Fat Burning Tips



What is the best way to burn fat? The fat burning process can be very simple as long as the proper dieting and training techniques are applied. Keep in mind, everyone has a different body type. Techniques or methods that work for others may not work for you. This next segment will briefly describe some of the insider tips needed to begin the fat burning process.

There is an old saying that fat loss success is 80-percent nutrition. Frankly, I'm not sure what the percentage actually is (no one does). However, based on my experience it's clear to me that it all begins with nutrition. If you don't have your nutrition program "dialed in," you will not achieve success. It doesn't matter how hard or how long you workout. This applies to everyone who starts a diet and fitness program.

The first and best way to burn fat is to modify your current diet. There are three simple ways you can begin to modify: reduce calories, reduce sodium, and reduce fat. For example, by substituting a glass of water for a carbonated beverage, you can cut approximately 150 calories or more, depending on how much is consumed. Even if it were fruit juice instead of water, you would still reduce calories by approximately 50 – 100.

Your goal should be to control blood sugar. Controlling blood sugar levels helps to shed fat. This is accomplished by taking in some protein, carbohydrates and good fats spread evenly through the day every two to three hours and by not over eating.

Eating less fat is making us fat. We should be eating more fat. But remember, it should be the right kind of fat. Not the processed fats, but the essential ones.

Cut Eat Meat to Lose Weight



A European study of almost 400,000 adults found that eating meat was linked with weight gain, even in people taking in the same number of calories.

The strongest association was found with processed meat, such as sausages and ham, the Imperial College London team reported.

It suggests that high-protein diets may not help slimmers in the long run.

The researchers say that several existing observational studies already show that increased meat consumption leads to weight gain. However, there is continuing uncertainty about whether the link is fully attributable to meat intake itself, and so there is a need to explore the issue with further research.

Step 1

Don't eat meat on a Monday. Johns Hopkins' Bloomberg School of Public Health started the Meat Free Monday initiative to encourage a reduction in meat consumption. It's a good way to get started at lowering your meat intake.

Step 2

Cut processed meats from your diet first. These include sausages, hamburgers, ham and bacon. All contain higher levels of salt and fat that result in higher calories and greater weight gain.

Step 3

Take meat out of your refrigerator and freezer. If there's no meat around the house, you're less likely to snack on it in a moment of weakness.

Step 4

Avoid snacking on fatty products such as cheese and buttered bread. Replacing high-fat meat with high-fat alternatives won't lower your weight.

Step 5

Replace meats with meat substitutes. Vegetarian sausages and burgers make good alternatives to their meaty cousins. Soy-based products often mimic meat flavors, such as bacon and chicken. However, some vegetarian sausages and burgers contain lots of oil and salt.

Step 6

Buy fish and poultry, such as chicken, when you do want to eat meat. Most fish and poultry is lower in saturated fats than red meat.

Step 7

Add beans, chickpeas, healthy nuts such as walnuts and seeds to your diet to keep your protein levels up without consuming meat. Snack on seeds and nuts when hungry.

Weight Loss Secrets for Around the World



Thai food is among the spiciest in the world. Hot peppers raise your metabolism, but the real benefit of food with a little zing is that it slows your eating, says James Hill, PhD, past president of the American Society for Nutrition. 'Americans eat too fast,' he says. 'By the time your body signals that it's full, you've overeaten. Eating slower is a good weight-loss strategy, and making food spicier is an easy way to do it.'

If you walk into a McDonald's in London, the clerk won't ask if you'd like to 'supersize' that. This option was discontinued in the U.K. after it accounted for less than 0.1 percent of sales. The Brits prefer smaller portions-perhaps a lingering vestige of the frugality instilled by World War II rationing, says Simon Hartley, executive editor of Reader's Digest U.K.

In the United States, McDonald's has backed off supersizing too. But a large Coke here still contains 100 calories more than one in the U.K., and there's no such thing as a Double Quarter Pounder with Cheese in Great Britain. Take the hint: Who really needs to eat a half-pound of meat at a sitting?

The Mediterranean diet. The Asian diet. The French women have their own diet, too. When it comes to weight control, it sometimes seems as if every culture on the planet has the answer -- except us!

* Fabulous foreign food doesn't have to be fatty
* What we can learn from the French way of eating
* Take it slow -- no matter which cuisine you favor

As our collective girth steadily grows -- and with it, our risks for heart disease, stroke, and even some cancers -- experts say it's time to sit down at the international dinner table with something more than dessert on our minds.

"There is no real mystery as to why Americans are gaining weight. We have a body that needs roughly 2,200 calories a day to survive, and a food industry that insists on producing and pushing 3,700 calories a day. Do the math and you'll see what's going wrong," says Steven Jonas, MD, PhD, a professor of preventive medicine at State University of New York at Stonybrook, and author of 30 Secrets of the World's Healthiest Cuisines.
