Hey lovelies!!!
How are my darlings doing?? I hope yall doing great!!!
Nways, so this is my intake and workout for this week…
Tuesday- Friday
Breakfast: green tea or coffee
Lunch: nothing, (Thursday I ate a small cup of cottage cheese)
Dinner: coffee
2 hrs of kickboxing and 30 min of spinning
I haven’t got a chance to go to the gym cuz I still don’t have a
car yet, plus, ive been very busy taking care of all the
insurance paper work… I know those are not excuses or
anything, but they do make it harder to go to the gym….
And today I just went walking for an hour in the morning with
my doggy, he is sooo cute!! Hehe! And had coffee for breakfast,
lunch and dinner…
Nways, im gonna start fasting tomorrow, I guess im gonna go
for a week, and see how much I can lose. The only thing that
sucks about fasting, is that ur freacking metabolism tends to
slow down, but u can fix that by drinking tea, or coffee, and
doing lots of cardio.
Nways, I need to lose some weight, cuz my boyfriend’s
birthday is coming up, ( I think is the 21 or 22 of Feb.) I still
have some time, but I wanna be the lightest possible. and
valentine’s is coming up too, so I gotta rush with this pound-
losing-thing hehe!!!
So that’s my plan, fast for a week, and workout as much as I
can.
Well, here are some tips, I hope u enjoy them. I really appreciate
all of ur cmmts, if u have any q’s or need some extra help with
something don’t hesitate to reach me, ill cmmt back, or just
email me and ill add u to my contacts and email u back, ok?!!
Remember to drink lots of h2o!
Have a great weekend huns!!!
Luv u lots!

Oh, another thing, just so u know, like every time u fast u’r
not allowed to drink cappuchinnos, soda, chocolate milk, milk,
juice, or something in the categorie, cuz these beverages have
way too much cals and carbs, and the main goal of fasting is
for ur body to reach a ketosis state, ( is when ur body starts
burning fat, and carbs) and if u keep drinking ur carbs and
cals, then it’s not even worth the starving. If u don’t wanna
fast, but still
wanna lose weigh fast, u can do it by eliminating ur carb
intake, at least for two weeks, and ur body will be a fat
burning machine, trust me, u’ll see the friendly side of the
scale.
*Speed Up Your Metabolism*
1. Increase your meal frequency: Eat more often but don’t
increase total calories. For example, break three meals into
five to six smaller meals and eat every three hours. Food can
actually help burn body fat when used strategically. Breaking
meals into smaller feedings helps to control blood sugar and
puts you in a better position to lose fat.
2. Break up your workout: Many people are pressed for time
and the thought of exercise becomes another stress in their
lives. However, research has proven that two short bouts of
exercise per day will actually stimulate the metabolism more
than one longer bout. Go for two brisk 15 minute walks per
day, five days per week, and you’ll see progress at the end of
30 days.
3. Eat breakfast: If you sleep through the night and then
deprive the body of food in the morning, the body is sensing
a potential famine and holds onto stored body fat to keep
you alive. Remember, calories from food represent heat. Use
the heat to rev your metabolism.
4. Cycle calories: For three days, consume your minimum
calorie requirement based on your height, weight and goals.
Then, on day four, increase your calories by an additional 400
(nutritious foods only). This technique can actually get the
metabolism racing and stimulate additional fat loss.
5. Drinks lots of water: If you limit your water intake, the
body will retain water; the body only needs to be dehydrated
by approximately 2 percent for this to take place. Drink 0.55
multiplied by your body weight in ounces of water per day.
6. Exercise in the morning: If you can fit it into your
schedule, exercise in the morning. People who exercise
consistently in the morning find that exercise at this time
regulates their appetite all day long. They don’t get as hungry
and they start the day with a boost to the metabolism.
7. Perform cardio interval training: Cardio interval training is
simply short bursts of high-intensity exercise combined with
more moderate intensity within the same workout. Studies
have shown that people who perform interval training twice a
week (in addition to two other days of lower intensity cardio)
lose twice as much weight as those who do just a moderate
cardio workout. You can easily incorporate interval training
into your workout by inserting a 45 second burst into your
stationary bike workout every four to five minutes.
8. Boost your metabolism by reading instead of watching TV:
Researchers at Memphis State University monitored 32 girls as
they watched a half-hour television program. They found the
metabolic rates dropped as much as 16 percent below resting
metabolic rate. They burned fewer calories watching TV than
they did just by reading!
9. Drink green tea: Green tea is a popular tea from Japan that
has numerous health benefits, including weight loss. It’s not
100 percent certain how green tea helps one to lose fat, but it
appears to increase the amount of calories the body burns
not necessarily because of the small amounts of caffeine it
contains, but due to a compound abbreviated as EGCG.
When purchasing green tea make sure the label states that
the green tea used is standardized for caffeine and EGCG.
10. Practice hydrotherapy: First thing in the morning, drink 32
ounces of very cold water on an empty stomach. Don’t eat
breakfast for at least 30 minutes. The cold water will force
your body to raise its core temperature, thereby stimulating
your metabolism and excreting any excess water. You may
find that you lose two pounds the first month you try this. If
you want to take it a step further, do the same thing at lunch.
Try several of these easy-to-use tips and start getting your fat-burning metabolism revved.
Ana Astrology
Aries
Constantly challenge yourself to lose more more more.
Taurus
Physical hardship is your strength. Exercise and restrict a lot.
Gemini

Cancer

Leo

Virgo
Remember that your past fat was an injustice against you.
Libra
You are adept at finding true balance between eating and restricting.
Scorpio
Hate hate hate hate hate HATE HATE HATE HATE food. And know you'll get more partners when thinner.
Sagittarius
Don't supress hunger pains - enjoy them!
Capricorn
'Thou Shalt Not' works perfectly for you.
Aquarius
Think outside of the box - innovate new diets and routines for optimal efficiency!
Pisces
Dream about your target weight- and know that it is a possibility.
- Diet pills like Xenadrine, Hydroxicut, and Trim Spa attack the carbohydrates and fat that you consume and don't allow your body to digest it, they also increase metabolism and give you extra energy.
- Keep busy, bordom is a leading reason for why a lot of people over eat.
- Keep inspirational pictures in places were you will see them on a daily basis. A picture of yourself at your fattest as well as a picture of what you would like to look like will both be great inspiration and keep you motivated.
- When estimating calories of foods and/or portions, always over estimate. If you under estimate you'll eat more than you think you did and you'll have a harder time getting the results you want.
- Don't eat after 5:00pm. The earlier you eat in the day the more time you have to burn off those calories and your body naturally burns more calories when you are awake than when you are asleep
- If you know that you tend to binge, become hungry, or crave food at a specific time of day on a regular basis plan to do something that will keep you out of the fridge and cupboards at that time. Do laundry, visit an Ana/Mia forum, take a walk, or clean your room.
How to deal with food cravings
Cravings for foods like chocolate or potato chips aren't always in your head.
High-fat, high-calorie foods cause the body to release natural chemicals that make us feel better in times of stress, anxiety, and depression.
Although scientists don't know why, women usually crave chocolate and other sweets while men prefer salty or meaty snacks like chips, burgers, and pizza.
No matter what your preference, too much of these guilty pleasures can put on the pounds and may also increase unhealthy cholesterol and triglycerides.
Tips for taming cravings:
*Wait 20 minutes when a craving hits. They'll often go away.
*Don't keep chocolate or other foods you crave at home or in your desk.
*Keep reminding yourself of how damaging fat is to your health. High-fat food can damage your liver. - "kb"
*When you do treat yourself, eat slowly and savor every bite.
*Find low-calorie ways to satisfy cravings. Hot cocoa, fat-free fudgesicles, or frozen juice bars may be enough to satisfy a sweet tooth.
*If you do give into a craving for sweets, brushing your teeth may help you stop a binge.
