Always eat breakfast in the morning. Eating after you awake helps
increase your metabolism. Hence, break-fast....break the fast.
Don't skip breakfast. If you wait until mid morning or afternoon to
eat, your metabolism will run slower. Think of breakfast as adding
logs to the fireplace. Your metabolism is the fireplace and logs are
the breakfast.
Eat smaller meals through the day. Eat 4 to 6 six small meals, 2 to
3 hours apart.
Don't depend on herbal products to boost your metabolism and
energy level. Any metabolic increase will be minimum and herbs
are not cheap. Instead, include more energy foods such as whole
grains, beans, legumes, vegetables and fruits.
Park further away and walk. Use the stairs instead of the elevator
when possible. Walk to the post office instead of getting into the
car. Take your dog on a daily walk. Do more activities around the
house to burn energy instead of wasting money on pills and
potions that don't work.
Incorporate a walking routine three to four days a week. Walk 30
to 40 minutes each time. This is the best way to increase your
metabolism. The body was meant for exercise but sometimes our
modern lifestyle gets in the way.
Don't starve yourself when trying to lose weight. This will slow
down your metabolism in a hurry. Avoid 5 to 6 hour gaps between
meals without eating.
Be committed to eating smaller meals at regular intervals. Prepare
food in advance and bring it with you. Never eat sporadically and
plan each meal. The common mistake is to skip meals and eat too
little during the day. This makes you vulnerable for eating junk
food later in the day. Eating to lose weight takes planning.
