Being on a strict diet for any period of time only increases
your cravings for the food you loved in the first place.
It increasing your cravings to a point where you overeat
so much that you gain weight.
To eat the foods you like and still lose weight you simply
have to increase your metabolism. Your metabolism is your
body’s fireplace. This fireplace will burn all that
ugly body fat off you if operate it correctly. Here are
some (6) simple ways to increase your metabolism:
1. Eat More!
That’s right. Instead of eating 1-3 big meals a day
try eating 5-7 smaller meals a day. Remember your body’s
metabolism is like a fireplace. Think about this way: when
you eat 1-3 big meals you are basically putting a real big
log on your fireplace and anytime you put too much on a
fire it goes out.
When you feed yourself small meals spaced about 2-3 hours
apart during the day you are putting small pieces of wood
on your fat-burning fireplace. These small meals keep your
fireplace burning throughout the day.
What happens when you don’t put any wood on a fireplace?
It goes out right? The same thing happens when you eat less
than 3 meals a day. Waiting 4-6 hours between meals is too
long, to keep your fireplace going remember to eat SMALL
meals every 2-3 hours.
Just eat enough in each meal to satisfy you and not so
much that you fell full.
2. Build Muscle
Did you know…
• That just 1lb of muscle burns off a pound of fat
every 70 days!
• 3lbs of muscle will burn off a pond of fat every
23 days
• 5lbs of muscle will burn a pound of fat every 2
weeks.
Building muscle doesn’t mean you have to start Bench
pressing, squatting, or buying fancy equipment. To build
muscle you can do simple bodyweight exercises like pushups,
crunches, and bodyweight squats.
Walking up steep hills at a moderate to fast pace will
build muscle in your legs. All it takes is 10-20min a day
2-3 times a week with weights or your own bodyweight. Don’t
worry about what the scale says when you put a few pounds
of muscle.
Good-looking muscle weights more and is more dense than
ugly body fat. If you put on five pounds of muscle it will
seem like you lost 5-10lbs.
3. Become a lil’ active
Notice that I said become a lil’ active. By adding
just a little bit of physical activity to your regular daily
routine can increase your metabolism. Getting more active
doesn’t mean you have to sign up at a gym and take
tae-bo or start participating in marathons regularly! There
are many ways that you can easily become a little more active
to lose weight.
For example:
- When you go to a store-instead of trying to get the
best parking spot take the worst one all the way at the
back of the parking lot so you have to walk more.
- Throw away your TV remote & get up to change the
channels.
- Stop using the elevator. Take the stairs or at least
take the stairs half way up.
These are just a few examples of ways that you can start
adding a little physical activity to your daily routine.
It may not seem like much in the beginning but all the extra
calories you burn by doing these little activities adds
up to you losing more weight.
Could you save gas by walking to certain locations or is
it possible that you can ride a bike to certain locations
instead of driving? Just be creative and start thinking
about how you can gradually add some extra physical activity
your daily routine.

4. Have some Green Tea?
Studies show that green tea helps you lose weight by increasing
your body’s metabolism. Green tea helps you burn an
extra 80 calories a day which adds up to 8lbs a year. For
all you diet-conscienc people aout there green tea also
helps to reduce cravings. 3-5 cups a day Safe and naturally
5. Workout in the morning
Morning workouts keep your metabolism elevated throughout
the day. An elevated metabolism throughout the day only
means that you’ll burn calories and lose more weight.
If your workout out at night you may still burn fat while
you workout but as soon as you go to sleep your metabolism
will slow down and you’ll miss out on all the extra
fat that you can burn during the day if you exercise in
the morning. When you sleep your metabolic rate is at its
slowest.
6. Eat breakfast
After your morning workout eat breakfast. Don’t skip
breakfast and wait until mid-morning or afternoon to eat,
your metabolism will run slower causing you not burn any
extra fat. Think about this way-Your metabolism is a fireplace
that’ll burn fat all day for you if you operate it
correctly. When you eat breakfast you are basically throwing
a logs onto that fireplaces to get it burning fat.
Eating breakfast will help stop those cravings you may
have later on in the day and along with working out in morning
eating breakfast will also keep you energized throughout
the day
