Please keep in kind when this article says "a reduced calorie diet in combo with 500ml of water led to an increase in weight loss",  you take into account the type of physical activity you are doing before reducing your calorie intake.

Did you know that individuals who are obese tend to have more muscle than you would expect due to the fact that they have to carry their weight around every day. When you are aiming to get in shape it is important to do some sort of strength training to build muscle mass and or keep muscle mass. Muscles burn fat through out the day. In comparison when doing only "cardio" you are only burning fat during the activity but once you are done thats it your body does not continue to burn fat through out the day unless you have the muscle mass to do so. Again this is why it is important to combine strength and endurance workouts, also known as metabolic conditioning workouts.
