speeding up metabolism
what does everyone take to speed up their metabolism? :exclm:
|
The only two I know and which work for me are green tea (lots of it - the real stuff, not decaff or extract) and exercise.
|
Exercise and pure water.
|
Exercise, water and coconut oil.

Yep, exercise does it.
|
I have also found that by eating breakfast every day, it seems to speed things up. Who would have thought eating more would help in that way. :)

Take a 20-30 minute "dose" 3-5 times a week, for life. JFF:D |
Thanks yall, I just bought some chromium too!

Resistance exercise like weight training. And splitting up your meals into 6 smaller ones per day.

Ditto on weight training, water, and a cup of green tea. :D

I walk my dogs up hill to the park; 3 miles in the morning, and 3 miles at night. I also drink and enormous amount of water.

I started doing this on Monday and combined with the Oil of Oregano I believe it's what gave me the 4 pound Whoosh this morning. Lily |
Exercise 6 days a week(cardio and weights), EFA capsules, 1.5 - 2 real coffee every morning.

I am walking a lot, eating breakfast, and eating coconut on occassion for the oil. I think these three strategies speed my metabolism up. I wanted to try L-Carnitine but it is so ridiculously expensive that I decided to weight until I experience a real stall.

COCONUT OIL and Exercise. It may just be a coincidence, but 10 days ago, I started using Coconut Oil [3-6g/day initially, and then upped it to 14g/day] and I dropped 5 pounds in the last 10 days (3.5 lbs/wk.) I'd been losing about 2 lbs/week before I started using the Coconut Oil. I dropped 11 pounds in 24 days in January (3.2 lbs/wk,) but I was eating 1,827 kcal/day vs. the 2,101 kcal/day that I am now.
Metabolism needed to explain Weight-Loss [assuming Calorie Theory is correct]: January: 3,427 kcal/day February: 3,380 kcal/day Last 10 Days: 3,851 kcal/day |
