, but it just came
out.
So here's the hack anyway 12ounces of water before anything
else.
Before you touch your phone,before you start whining that
(15:44):
it's Monday, before you evenlook at the coffee pot, you wake
up and boom, just drink a glassof water.
It'll wake up your organs,it'll fire up your metabolism
and shock your body intofunctioning like a human again.
All right, the next trick sipbefore meals, not during.
And I'm not saying you have toban water from dinner, like some
person you're trying to avoid,but there's something magical
about drinking water 15 to 20minutes before you eat.
(16:04):
It fills your stomach justenough to take the edge off, so
you're not eating like a wildanimal when it comes time to
have dinner, lunch, whatevermeal you're eating.
Plus, it gets your digestivesystem ready to go, like
stretching before a workout.
It's a win-win.
Now here's the one that everyonethinks will fix their hydration
(16:26):
issues, which is flavor.
Let me be clear If you hateplain water, that doesn't make
you weak, it makes you human.
But don't go running the storefor some fake skinny water,
detox fairy juice filled withartificial sweeteners, neon
colors and promises of six-packabs.
That's bullshit.
(16:46):
That doesn't exist.
That's diet entry snake oil ina plastic bottle.
So instead, upgrade your waterwith real stuff.
Right, it's easy.
Throw in some citrus, lemon,lime, orange slices.
If you want something maybe alittle bit more savory,
different, add some mint,cucumbers, even some frozen
berries, blackberries, whateveryou like.
(17:07):
You can even throw in a pinchof sea salt if you're feeling
fancy and you want to help withyour electrolyte balance.
It doesn't need to taste like aspa day in Tuscany, it just
needs to make you want to drinkit.
This whole thing is about habitbuilding, not torture.
Make it appealing, make itrefreshing, make it something
you actually look forward tosipping, not just another chore
(17:28):
on your never-ending healthchecklist.
And now here's where the kindof real game changer comes in
Anchor it to a habit.
We talked about stackablehabits.
I talk about them all the time,but if you want hydration to
become second nature, you needto tie it to something you're
already doing.
That's how habits are born, notfrom willpower, but from
(17:52):
routine.
So anchor your water habit tosomething you already do without
thinking.
Start with that bottle or glassnext to your bed.
Set it up the night before Wakeup, reach over, drink, boom,
your first win of the day.
Then you can put a bottle onyour desk.
New rule every email you readequals one sip.
I don't know, that's not everyemail you send, just read.
(18:14):
But let the water be thebackground music to your
productivity.
Next, set sip triggers Everytime you finish a workout.
If you're into that kind ofthing, water Most of you
probably do that anyway.
When you sit down for a meal,drink some water.
Press play on your next Netflixepisode water.
You want these habits so bakedinto your routine that your
(18:35):
brain doesn't even need toremind you.
It just doesn't.
And that's where the magichappens, people when hydration
stops being something you thinkabout and starts becoming
something you just do.
It's a behavior loop C rewardyou anchor it, you repeat it and
(18:55):
boom, it sticks.
That's how you win thehydration game without turning
into a human fountain or needinglike some fucking water tank
strapped to your hip.
So that's it.
Three hacks, zero excuses.
One start your day hydrated tomake water taste good, without
drinking all these crazychemicals.
And number three is buildrituals around your life, not in
(19:19):
spite of it.
And if you're still thinking,but I'll forget, good, that
means you're normal.
But now you've got tools tochange it, because you don't
need to be perfect, you justneed to be better than yesterday
, all right.
So look, I've already brokendown the myths.
I've cut through a lot of theshit.
You now understand whyhydration actually matters, and
you've got three simple, nobullshit hacks to make it happen
(19:41):
.
So now it's time to stop justknowing and start doing.
So welcome to your challenge.
You know I'm totally againstchallenge, but here's your
challenge.
I'm not asking you to overhaulyour life.
This isn't drink 120 ounces ofreport pack.
This isn't some Instagramhydration challenge where you
post selfies with your waterbottle and a motivational quote.
You're not here for that.
(20:02):
That's not what I do.
You're here for results, andresults start with action Small,
boring, repeatable action.
So here's what I want you to doTomorrow morning before you do
anything else, before your phone, before your coffee, before you
even think about breakfast, Iwant you to drink 12 ounces of
water.
That's it.
One simple move, no excuses.
(20:23):
If you got time to scrollTikTok in bed, you got time to
slam a glass of water.
You're not doing it becauseit's trendy.
You're doing it because itwakes up your body.
It kickstarts your metabolism,tells your brain, hey, we're
alive, let's get going.
And yeah, it also sets the tonefor the rest of the day,
because when your first move isa win, it's a whole lot easier
(20:43):
to stack a few more.
Then, after that, here's yournext mission Sip water with
intention before every meal.
I'm not talking about sippingwhile you eat or chugging a
gallon while standing at thestove.
I mean just pause, grab yourwater and take a few solid gulps
before you dig in.
It gives your stomach a headstart, it tells your body the
food's coming and it helps youto avoid the whole oops, I ate
(21:06):
like I was being timed.
That's the kind of habit thatslips in quietly and sticks hard
.
You'll find yourself naturallyeating less, feeling more full
and skipping the post-meal bloat, all from a few sips.
That's what I call a power move.
And if you're rolling your eyesright now, thinking it can't be
that simple, guess what it is,but only if you actually do it,
(21:30):
not once, not for a day, everyday until it becomes automatic.
Here, say it with me out loudif you're not in public, or you
know in your head if you'remaking believe you're working
while you listen to this.
Hydration is not punishment,it's fuel.
Say it again Hydration is notpunishment for overeating.
(21:50):
It's not some atonement forskipping your workout.
It's not what you do to earnyour next snack.
It's your fuel.
You need it to function, youneed it to focus, you need it to
feel human.
So stop acting like it's achore and start treating it like
it's your secret weapon,because it is.
And let me hit you with one moretruth bomb before we close this
(22:11):
out.
It's not about being perfect.
It's about building a habit.
You don't even notice.
I say that all the time, butyou're not here to be a
hydration saint.
You're here to build a habitthat's so second nature you
don't even think about it.
Like brushing your teeth or atleast I hope you do that.
It's like locking the door.
It's like swearing under yourbreath when some asshole cuts
(22:34):
you off in traffic.
That's how real change happens.
That's how real change happensNot in the dramatic before and
after photos, but in the boring,quiet, consistent moves that
you make every single day.
Drinking water sorry, it's notsexy, but it's effective as hell
.
And, the best part, you'realready capable of doing it.
So again, here's what I wantfrom you today Wake up, drink a
(22:57):
glass of water 12 ounces Beforeevery meal, take a few
intentional sips and three buildthe habit.
Don't think, just do.
No drama, right?
No overthinking, no gallon jugwith fucking inspirational
quotes in it, just you, a glassand the decision to show up for
yourself in the smallest waypossible and keep doing it.
(23:19):
This is Shut Up and Choose, andthat was your hydration wake-up
call.
So here it is.
We cut through the hype, weslapped the gallon chugging
bullshit in the face and I laiddown some real, doable
strategies to actually makewater work for you.
So let's recap, becauserepetition builds results.
(23:39):
One water isn't magic, it'smetabolic.
It curbs cravings, fuels yourbody, keeps digestion smooth and
helps you feel less like afoggy snack-seeking animal.
You don't need a hydrationspreadsheet or 128-ounce jug
with timestamps and guilt trips.
You just need a habit andbuilding that habit.
Timestamps and guilt trips, youjust need a habit and building
that habit.
(24:00):
It's stupid simple.
Start the day with 12 ouncesbefore anything else, sip with
intention before meals and makewater taste good without
drinking something that soundslike it belongs in a crystal
shop, oh yeah, and tie yoursipping to everyday moments
Emails, workouts, netflix,whatever keeps you consistent.
(24:20):
We all know this.
But I'm not here to babysit you.
I'm not going to check if yourpiss looks like champagne or
Mountain Dew.
That's on you.
But if you actually do thechallenge I gave you wake up,
drink water, sip before mealsyou'll start to feel a shift
More energy, more control, lessbloat, fewer cravings.
It really adds up.
(24:40):
And again, I say this all thetime you don't need to be
