Increasing Your Metabolism To Lose Weight
By: Cathi Graham
Increasing your metabolism to lose weight can be done in as little as 5 days!
One-size-fits-all diets don’t work....but then you probably know that already. Have you ever tried a diet that your friend raved about, but which brought you little or no results? Why would this happen? People are biochemical individuals and react differently to foods – this is why one diet may work for your friend, but not for you. You need to determine what is the best combination of foods for your body.
Every body is unique. Every body needs and processes different foods at different levels of efficiency. The key to successful weight release is based on finding out what food plan is right for your unique body, and what foods your body responds to positively to keep you at a healthy weight, without constant dieting and without suffering and feeling deprived.
It’s time to stop making the scales our “God” & rethink Hollywood’s idea of the perfect “air brushed body.” As Cindy Crawford said when she saw an airbrushed picture of herself on a magazine cover, “I wish I could look like Cindy Crawford.” With the right metabolism program, you can have a realistic healthy body shape & feel great by taking charge of your life with healthy, enjoyable food plans designed for your body type, engage in physical activity for fun & above all, learn how to feel good about yourself. Join the thousands of other people who have rejected the one-size-fits-all negative diet thinking and discover the rewards of energy and improved well being.
Here is a quick 5 day program that you can start today to rev up your metabolism:
Day 1: Squeeze ½ Lemon Into A Glass Of Water ~ Drink this upon rising or before a meal as this cleanses the body, aids in weight loss and keeps insulin balanced.
Day 2: Consume spices that burn calories~ Dr. Jay Henry Joya at the Oxford Institute proved that some of the most famous fat-burners that increase your metabolism are cayenne pepper and mustard. For example, less than one tsp. of spicy mustard can increase your metabolism by 25% for up to 3 hours!
Day 3: Identify what “triggers” your emotional eating. Be conscious that watching TV at night can send you snacking, so have something to do with your hands instead, like putting together puzzles or knitting.
Day 4: Get Moderate Doses of Sunlight....Surprise! ~ Sunlight in moderation is good for increasing your metabolism, reports Zane Kim, M.D. “There is conclusive evidence that exposure to sunlight produces a metabolic effect in the body very similar to that produced by physical training and is definitely followed by measured improvement in physical fitness.
Day 5: Start some sort of moderate exercise program, even 15 – 20 minutes of walking is a great stress reducer for a psychological and physical win. Do something active you like - walking, biking, swimming, etc. You will soon get hooked!

Weight Loss Discipline (Excerpt)
Weight Loss and Discipline
Why is it so hard to lose weight and keep it off? We have
all heard that weight loss is just a matter of taking in
less calories than we expend. That certainly sounds very
logical, but is it really that simple?
For example, I had an intention of only eating fruits and
vegetables for a day or two, to counteract the recent
'junk'
food I had been enjoying. This was a solid plan that
practically guaranteed a decrease in caloric intake.
However, a solid plan doesn't always mean an easy
execution.
I figured I would be relatively safe making a trip to the
health food store. So my guard against high fat foods was
down. When I got to the store, my sensibilities were
assailed by a well meaning clerk hawking some freshly
made
corn beef and cabbage. I could hardly resist the
temptation. And that wasn't the end of it. Once my armour
was breached, the temptation of tasty, 'health oriented'
cookie samples fought for my attention.
