Losing 10 Pounds- Tip #2
So hopefully you have the water tip down. Half of your body weight. If not, you can't move on to tip #2.
So for your second secret to losing those 10 pounds you get to eat more. YES! Eat more! In order to keep your metabolism rolling all day, you need to eat more frequently. We suggest you eat 5 small meals a day. Therefore, eat about every 3-4 hours. Now keep in mind, these should be portioned controlled. Do not eat 5 large meals, you will gain weight instead of losing it. Instead eat smaller meals, including a good protein, carbohydrate, and fat with each meal.
Now the trick is once you get to meal #4 and 5, try eliminating the heavy carbohydrates like grains or pastas. Instead stick to a healthy protein and good carbohydrate (vegetable). This will help you to lose weight and not have a heavy carb sitting in your belly at night or while you sleep.
Now, with these 5 meals, they should be primary whole foods (not packaged crap like chips or sugary granola bars. Think 5 ingredients or less and the less the better.
If you can get tip #1 and #2 down, you are on a roll!
