So I came across an infomercial and I thought to myself I think I've heard this stuff before. Instead of buying a $200 eating plan. Instead I asked my brother Fitness Guru Jerry Lee Gilmore:

My brother basically said the guy on the commercial just re-mixed the words but presenting the same strategy to naturally boost your metabolism.
Here's the Skinny-
- If your blood sugar spikes your body goes into fat storing mode.
- your blood sugar spikes when you don't eat or eat too much processed foods
- Processed foods are Simple carbs- which means it processes quickly in your bloodstream, stores the sugar and fat then shortly after you are hungry again.
- So to prevent your blood sugar from spiking it's best to snack on complex carbs
- complex carbs means your body takes a while to digest it and break it down therefore your sugar doesn't spike.
- This is why you've heard eat 5 times a day SMALLER PORTION sizes .
- Since your eating throughout the day small portions you won't have that urge to WOOF down a Super Sized Value Meal, it takes 20-30 minutes for your stomach to tell your brain your eating soooooooooo if your eating Fast Food, you eat it fast, chew fast and woof down about 4,000 calories.
- Chew slow, savor it it stalls time so your brain gets the message
- drink water through out the day, a tip if your really hungry drink some water then eat it'll slow you down from WOOFing your food.
- Pack your meals for the next day so they are handy
MEAL SHOULD BE
- It should be Breakfast with Protein, Simple Carb and Complex Carb
- Snack on a Complex Carb
- Lunch with Protein and Complex Carb
- Snack on a Complex Carb
- Dinner with Protein and Complex Carb
- Snack on a Complex Carb- if you have to
mix this with light excersize and your body will begin to metabolize it's body fat and you should be loosing weight.
Keep a copy of a portion size list with you. Which is why Americans are so obese. Plus we don't walk but drive everywhere. I will post a list of Complex and Simple Carbs tommorrow.
