How To Successfully Lose Weight and Keep It Off Hello everyone,
I see there are alot of tips and articles on here on how to lose weight. Well from my research and experience, I can provide you with some basic guidelines. They are as follows. In this article I will go over 3 points and explain them in detail and in future articles, I will explain the rest.
Eat every 2-3 hours. This will keep your blood sugar stable and keep you metabolic rate high (which burns more calories).
Eat lean protein with each meal. Protein has a high thermogenic effect. What does that mean? Well, it means that your body uses more calories to burn protein, compared to carbohydrates. Also, protein slows down the absorption of glucose into the bloodstream when eaten with carbohydrates.
Eat vegetables with each meal. Protein and carbohydrates, when eaten, put your body into an acidic state. Now for those of you who dont understand acididty and alkalinity, simply put, your body will store more fat and run at lower than optimal levels if its in an acidic state. This is where vegetables comes in. Vegetables help to neutralize all those acids that are in your blood and return your body to an alkaline state (which is good). Also, if your body is continously in an acidic state, then your body looks for ways to neutralize it on its own. Well guess what. Your body will take glutamine from your muscles and calcium from your bones to help change this acidic state. What does this mean for you. Well, it means muscle and bone loss, which is what you don't want.
Look for my next weight loss tips.
Hope you enjoyed them.

Spinach feta wrap from Starbuck's... only 280 calories! Best "fast food" breakfast I've seen...great for busy working Moms like me! I have to confess.... I am a fast food junkie. If it wasn't because the stuff makes you fat/unhealthy, I would eat it all the time. After I found out a large order of fries at McDonald's had 500 calories, I've stopped eating them. That's one whole hour on the treadmill...not sure they're that worth it. lol!

I only say simple carb WITH a protein...the sugar will shoot the protein straight to your muscles for repair. For example, chocolate milk would be a great after workout snack.
