Why can’t I Lose weight check list!


Below I’ve listed 9 tips that you need to check and ensure you implement for maximum weight loss. Below, perhaps is the key to why your results are slow or non existent.

1. Cleanse your body and remove toxins. Toxin build up will suppress your immune system and slow metabolism. Slow metabolism equals slow fat loss.

2. Visit the bathroom regularly at least 2-3 times a day. If you’re not regular you’re constipated and have a slow metabolism. You could benefit from a colon cleanse or colonics.

3. Eat 5-6 small meals every day, every 3-3 ½ hours. Meals should consist of a lean protein, starchy carb and a fibrous carb. Each group should be about the size of a fist.


4. First meal of the day should be the largest and at least 30 minutes from waking.


5. Last meal of the day should be the smallest and at least 3 hours before bedtime.


6. Use the fat loss trick to boost fat loss. (Found on the facebook page.)


7. Exercise with resistance at least 3 times a week. Perform cardiovascular exercise everyday or at least 5 times a week.


8. Use breathing exercises to increase oxygen consumption and boost metabolism. A simple breathing exercise is to breath in (inhale) for 8-10 seconds filling up both upper and lower lungs, now hold for 16-20 seconds then exhale and fully empty the lungs. Do this every day for at least 2 minutes. The goal is to increase the oxygen intake and hold times.


9. Identify how you see yourself. I identify the image you hold in your mind when you think of yourself. You will never change or outperform the image you hold of yourself in your mind. If you see yourself as fat or overweight you will constantly sabotage your efforts to maintain the image of the fat or overweight person you hold in your mind.


Thanks for reading!
