Top 10 Things You Can Do to Lose Weight a Pound a Week

A pound a week doesn’t seem very fast, but that adds up to 52 pounds a year, if you have that much to lose. You have a better chance to keep the weight off with slow, steady loss. Fad diets do not work, cost too much money, and create an imbalance in the body! These ideas are not only great weight loss tools, but excellent tips to live by. If you follow these steps, I guarantee you will add healthy years to your life!

Try these steps to lose your extra pounds….

1. Drink lots of water, with lemon – Water increases your metabolism. Fresh lemon juice has enzymes that cleanse, and creates an alkaline condition in the body. Your cells release fat when they are in an alkaline state and bind fat when they are acidic. To bind is human, to release is divine. Acidity also attracts bacteria, fungus, parasites, and is always found with cancer, reflux, and gout so drink lots of lemonade!!!!

2. Take calcium – Studies in rats on a diet show that the ones with adequate calcium lost 30% more weight. Poor skinny rats! Calcium is best absorbed when taken with magnesium and I recommend taking it in the evenings.

3. Eliminate – Yes, we are talking poop. All that protein and no fruit makes you backed up. Drink psyllium husk with water twice a day or use another good source of fiber. An apple every morning is also a great fiber source. You will be light and fluffy!

4. Omega 3 oils – Eat fish and flax seeds every day if possible. Tuna and salmon are excellent sources of protein and omega 3’s. Flax seeds are also an excellent source of omega 3’s. Omega 3’s are also great for healthy cells, great looking skin and hair, and balancing hormones! Cancer patients and many regenerative disease patients show fatty acid deficiencies when tested on the QXCI.

5. Exercise before you eat – In the morning, do something to step up your metabolism. A short walk, jump up and down, run in circles, make love (while hanging from the trapeze for bonus points!). Your body will burn fat, not food. DO NOT eat for at least one hour after you exercise. You will continue to burn fat rather than food. Your metabolism is increased for about 3 hours after morning exercise.

6. Raw veggies equal love – carrots, celery, broccoli, etc. Veggies are alkalizing. And when you alkalize, what happens? That’s right, your fat falls off. Raw veggies have enzymes that digest food better, give you energy, slowly digest and make you feel full. And of course, make you poop much better!

7. Do squats – If you do not have time to exercise, do this. Next time you are standing in front of the refrigerator visualizing ice cream (which is acidic, by the way) do 10 deep squats. After you are done you will no longer want food. You will want to sit down. Now would be a great time for a glass of water. Squat when you brush your teeth, dry your hair, or watch TV. You are building some great muscle and fat is falling off.

8. Drink green tea – no more coffee or tea! It messes with your insulin levels, which causes cravings. Green tea on the other hand, increases your metabolism, is a powerful antioxidant, and for some reason makes you burn fat. Here’s an idea – how about drinking iced green tea with psyllium husk in it and the juice of one lemon while you are standing in front of the fridge doing squats!

9. Stop the sabotage – find the positive intention behind your issues with food. If your inner mind has a powerful need to eat to fill an emotional need, have protection, or be fat due to identification issues, no amount of will power will help. The part of your mind that needs to eat in excess will get even more determined and you will be more backed up than you were before, literally and figuratively. Clear the issue and make it easy.

10. Visualize – the one thing above all else that will make the fat fall off – three times a day, visualize the weight you will be when you step on the scale each day. Here is how to do it... Get relaxed, close your eyes, imagine yourself stepping on the scale tomorrow, one pound less. Visualize. Now, notice what day it is tomorrow. Feel your feet on the scale. See the number. Smile, breathe. Squat just for fun. Imagine tomorrow. Imagine it as real, the next day, the scale and one pound less. Make a note of what day it is. Imagine the next day, same scale, new number. Fat is falling off all over the place. Visualize seven days at a time. Implant the new weight and the day in your subconscious mind. Do it in the morning when you first wake up. Do it in the afternoon when you are dozing off at the office. Do it at night before you sleep. You will be amazed. As a result of this, your brain will become convinced after a day or two that fat is supposed to be falling off. Your body will start to make changes. Your energy level will increase, you will eat less, for some strange reason you will want to exercise. And the best part is your body will follow the new belief that you have created and make subtle changes to accomplish the task that your subconscious mind believe is happening. Your cravings will stop. You will want more water. You may even poop a little more often. It can be quite interesting to see the way your mind and body responds to your efforts in manifesting your new weight.
