    I’ve got news for you: Most of what you’ve been taught about weight loss is WRONG.

    These days we’re all watching TV shows that tell us to eat like cavemen, that it’s OK to put butter into our coffee, and that eating avocados helps to slim our thighs. What’s worse is that we actually believe starving ourselves will lead to weight loss.

    The truth is that our current eating habits are damaging to our metabolisms, and many of the so-called “healthy” habits we have are actually to blame for our weight gain because they mess up our metabolism, slowing it down and making weight gain happen more easily.

    Have you ever wondered, “Why are Americans getting fatter every year, yet there is a health club on every street corner and a diet for every season of the year?” The key to losing 7 pounds in 7 days all comes down to the speed of our metabolism.

    Most of us lack a fast enough metabolism to burn all the calories we consume. We’re stuck in the slow lane, when we should be speeding along in the fat-burning express lane.

    Have you ever had a bad eating day and seemingly put on two pounds overnight? The Five Simple Slimming Solutions outlined below will help you to harness the power of your metabolism, making losing weight faster and easier no matter your age or the slowness of your metabolism!

    Learn how to kick-start your metabolism into high gear so you shed pounds just as quickly as you put them on. Try these 5 proven weight loss strategies and you’ll lose a pound per day and melt off belly fat FAST:

    1) Thermogenic Eating: A Key to Weight Loss

    Thermogenic eating is not only the best way to lose a pound per day but also helps you to break through those weight loss plateaus. Thermogenic eating fires up your metabolism and recalibrates your appetite, turning off those diet-destroying food cravings.

    Eating thermogenically can be as simple as swapping your usual carbohdrate-filled or caveman-style breakfast for a clean, whey protein shake made with ice and coffee. Remember to wait 12 hours after your last meal to enjoy your smoothie. This one simple step can help you break through your weight loss plateau no matter what diet plan you are following.

    Lisa’s Lean Latte Recipe

    Mix the following ingredients together in a shaker cup or blender. Be sure to purchase whey that is low-calorie (150 calories or less), with fewer than 5 grams of sugar. It should also be dairy free, soy free, and high-grade micro-filtered for the best weight loss results.

    Two scoops of whey – Vanilla or Chocolate
    Five ice cubes
    One teaspoon granulated coffee
    ½ cup of water
    (Do not add fruit or milk of any kind; including coconut or almond milk.)

    2) Incorporate Metabolic-Boosting Workouts

    Research shows that vigorous exercise isn’t necessary in order to lose weight. In fact, exercising too hard may be your problem.

    “Metabolic workouts” are best for fat burning and fast weight loss. In addition, they reshape the body without adding bulkiness. You only have to do 3 metabolic workouts per week to see results (often in the first week!). And if you want to turbocharge your metabolic workout, add 10,000 steps daily to melt that extra layer of fat away.

    When it comes to boosting metabolism, metabolic workouts provide much more effective results for taking off seven pounds in seven days than do other workouts such as Pilates, Yoga, and even “extreme” exercise such as boot camps and cross fit.

    3) Take Safe Supplements that Stop Food Cravings

    The truth is that sometimes diet and exercise aren’t enough. The same way we use power tools to make building a house easier, specific supplements can make losing weight easier by stopping food cravings and boosting mood at the same time.

    Smart use of certain nutrients can stop food cravings before they even begin. A few of my recommendations are Vitamin D, Omega-3, and B-Complex. For really difficult times I take Cocoa Bean Powder mixed with green tea for a quick pick-me-up.

    The key to weight loss success is in the timing of taking these vitamin supplements. I recommend you take them 1-2 hours before food cravings kick in. My motto has always been: take Omega-3 at 3pm.

    If you don’t see or feel results in 2 weeks using non-LynFIT supplements, then stop taking them. You most likely are not going to see results with that regimen.

    It’s important that you only take high quality supplements. You might spend a little more but you’ll use less with LynFIT supplements, saving you money in the long run while providing faster results.

    4) Start NOW!

    Don’t wait for weight loss. If you’re waiting for the perfect time to start losing weight you’ll always be waiting. Start now and you can be 1 pound lighter by tomorrow and reach your goal of dropping 7 lbs. in a week.

    Really, how much more motivation do you need? Stop putting it off and get started TODAY.

    5) Eat 3 Meals a Day + 1 Snack to Boost Metabolism

    Drink warm water with lemon, or hot tea (sans the milk and sugar) between meals and eat a small green apple mid-afternoon to kill cravings and keep your system regular.

    Most of us only think we’re hungry when the reality is that we’re thirsty. When it comes to water, drink ½ your body weight in ounces daily to keep your metabolism running smoothly.

    Did you know that being dehydrated can slow your metabolism by 3%? Melt that belly fat by drinking more water!
