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 best parking spot take worst one all way at back of parking lot so you have to walk more. * Throw away your TV remote & get up to change channels. * Stop using elevator. Take stairs or at least take 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 beginning but all 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 morning Morning workouts keep your metabolism elevated throughout day. An elevated metabolism throughout 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 extra fat that you can burn during day if you exercise in 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 day and along with working out in morning eating breakfast will also keep you energized throughout day

So lets review:

* Most Diets don’t Work * To eat what you want & lose weight, you have to increase your metabolism * To increase your metabolism:

1. Eat More frequently 2. Build Muscle 3. GET ACTIVE 4. Workout in Morning 5. Eat Breakfast 6. Have some Green tea

But if you want to lose weight for good, look your best, & keep your metabolism burning at a steady rate… You got to lose weight at a much slower rate.

You want to try to lose no more than 2lbs a week or 3lbs at most when you want to lose weight permanently. Usually when you lose anything over 2lbs a week you are only losing water and muscle weight which again has no effect on long-term weight loss or significantly improving way you look.

Losing 2lbs a week is a lot simpler than trying to lose 10lbs a week. One of things you can do to start losing 2lbs a week is to substitute higher calorie foods you eat with lower calorie foods.

For example a simple trick that I have most of my clients do is to replace all sodas and juices they drink with water. The drinking water trick is taken very lightly by a lot of people---but many of my clients tell me that they see a difference in their weight after drinking only water for a couple of weeks.

The other thing you can do is to increase your daily physically activity. This doesn’t mean that you have to start signing up for marathons regularly. To gradually increase your physical activity you can--

* Park in back of parking lots so you have to walk more to your destination * You can take stairs instead of elevator—it doesn’t have to be all flights…walk some flights and take elevator rest of way. * Play golf or play with your kids everyday

The point is to just do something…It doesn’t have to a lot at first but after about a couple weeks start to take 20-30minitue walks in park or ride a bicycle everyday.

Long-term weight loss doesn’t happen in 60 days or overnight… it happens in Long-term. Just remember that next time you see a weight loss ad that promises you unbelievable results.
