How do you lose 9 pounds in 3 days?

There is nothing like losing weight in 19 days. But I'm going to list the most outstanding secrets about weight loss and fitness.

Eat More, and More Often

Overweight people just need to eat less, right? Wrong! In fact, studies show that many overweight people eat no more than thin people. The problems really start when you try to loss weight by cutting back on calories. You skip breakfast. Eat a small salad for lunch and a diet microwave dish for dinner. If you are losing weight, but you are not burning fat- you are losing muscle tissue. Even heart muscle tissue. And over time, this can be very dangerous for your health.

Eat before you get hungry.

Eating more of the right foods, more often, will cause your body to stay in fat-burning mode, and allow you to lose weight without getting hungry.

Don't let yourself get hungry before you eat! Eat before you get hungry. Eating small amounts of lean protein and good fats every 2 to 3 hours will keep away your cravings and help you stick to foods that keep you burning fat. If you don't believe it, there's a simple test that will prove it to you!

When you eat is almost as important as what you eat

Timing is everything. Pay attention to your body. Notice your hunger and craving cycles throughout the day. You can avoid failure (throwing your body out of fat -burning mode) by nibbling slowly on small amounts of the right foods- lean protein and good fats- before your hunger and craving cycles kick in. You know how hard it is to resist temptation (eating the wrong foods) once you are hungry. Start eating 30 to 45 minutes before you normally experience hunger. Don't let yourself get hungry.

Loss weight while you sleep

Watch what you eat before bedtime. It's best to stop eating 3 to 4 hours before you go to bed. Your body releases human growth hormone during sleep. Human growth hormone helps build lean muscle mass and is very important for your overall health. Elevated blood sugar at night can decrease or cancel the release of this vital hormone. Try eating some lean protein like sliced turkey breast instead of carbs before your retire. It will not significantly raise your blood sugar, and it will help you get the rejuvenating rest you need to stay fit.

Skipping breakfast can make you fat

If you think skipping breakfast will help you loss weight, think again! New studies show that breakfast - especially a cereal breakfast - is associated with better weight control.
