Some Fat Burning Tips For You

By Ricardo Daryans

At any time of year, we can use every last tip to help avoid holiday weight gain. Here you will find some fat loss tips.

1) Don't drink liquid calories.

Please, no juices, sodas or sports drinks. Liquid sugar is your worst enemy when you are trying to lose fat.

You must also limit your alcohol intake - especially if you are adding mix to drinks...that is a double calorie bomb! A single "Jackand Coke" is over 200 calories (100 calories from booze and 100 calories from mix).

2) Forget about fast food.

Fast food restaurants? You should call them FAT food restaurants, because that's what you will find there instead of the healthy food you need.

The kind of food you'll find there is fast and cheap because of the poor quality of the food ingredients (especially the protein).

The politically-incorrect truth is that it's going to take time and effort to eat properly. You will have to plan, shop, and prepare healthy meals. You will have to spend time cleaning, cutting, and cooking your food. That's the truth.

As i told you, it may be hard at the beginning, but that food will be fresh as no other, will taste better (a lot better than fast food), and, the most important thing, it will be healthier. It will make you more alert, it will not make you want to have an afternoon nap at your desk.

One small improvement to your nutrition everyday for the rest of your life means a lot to your health.

3) Try eating more fruits and vegetables.

The goal is to eat up to 10 servings per day. If you are eating 2 servings per day, then go up to 4 servings per day by the end of the week. Then go up to 5 servings per day.

Consume fiber-rich fruits and vegetables.

Nuts are also a good choice, but not the roasted in oils ones (they may be source of trans fats). Stick to natural or dry-roasted nuts.

Don't panic...this small amount of nuts won't make you fat, but will fill you up and help you lose weight.

5) Exercise.

Make sure the workouts are efficient and effective. If you want to make it easy for you to follow, stick with the Turbulence Training fat burning workout system.

Just train consistently, it doesn't matter if you train in the morning before or after breakfast, or at night before or after dinner, or at 1pm on days when the moon is in line with Saturn...don't worry about the details.

6) BONUS TIP: Sitting around watching the TV and snacking, is not the best thing to do after a big meal. Go for a walk, this will help you control your cholesterol and triglycerides. - 15343
