Cleanse Away Those Unwanted Pounds!


The LynFit Metabolic Boosting Cleanse has a clear-cut mission: Increase your metabolism, promote fat loss, and cleanse away that awful bloated, stuffed feeling. The core foundation of this simple, easy-to-follow plan is to encourage a healthier, more balanced, sustainable, leaner and cleaner lifestyle.

The LynFit Metabolic Boosting Cleanse is specifically designed to address the ten underlying causes of weight gain. Addressing these weight-gain factors upfront is the secret to your health and weight issues (including obesity), and they are almost always overlooked and not addressed by other juice cleanses and fasts.

#1: DETOXIFIES CLOGGED, TOXIC LIVERS

Livers that are clogged lack the nutrients needed to protect your health. When livers are clogged, they become loaded with toxins and cannot efficiently burn fat which can also stop you from losing weight.

#2: REDUCES THE STRESS HORMONES THAT ARE CAUSING YOU TO GAIN WEIGHT

Constant stress makes your adrenal glands over-produce cortisol which leads to the storing of belly fat and weight gain, preventing weight loss.

#3: REDUCES BLOAT AND WATER RETENTION

Not keeping your body hydrated, out of whack hormones, and food sensitivities (gluten and dairy among others) can trap water weight in your body and tissues, making you feel awful and mask weight loss.

#4: PROVIDES YOUR BODY WITH THE RIGHT KIND OF FATS TO HELP YOU BURN UNWANTED FAT

Most of us eat too many of the wrong kind of fats (coconut oils, avocado, Omega 6) and not enough of the right kind of essential fats like Omega 3. To make matters worse, we supplement with non-purified Omega 3 fats. You know the ones; the over-the-counter, cheaper brands that contain toxins that clog your liver and make you feel awful, yet fail to provide your body with the Omega 3 you need in the amounts needed for optimal health and promote fat loss.

Eating the wrong kind of fat is not only bad for you, making you unhealthy, it also prevents weight loss and blocks the body from burning off stored fat.

Did you know: 80% of Americans are deficient in the essential fats responsible for melting belly fat, brain health, reducing hunger and cravings, reducing and balancing blood sugar levels, and reducing inflammation (all "itis" conditions are caused by inflammation)?

#5: REDUCES AND BALANCES INSULIN LEVELS

It's not only the refined carbs like bread, wraps, rice, and pasta, but also some of "health" foods that contain harmful insulin spiking ingredients, including gluten (yes, it's everywhere). Juicing or eating excessive fruits, or eating the wrong kind of fruits that spike insulin levels, will stop your body from burning off stored fat. 

#6: IMPROVES GUT AND INTESTINAL FLORA AND RESTORES THE MISSING GUT MICROBES

Most cleanses simply strip your body and throw gut flora out of balance. The LynFit Metabolic Boosting Cleanse does clear out the toxins and bad stuff but replaces and restores the good guys that you want to hang around in your gut for optimal health and faster easier weight loss.

Countless studies agree that your health and weight loss are linked to your gut microbes. Gut microbes (intestinal flora) play a significant role in your metabolism and fat-burning. Your bacterial eco-system helps to control your weight, cravings, and hunger. This cleanse plan works better than any other cleanse or diet for this very reason. It not only cleanses and detoxes but more importantly, it also improves and restores gut health thanks to the LynFit Raspberry Ketone Cleanse and Restore, leaving your body better than it was before. You’ll feel better, look better, and your clothes will be loose again.

#7: IMPROVES DIGESTION

Poor digestion affects every aspect of your health, especially weight loss. A sluggish metabolism is often a sign of sluggish impaired digestion, which is why frequent cleansing is so important for all of us.

This cleanse doesn’t destroy digestion the way other cleanses can; it improves it by improving the quality of bile that’s produced. Poor quality bile keeps your body from digesting fats which impact weight gain because what’s not digested is stored as fat and clogs up your system.

Impaired digestion also depletes your body of the benefits you receive from the good fats like the LynFit Pure Omega 3 delivers. Without the benefits of good fats, your memory can suffer. In fact, it affects everything; you’ll notice low energy, memory loss, aches, pains, lackluster hair, skin, and nails. These are all signs that your digestive system needs a boost, and that’s exactly what you'll get when you do this cleanse!

#8: BOOSTS SLUGGISH THYROID FUNCTION

Anyone older than 35 (for some overweight individuals, this happens at a much younger age) struggles with low thyroid function, which decreases your metabolism (it's why you start gaining weight for no reason). Even worse, it can cause your body to overproduce insulin, which is why anyone with hypothyroidism, post and pre-menopausal women, and even men after a certain age struggle to lose weight and melt off that stubborn body and belly fat (love handles). 

Sadly, it gets worse. Elevated insulin also causes intense cravings for carbs and the wrong kind of food that deter your weight loss. It's a vicious cycle until you stop and reboot your system.

You're gonna love LynFit Thyro-Boost! It helps all of this because it's full of natural, adaptogenic herbs that help where needed. And, it won't hurt you if it's not needed, so you can take it safely even if you're on medications.

#9: DEBUGS YOUR SYSTEM

The same way your computer act negatively when they get bugs and viruses, your metabolism and body are the same. That’s why it's critical to debug your system frequently. Researchers believe that bugs and parasitic developments in our bodies may be partly responsible for the obesity epidemic and insulin resistance; including Type 2 Diabetes.

The LynFit Metabolic Boosting Cleanse specifically address this issue by decreasing the bad bugs and increasing the good ones that help keep the bad guys away. 

#10: BOOSTS MAGNESIUM AND OTHER IMPORTANT NUTRIENT LEVELS 

Nutrition plays a huge role in weight loss and vibrant health. This metabolic boosting cleanse takes that very seriously; that’s why it's full of magnesium, the superstar nutrient that's responsible for turning food into fuel, hence the reason it keeps your system regular. Without enough of the right nutrients, you lack a critical component that flips the fat burning switch on and operating efficiently.

So, in simple terms, what really makes the LynFit Metabolic Boosting Cleanse different than every other cleanse?

The answer to that is as simple as it gets! Lets's review:

You can continue to eat and live in the real world while not slowing down your metabolism.

It nourishes and restores your body's gut flora vs. destroying it, so it nourishes your body from the inside out leaving you feeling better than before without harming you in the process. You also won't need to worry about being close to the bathroom like you do with other cleanses  :)

This Cleanse nourishes and restores instead of being harsh and stripping nutrients away, depleting your body of essential nutrients as other cleanses may do.

With the LynFit Metabolic Boosting Cleanse, you get to eat a healthy meal each day and eat real food vs. processed yucky powdered stuff that tastes terrible and lacks nutrition.

It's a quick-start, modified liquid fast and detox where you will see significant results within 48 hours. This sets the stage for fat loss with the strategic use of specific metabolic boosting, natural supplements that cleanse, lower blood sugar, and boost thyroid function that prevents the metabolic shutdown that can occur when calories are lowered.

The best part? Enjoy delicious, metabolic boosting, cortisol lowering smoothies, slimming soups, and salads, made with thermogenic spices and good-for-you fats.

This is a cleanse you can live on that promotes fat-burning and restores your system.

STEP BY STEP, POUND BY POUND, INCH BY INCH!

The secret to getting what you want is getting started; taking the first step. You've taken the first step by simply reading about the LynFit Metabolic Boosting Cleanse. You're getting ready to overcome the toughest obstacle and be on your way to reaching your weight loss goals and taking charge of your health. Congratulations! High Five! :)

Start right now, wherever you are, and begin by taking baby steps each day towards your weight loss goals. Don't wait until the conditions are perfect to begin. Beginning makes the conditions perfect.

Now that you've decided to jump-start your weight loss with a metabolic boosting cleanse you can stop worrying and thinking about what you’re going to do and just go do it. It’s that simple when you have a plan like this. All you have to do is follow the steps provided and focus on living your life.

So declare out loud to the universe that you're willing to let go of struggle and eager to learn through joy and get ready for the new, leaner you.

At LynFit, we believe the secret to your success is breaking your complex overwhelming tasks into small manageable ones and then starting on the first one. So we put together a list for you to follow to help get you started.

STEPS THAT GUARANTEE YOUR WEIGHT LOSS SUCCESS

  1. Read through the plan and make notes. Make a note of what you think will be difficult for you and a solution to it, as well as what you think will be easy for you.
  2. Write down your goal and post it all over your house to remind yourself why you started in the first place
  3. Weigh yourself and take a before photo (say good-bye to the struggle)
  4. Throw all of the junk "non-food” out of your house. You can’t eat it if it’s not there  :)
  5. Make a list and go shop for what you need. No time to shop? Have it delivered right to your door.
  6. Eat foods from the approved food list only
  7. Surround yourself with like-minded, positive people who share your dreams and desires. Sometimes family can be the worst when it comes to transforming your bad habits. In fact, often they are your partner in crime, and you’ll need to remind them that you love them more than ever, but you need to take care of yourself. Invite them to join you, but don't force them. Ask them politely not to bring trigger foods into the house, and provide them with ways they can help you stay on track. A little communication goes a long way here.
  8. Try to eat between the hours of 7:30 a.m. and 6 p.m., making certain there is at least three hours in-between meals to help lower blood sugar levels and promote cleansing. Your body can't cleanse if you're always eating.
  9. Drink at least ten glasses of water each day. Here's an easy-to-follow plan: One glass when you wake up, one per hour, and one before bed.
  10. Eat your veggies and only one fruit daily. Your daily goal is five cups of veggies and one ½ cup serving of fruit. Here's your plan: Add ½ cup of fruit to your morning smoothie, two cups of veggies with your lunch shake, two more at dinner, and add one serving as a snack, and you did it. You’ll feel fuller longer, and you'll be cleansed and healthy. (See the Metabolic Boosting Cleanse and Detox Plan for simple, delicious recipes)
  11. Be sure to have your two shakes daily. This is how you'll melt off the pounds and nourish your body, including your hair skin and nails.
  12. Sleep leaner. Aim for 7-8 hours of sleep nightly to help reduce cortisol levels and allow your body time to recharge. If sleep is an issue, take a 20-minute nap during the day with your feet up. Rest quietly if you can't sleep.
  13. Take your supplements regularly. Supplementing is the best way to ensure your success, so make sure to take your supplements as directed in the Plan, even if you think you don’t need them. Each one serves a specific purpose, and the most important is keeping you healthy. Set a timer on your cell phone and carry them with you wherever you go so you don’t miss a dose It's better to take your supplement late than not at all. Drop all other supplements during the cleanse for best results. Many supplements leave residue in your system that needs cleansing.
  14. Emotional cravings making it tough? Have a cup of hot tea or broth, or call a friend. In the program, we say, “Change a thought, move a muscle.” Distract yourself by taking a walk or stretching. Whatever you do, get out of the kitchen. Helpful tip: Brushing your teeth always helps.
  15. When in doubt don’t! Instead, have another Complete Protein Shake or Lean Bar. Think, “Eat clean to be lean” vs. not eating and end up binging.
  16. Embrace hunger, it’s a good sign. Don’t be afraid of it; it means your cleanse is working and your body is about to burn off stored fat. Once your body figures out that it’s the stored fat you want it to use, it will begin burning fat off, and the hunger will dissipate.

 Remember, if it doesn’t challenge you it can't change you, and it will never get easier. But you will get better at doing what it takes!

What about exercise? Weight loss is 90 percent diet and only 25 percent sweat equity, so during the cleanse it's best to focus on the cleanse and minimize exercise. Some exercise programs can increase hunger and cravings and jack up cortisol levels, which is counter-productive.

While cleansing, it's best to focus on the healthiest forms of exercise that won't make you hungrier or increase stress hormones. Enjoy it; it won't be long before you're exercising again and seeing results, thanks to this cleanse.

Walk 10,000 steps every day. Walking after your last meal and before your first shake is a great way to help your body detox and offset the symptoms you may experience while your body is detoxifying.

Stretch every day. Stretching keeps your body working order and helps your body eliminate waste. Try the LynFit Recovery Stretch; it’s the perfect way to unwind at the end of the day or start your day off right.

Ten minutes of light weight lifting or the LynFit Lean Core workout is okay; just go easy, so you don’t interfere with the cleansing process or place larger nutritional demands on your body. This is about rebooting and healing.

How long should I cleanse? We suggest two weeks, but this plan is so efficient you can do 1-2-3 weeks or as many as you choose. The more weight you have to lose, the more you may need to cleanse.

Each Cleansing Kit lasts a minimum of two weeks, and most of the supplements last for 30 days, but many people prefer to have more than two shakes daily or make the desserts in the Complete Protein Recipe Guide, so you might want to pick up an additional Complete Protein Shake. It never hurts to have extra on hand for those "what should I eat moments."

AFTER THE CLEANSE

If you lost all the weight you wanted and feel thoroughly cleansed, your body is now ready to burn fat. Progress to the Advanced Metabolic Boosting Meal Plan. If you feel you need to do another two weeks, that's fine as well. This cleanse is so good for you that you can use it as a way of life. A lot of clients cleanse 4-5 days a week and allow themselves to have an "off" meal or two, depending on their metabolisms. 

So, what are you waiting on? Go ahead; you can do it. Today you just became stronger than your excuses. 

BELIEVE. BEGIN. BECOME.

Jump-Start Your Weight Loss With A Metabolic Boosting Cleanse


CleanseIf you're thinking about starting your weight loss with a juice cleanse, think again. While juicing may be the most popular way to jump-start weight loss, it's not the best way; especially when it comes to losing weight and keeping it off. What you don't know about juicing could STOP you from losing weight and may actually be harmful to your health.

You never hear of anyone "living" a cleansing lifestyle, yet we all know intuitively that we need to eat healthier. That's what makes juicing so attractive - it's considered a quick fix. We've all been there; sick and tired of being sick and tired and know we need to change our situation, so we try to do the right thing and jump into a juice cleanse because every good diet starts with a cleanse - right?

Within the first few days, our energy disappears, and our body starts to fight against us. We feel cranky and weak, and before you know it, the cravings begin, and we have to run to the bathroom every few minutes; praying we make it in time.

Most cleanses, especially those that include juicing, aren't good for your body, don't help you lose weight long-term, and don't burn fat off your body. And, if you can't burn fat, you'll look the same, even if you have lost some weight.

So, is juicing good for you at all? The real problem with juice cleansing is that it deprives your body of healthy fats and other essential nutrients your body requires to operate. This makes you feel terrible and can also cause you to lose that hard-earned muscle, which in turn slows down your metabolism, making it even harder to lose weight or maintain what you have lost.

Why? It's due to the decrease in calories, which causes your thyroid to slow down, making it impossible to burn fat. This will amplify your symptoms of fatigue and weakness, and can even cause permanent hair loss. Those seemingly innocent cleanses can also wreck havoc on your pocketbook.  :)

I can hear you asking now, "But how; juicing has so many healthy ingredients?" 

Let's be honest; if you like the juice you're drinking, the odds are it's because it's full of sugar. Even though the sugar might be from fresh fruit, it's still sugar, and your cells don't know the difference. And, when it comes to your veggies, it's always better to chew your food. Chewing is more satisfying to the senses.

You may think you're getting a few vitamins and minerals, but the blood sugar rise isn't worth it. Besides, you're not getting as many vitamins and minerals as you think. The lack of essential fats prevents nutrients from being absorbed. 

FATTENING FACTS ABOUT JUICING

It takes 2-4 pounds of vegetables to make one (1) 16-ounce juice. If you chewed those same vegetables, it would take you days vs. that quick sugar hit. You're bathing your cells in liquid sugar when juicing like that.

A 16-ounce mixed vegetable and fruit juice (like the one you would order at Whole Foods) with beets, carrots, kale, cucumbers, apples, spinach, and celery packs about 400 calories and over 50 grams of blood sugar spiking sugar!

This excess sugar is not only stored, but it can also gather in your liver, clogging it (Isn't that why we cleanse in the first place?). It also gathers in our muscles and leads to insulin resistance, making weight loss practically impossible.

While you might get ½ of your daily requirement of Vitamin A when juicing, most people forget that Vitamin A is fat soluble; meaning it needs to be consumed with a fat if you want your body to absorb it efficiently. One-third of these liquid sugar calories are stored as fat.

This is a nightmare for diabetics, pre-diabetics, and people who struggle with Gout. It increases Gout due to the toxic acids like uric acids that are formed when our liver metabolizes fructose.

Juicing has also been known to elevate triglycerides, due to the insulin spikes, and raise blood pressure.

Bottom line: Juicing is never a good idea for weight loss and is better used for weight gain.

In my Sports Nutrition line of work, raising blood sugar is the oldest trick in the book for getting underweight people to gain weight. Give them a glass of juice, and they will eat more later. (*Note for wine drinkers: Alcohol works the same way.)

There is a smarter way to cleanse that boosts metabolism, making it easier for you to lose weight, and this cleanse melts fat!

To lose weight, you need the following nutrients:

Lean Protein to boost metabolism by 25 percent and preserve lean muscle tissue, which is responsible for keeping your metabolism revved and your moods and hormones balanced. It will also help to keep you feeling fuller longer while feeding your hair skin and nails. It's the secret to looking good and feeling great.

Essential "good for fat loss" fats like Omega 3 to help transport nutrients like Vitamins A, D, and K; among many others like the B lean vitamins that are critically important for metabolic health.

These "good for you" fats help transport the nutrients into the cells where they are utilized. These nutrients do more than boost weight loss. They are responsible for nervous system and bone health, as well as hormone production, cell membrane formation, regulation of heart rate and blood pressure; all while providing energy.

A nourished body is a healthy body, and a healthy body loses weight easier, especially if you're metabolically-challenged (have a hard time losing weight).

There is a better solution that helps jump-start weight loss faster and promotes the burning of fat, which is really what you want. It's also more affordable and delicious, so you just might decide to have one every day, making for a healthier, leaner lifestyle.

The good news is this metabolic boosting, cleansing, detox cocktail does much much more. Everyone should be doing this for health, especially if you're trying to lose weight and burn fat.

Here is your new metabolic boosting cleansing morning ritual that breaks the overnight 12-hour fast, which is why it needs to provide the essential nutrients your body needs. No more and no less.

Every good smoothie starts with the best ingredients. Prioritize protein, using Non-GMO Whey to feed muscle and skeletal tissue, boost metabolism by up to 25 percent, block cortisol (stress hormones) that cause belly fat and stop weight loss, boost mood and brain health, all while nourishing hair skin and nails.

Whey alkalizes your body and aids in the detox process without making you feel terrible.

Add in the right detox boosters that nourish better without all of the sugar and calories.

Why add detox-boosting super foods? You would have to juice over 30 pounds of produce, and you still wouldn’t come close to the nutrition found in certain super foods (found in LynFit Thyro-Boost). 

Studies show that these super food ingredients play a critical role in promoting health and wellness. They encourage your body’s natural cleansing process, helping to flush a wide variety of substances out of your body; especially heavy metals and pesticides, among other disease-causing substances (this is why we cleanse).

Further, they help control hunger, cravings, and body odor, and encourages healing, protects against cancer, and the ravages of treatment, while helping to fight against the growth of candida (also a known cause for fatigue and cravings). 

These super power foods also possess an amazing range of benefits because they contain the highest amounts of essential vitamins and nutrients needed for cardiovascular, muscular, and neural health; not to mention the Ashwagandha, that helps your body combat stress, keeping your cortisol (stress hormones) levels in check.

When you take them in liquid extract form (like in LynFit Thyro-Boost), nutrient uptake is increased, meaning they are more easily soaked up. Nutrients like iodine, among others, build up your thyroid and body, giving it the fuel it needs to send thyroid hormones throughout your entire body, stopping your metabolism from slowing down.

Everyone needs to consider taking this, even if they are not hypothyroid. This liquid extract supplement is an adaptogen, meaning your body will use it if it needs it, and won't if it doesn’t, so it does no harm.

Feeding your thyroid is like fertilizing your garden; it helps everything move a little faster and become healthier. (*Note: If you’re not hypothyroid it’s still a good idea to take LynFit Thyro-Boost. You’ll just need to take it once vs. twice a day.)

The best part about this supplement is that it’s safe to take, and actually suggested along with your medication. Be aware that your medication may work more efficiently after cleansing and using super foods so that you may need less. Be sure to tell your doctor so he or she can adjust the amount you’re taking.

Don’t let the name Thyro-Boost fool you. It’s called Thyro-Boost because it helps feed and nourish the thyroid, which is the master gland of your body. Feed it right, and it takes care of your overall health.

You'll get:

  • Protein
  • Vitamin B1
  • Vitamin B2
  • Vitamin B3
  • Copper
  • Iron
  • Iodine
  • Magnesium
  • Potassium
  • Manganese
  • A balance of Omega 6 and Omega 3 fatty acids

Plus, rich sources of antioxidants from super foods in the form of extracts, which are more potent, like:

  • Chlorophyll
  • Ashwagandha
  • Nettles
  • Black walnut
  • Spirulina
  • Shepard’s purse
  • Irish moss
  • Dulse
  • Forskolin
  • Tyrosine
  • Astralagus

The most important thing to remember when you decide to cleanse or fast is to DO NO HARM FIRST! That means providing your body with what it needs to stay healthy first. This is the best way to jump-start your weight loss and keep it off.

The truth is - every really good diet is a cleanse in disguise!

LynFit Detoxifier Protein Shake

Meet the New, Most Extreme Fat Loss Supplement Ever!

LynFit Accelerator AdvancedAfter decades of research and countless hours with my team of medical consultants, I'm very excited to announce the birth of LynFit's newest fat loss product baby.

Introducing LynFit Accelerator Advanced: A research-driven, stimulant-free, metabolic boosting fat-loss catalyst!

We've compacted LynFit Accelerator and LynFit Carb Edge into one powerful, jitterless, weight loss, fat burning supplement.

Whether you're trying to lose a lot of weight or just drop a few pesky pounds from your stomach, hips, and thighs, LynFit Accelerator Advanced is for you. Especially if you're above the age 30 mark  :)

Too often, no matter how hard we work out and diet, most of us continue to struggle to lose weight. Even if we lose weight, we can't shed fat, so we never really get to see the tight toned muscles that are underneath the layers of excess fat. Most of us are storing at least ten pounds of excess body fat, in addition to another 5–10 pounds of water weight, causing us to feel bloated and look soft and flabby.

Until now.....

The powerful, all-natural LynFit Accelerator Advanced can help make losing weight faster and easier while helping you to live lean. This revolutionary fat loss system is the strongest formula available and is physician formulated to:

    • Boost and reset your metabolism so you lose weight faster and easier
    • Help balance and reduce blood sugar levels which in turn reduces hunger and cravings
    • Help promote thyroid health so your metabolism won't slow down when you're dieting to lose weight
    • Help eliminate excess water
    • Help reduce fat and carbohydrate absorption

    LynFit Accelerator Advanced is a unique five-stage part of the LynFit multi-system approach that also includes the LynFit Lose 1 Pound Per Day Kit. It's powerful but safe and effective for both women and men. Accelerator Advanced uses the body's energy pathways and systems to promote aggressive mobilization of fat to be burned for fuel.

    SUPERIOR INGREDIENTS = SUPERIOR RESULTS

    Stage 1: Boost metabolism and gently increase energy

    LynFit Accelerator Advanced meticulously combined several carefully selected ingredients that have been clinically proven to help support fat loss and make weight loss easier. These "celebrity" herbs will be your secret weapon against stored fat.

    The combination of these ingredients makes sure your metabolism doesn't slow down as you reduce your caloric intake, helping you continue to lose weight.

      • Raspberry ketones
      • Forskolin to promote thyroid health
      • Green tea leaf extracts
      • L-Tyrosine
      • Banaba leaf extract
      • White kidney bean extract
      • Guggul extract
      • Cocoa bean extract

    Stage 2: Crush hunger and kill cravings

    LynFit Accelerator Advanced helps lower and balance blood sugar levels which is the secret to turning the cravings and hunger switch off. Better nutrient absorption means better fat burning and more energy available to you all day without the inevitable crash. This is the secret to turning your hunger and cravings off.

    Stage 3: Improve mood and motivation while improving well-being

    The natural, herbal agents used in LynFit Accelerator Advanced contribute to an improved sense of well-being. It enhances your mood by supporting healthy brain function and endurance by providing the nourishment your brain and body need to get through the day so you won't need to keep reaching for sugar.  :)

    Sticking to a weight loss plan is challenging; LynFit Accelerator Advanced can make it easier by helping you to feel better the same day you begin taking it.

    Stage 4: Reduce excess water to beat bloat

    LynFit Accelerator Advanced helps beat the bloat and keep water in the right places, where your body needs it most by re-partitioning nutrients for better absorption. Better nutrient absorption means you won't feel water being retained. Water retention can make you feel horrible and make you look flabby and soft. Eliminating water is a key ingredient for a tight, lean appearance.

    It's all about circulation, which is great for your overall health.

    Stage 5: Block the absorption of carbs (sugar) and fat with a specialized combination of ingredients that includes white kidney bean extract

    LynFit Accelerator Advanced contains specific ingredients that help block 65 percent of the unwanted carbs and fats from being absorbed, without harmful side effects. This helps balance blood sugar levels.

    Taking white kidney bean extract allows you to "get away" with a little more. It's like you can eat more but absorb less. But remember, successful weight loss begins with making better choices, including daily activity. It never hurts to have a little insurance, however.

    All of these stages, comprised together, form the most complete fat loss catalyst ever; the LynFit Accelerator Advanced!

    WHO SHOULD TAKE LYNFIT ACCELERATOR ADVANCED?
    Anyone who needs extra weight loss support or struggles with hunger, cravings, depression, and anxiety. If you could use a little balanced energy throughout the day. Anyone who wants to beat the bloat.

    Take one (1) capsule at breakfast and another at lunch. 

    LynFit Accelerator Advanced replaces and is a combination of, the LynFit Accelerator and LynFit Carb Edge, so you should choose either one. Don't take both at the same time.

    The Accelerator Advanced Meal Plan is designed to specifically incorporate Accelerator Advanced into your daily weight loss supplement regimen.

    HOW LONG SHOULD I TAKE LYNFIT ACCELERATOR ADVANCED?
    There is no limit on the time you may take it. Due to its mood-boosting enhancement, some people never stop taking it.

    Super Bowl Survival Without Gaining a Pound

    Super Bowl Survival
    Surviving the Super Bowl without gaining a pound isn't as difficult as you might think.

    While there are many different weight loss solutions out there, the best way to combat weight gain is to boost your metabolism. By boosting your metabolic engine you'll be burning more calories by the time you walk into your Super Bowl party or indulge from your couch. And, those not-so-healthy calories won't show up on your scale the morning after.

    Boosting your metabolism for the Super Bowl requires a three-step metabolic gameplan — boost at breakfast and again at lunch for maximum prevention; then again pre-game (30 minutes or one hour prior to game time).

    METABOLIC BOOST #1: YOUR FIRST DOWN PLAY

    Boost your metabolism the morning of and the morning after by drinking a LynFit Metabolic Boosting Whey Protein Shake, made with water and ice, exactly 12 hours after your last meal. Save on calories by flavoring your shake with non-caloric ingredients like vanilla or coconut extracts or black coffee. But don't add fruit, milk or juices as they will spike your blood sugar and make it easier to gain weight. You don't need any additional calories so save yourself the trouble and keep your shake simple.

    I'd recommend trying the LynFit Energizer Protein Shake. I know you'll love it! I enjoy eating the froth with a spoon for a little trick play. Additionally, drinking a LynFit Complete Protein Shake blocks cortisol levels from rising, which can cause weight gain. The Super Bowl can be stressful enough as is without adding more stress to it.

    The Energizer Protein Shake

    With your morning LynFit Complete Protein Shake, take these supplements to turn off the weight gain switch:

    METABOLIC BOOST #2: YOUR SECOND DOWN PLAY

    At brunch/lunch on game day, repeat your first down play by drinking a LynFit Complete Protein Shake made with water and ice and take these supplements:

    • (1) LynFit Accelerator
    • (1) LynFit Carb Edge
    • (1) LynFit Cutting Edge

      NOTE: If you're taking LynFit Accelerator Advanced, take that instead of the LynFit Accelerator and LynFit Carb Edge

    GAME-CHANGING METABOLIC BOOST #3: YOUR THIRD DOWN SCORING PLAY

    In football, the third down play is the most critical. And with your Super Bowl Survival, it's no different. This is the money down. It's time to go for the score.

    One hour before kickoff, or before you leave for your party, hit repeat and drink a LynFit Complete Protein Shake with water and ice and take these supplements:

    • (1) LynFit Accelerator
    • (1) LynFit Carb Edge
    • (1) LynFit Cutting Edge

      NOTE: If you're taking LynFit Accelerator Advanced, take that instead of the LynFit Accelerator and LynFit Carb Edge

    By following this Super Bowl survival gameplan you are protecting yourself from weight gain as well as enhancing your health. It's like eating a little more but absorbing a little less.

    You can add in a little flea-flicker play to catch the opponent (weight gain) off guard as well. Take 2–3 LynFit Raspberry Ketone Cleanse right before you start eating. You'll wake up feeling less bloated and you'll be right on track with your weight loss. Hit replay the next morning and you're set up for success.

    As with any hard-fought game, the morning after may require some recovery. Try my LynFit Fat-Melting Flat White Complete Protein Shake for a fast recovery for a food or alcohol hangover.

    Boost Nutrient Intake to Improve Weight Loss & Melt Belly Fat

    Boost Your Nutrient Intake

    Losing weight and exercising can make us feel exhausted, hungry, and cranky. And, if you're one of those people who think they don't need to take supplements, you'll want to hear this.

    According to a study in the Journal of the American College of Nutrition, 40 percent of adults are low in some nutrients. This study also found that overweight people consumed up to 12 percent fewer vitamins and minerals compared to adults of a healthy weight. These vitamin deficiencies contribute to the underlying issues that can make losing weight seemingly impossible.

    Lack of energy, intense hunger, cravings for the wrong kinds of foods, low thyroid output and function, and hormonal imbalance (including high blood sugar levels) all play a role in our weight loss or lack of.

    The study also proves that these vitamin deficiencies could be making you fat. Vitamins A and D are essential for weight loss and keeping the weight off. They help regulate hunger hormones and govern fat cells. Some nutrients dictate whether we store fat or burn it off.

    Shedding pounds shouldn’t mean shedding nutrition. Our nutrient intake increases when we change our eating and exercise habits to lose weight (yes, even when it's for the better). Without realizing it, we might inadvertently cut out essential nutrients, and that sabotages weight loss success and undermines health and well-being.

    These deficits in vitamins, minerals, and essential nutrients can make us feel terrible, suffer from exhaustion, depressed, and anxious. Additionally, it can lead to joint aches and pain associated with slow healing injuries, like an old football injury, which keeps you up at night, preventing you from working out. They can also lead to undesirable effects that hinder your weight loss efforts by making it harder to stick to a healthy eating regimen.

    The solution can be as simple as taking LynFit Daily Power Shot (it contains over 90 essential nutrients, vitamins, and minerals) and drinking at least one LynFit Complete Protein Shake (it got its name because it contains all of the amino acids your body and brain needs, in exactly the amount needed) each day.

    Here are a few solutions to health problems that will help you feel better the same day you start. You'll find it easier to stay strong, motivated, happier, and healthier during your weight loss journey.

    YOU STRUGGLE WITH HUNGER AND CRAVE THE WRONG FOODS

    The #1 reason we struggle with hunger and crave the wrong foods is that we undereat the right kind of protein and overeat the wrong kind. It's easy to conquer your cravings and fend off overeating and keep yourself on track losing weight by supplementing your diet. 

    Protein and fiber help you feel full longer due to them taking a while to be completely digested, so they remain in the stomach longer than other foods. This nourishes the body and brain with what they need and helps stabilize blood sugar levels. In turn, reducing cravings and turning off hunger.

    For most who struggle with weight loss, this can be difficult to do unless you have a tool like LynFit Complete Protein Shake or LynFit Lean Bars. I find most of us who live in the real world either don't eat, or we eat the wrong things.

    I suggest keeping an abundant supply of the right kind of proteins on hand that boost metabolism such as LynFit Complete Protein Shake and Lean Bars, and tuna packets, instead of relying on nuts, cheeses, or yogurts that are not complete proteins and may stop you from losing weight.

    Keep fiber-rich snacks on hand like celery instead of carrots, grapefruits and green apples instead of bananas and other high sugar fruits that spike insulin levels. These foods are the best options when it comes to regulating hunger between meals.

    HYDRATE YOUR BODY WITH H2O TO BOOST METABOLISM BY 3 PERCENT

    Only 22 percent of us drink the suggested 8–10 cups of water daily. And, 75 percent of Americans suffer from chronic dehydration. Water is critical for more than your metabolism; it also helps keep your digestive system—not to mention your entire body—functioning well. Most importantly, it also helps you feel full.

    An Institute for Public Health and Water Research study recently showed that participants who drank two cups of water before a meal ate fewer calories than people who drank no water at all. Water also helps energize our muscles and helps to keep them pliable which can reduce aches and pains caused from tight, stiff muscles. Cells that don't maintain their balance of fluids and electrolytes shrivel, so if you want to look and feel better drink up!

    YOU FEEL WEAK AND TIRED

    A daily, sustainable exercise and healthy eating lifestyle will inject new energy into every aspect of your life. However, if you find that you feel exhausted and weak, you may have some nutritional deficiencies that can be easily fixed with smart, consistent use of the right supplements. 

    Most people don't realize that weight loss and exercise create an increased demand for nutrients on the body, and if we aren't supplementing our diets correctly, imbalances are more than likely to occur. Here are the most overlooked nutrients and the simple solutions to filling in your nutrient gaps.

    Iron

    Iron deficiency is the most common nutritional deficiency worldwide. Iron metabolism is unusual because it is controlled by absorption which is why it's best to supplement to ensure that your body gets what it needs and can readily absorb it.

    LynFit takes this seriously, and that's why we created LynFit Daily Power Shot and LynFit Thyro-Boost in liquid form. Both of these products contain organic sources of iron because that's the way Iron is absorbed best. When nutrients are absorbed better, they won't " build up" the way other forms of iron can.

    A lack of Iron may cause hormonal imbalance because it inhibits the production of female hormones such as progesterone and estrogen. This imbalance makes you feel tired and out of breath and your health suffers greatly.

    Iron helps your body transport oxygen through the bloodstream and is an essential mineral for metabolism and energy. A lack of iron in the diet means your muscles aren’t storing and using oxygen efficiently and may lead to anemia and feelings of extreme exhaustion. I strongly suggest that everyone who is exercising, losing weight, or under stress, supplement with LynFit Daily Power Shot and LynFit Thyro-Boost to ensure adequate intake.

    Here are a few symptoms caused by inadequate iron intake:

    • Fatigue and weakness 
    • Pale skin and gums 
    • Breathlessness 
    • Insomnia 
    • Heart palpitations 
    • Feeling cold 
    • Brittle hair 
    • Slowed mental reactions/cognitive function 
    • White spots on your fingernails

    So if you've been feeling tired, and you get out if breath easily, you may need to be more vigilant about getting adequate iron. But getting your iron intake isn't as easy as grabbing any old iron supplement off the shelf or chowing down on a steak (red meat has too much fat for weight loss). It's all about how your body absorbs the nutrients, not how much to take in.

    Most pharmacy and store-bought iron supplements are synthetic forms of iron, derived from oxides and heavy metals. They are not as readily absorbed and may lead to constipation which in turn makes you feel even worse.

    The solution is to get your iron needs met by consuming organic, botanical sources (like the iron in LynFit Daily Power Shot or Thyro-Boost) instead because they are easier to digest, better absorbed, and therefore more usable by the body.

    LynFit Tip: Take 2–3 droppers of LynFit Thyro-Boost throughout the day, or simply add it to your LynFit Complete Protein Shake each day

    The B Vitamins

    B vitamins are necessary for cell metabolism and energy production. In fact, nearly every cell in the body uses them to create energy. 

    Vitamin B-12 is particularly important to energy production, and a deficiency can lead to anemia, according to the National Institutes of Health. Since your body does not make vitamin B-12 on its own, you need to consume it regularly. You can get B-12 from animal-based foods like fish, lean meat, poultry or eggs, as well as from supplements such as LynFit Daily Power Shot and LynFit Accelerator.  

    LynFit TIP: Take one (1) ounce of LynFit Daily Power Shot each day when you get up or mid-morning when you need it most.

    YOU'RE CRABBY

    Giving up our not-so-good habits and making lifestyle changes can change your mood as well as your emotional outlook. It's a good sign that you're doing something different, and that's a good thing. It's how we make changes and get results. If you feel

    If you feel agitated, frustrated, angry, or like you can't control your emotions, improving your sleep habits can help you regain balance and improve mood.

    Sleep is crucial, especially when it comes to weight management, which includes daily exercise. Recent research suggests chronic sleep deprivation may increase the likelihood of weight gain and leave you feeling irritable, stressed, and craving the wrong kinds of foods.

    A study in the American Journal of Epidemiology showed women who slept five hours or fewer per night had a 15 percent higher risk of becoming obese. If you’re having trouble falling asleep or maintaining a regular sleep schedule, consider adding LynFit Lean Sleep with Melatonin to your night time supplement regimen along with LynFit Pure Omega 3

    Melatonin supplements the melatonin your body produces naturally to help maintain your internal clock and sleep cycle. Most of us are severely lacking in melatonin, and our sleep patterns are disrupted due to the amount of time we spend in front of computer screens, cell phones, and watching TV. We do not spend enough time outside in daylight which affects our circadian rhythms and wrecks our sleep quality.

    I suggest that everyone takes 1–2 LynFit Lean Sleep with Melatonin and one (1) LynFit Pure Omega 3. You'll have the best nights sleep ever.

    LynFit Tip: I suggest keeping your LynFit Lean Sleep and LynFit Pure Omega next to your toothbrush, so you don't forget to take them. Take one (1) Lean Sleep and one (1) Pure Omega at 9 p.m. or before you go to bed. Take another Pure Omega 3 when you wake up and brush your teeth. You'll not only sleep better, but the Pure Omega 3 will help your body heal.

    LYNFIT BONUS — A DELICIOUS LYNFIT COMPLETE PROTEIN RECIPE

    Blueberry Dream (Clafoutis)

    Blueberry Dream

    After visiting France with my family, you can bet we came back with a few new not-so-healthy habits. We loved this dessert so much I decided to give it a metabolic makeover so we can eat it whenever we feel like it. 

    Clafoutis (French pronunciation: [klafuti]) is a baked French dessert of fruit that’s traditionally made with black cherries and arranged in a buttered loaf pan or dish and covered with a thick flan-like batter. Clafoutis are almost always dusted with powdered sugar and served lukewarm, sometimes with cream, which is a diet deal-breaker — until now. This recipe transforms clafoutis into a thermogenic dessert for under 90 calories!

    Prep time: 5 minutes 
    Cooking time: 20 minutes
    Serves: 2

    Ingredients

    The Best Protein for Weight Loss and Health


    If you're not losing weight and melting off belly fat, your protein choices may be to blame. Here's the "411" on why whey protein is the best when it comes to weight loss and melting off stored fat.

    Some proteins can boost metabolism and speed up weight loss, while others may slow it down and stop weight loss from occurring at all. Certain proteins have been used by people looking to add bulk and gain weight, and it's critical that you know the difference between the two, allowing you to choose the protein that's right for you, helping you reach your goals. LynFit Complete Protein is not only the best tasting whey protein, but it also provides the best health and nutrition benefits.

    Protein is an essential nutrient when it comes to keeping your body healthy and maintaining our busy lifestyles; yet, most of us are deficient in it. This sets us up for lackluster health and slows our metabolism. But before you grab that pre-made (ready to drink) protein shake, you're going to want to know all of the miraculous things this nutrient can do for you and how to choose the right kind.

    You'll also need to know how much and when you should consume it for maximum weight loss and health boost. More importantly, why LynFit Complete Protein does this better than any other protein you can buy. 

    PREVENTS HUNGER AND KILLS CRAVINGS

    When it comes to killing cravings and preventing hunger, nothing satisfies like protein. Since protein takes longer to digest it makes you feel fuller longer; great news if you're trying to lose or maintain your weight, especially if you're prone to snacking on unhealthy snacks. A recent study in Nutrition Research (please site ) also reported that people who consumed 24 grams of whey protein reported feeling fuller and consumed

    A recent study in Nutrition Research reported that people who consumed 24 grams of whey protein daily reported feeling fuller and consumed fewer calories during the day than those who drank other forms of protein. Whey helps to prevent the blood sugar dips that signal hunger and promote cravings.

    BEATS BLOAT AND MELTS BELLY FAT BEST

    Whey protein manages your middle better and beats bloat while melting off that stubborn belly fat. Whey's sophisticated structure causes your body to takes calories and burn them as heat rather than storing them as fat. But that's not all; whey has been known to reduce blood sugar, which can also trigger high blood pressure, playing a critical role in decreasing and preventing blood sugar issues. including helping to

    Additionally, whey helps manage diabetic blood sugar issues and helps to increase blood amino acids that prevent muscle loss, helping keep your metabolism running at optimum speed, which prevents weight gain.
    *NOTE: Diabetes is serious health problem linked to obesity, heart attack, and stroke. That's why choosing the right protein shake is critical when it comes to protecting your health. European Journal of Clinical Nutrition, 67:749-753, 2013

    HELPS PREVENT THE WEIGHT GAIN CAUSED BY STRESS

    In order to lose weight, we must control our cortisol levels. Excess cortisol can prevent weight loss and make it harder to keep the pounds off. Cortisol breaks down muscle tissue which slows down our metabolic rate and increases our body fat which becomes a metabolic nightmare.

    LynFit whey protein has a reputation for being the best food when it comes to preventing cortisol levels from rising.

    Cortisol levels are also associated with bone loss, and while we can't prevent stress in our lives, we can do something to combat its effects — drink a LynFit Whey Protein Shake or eat a LynFit Lean Bar each day.

    LYNFIT COMPLETE PROTEIN POWERS UP YOUR ENERGY BETTER THAN JUICING

    Energy comes from getting the right combination of nutrients, and protein is one of the most important nutrients when it comes to sustainable energy.

    While most of us tend to crave carbs when we need quick energy (that's why we tend to reach for simple carbs), we often forget that these simple carbs also send us crashing shortly after, sending us to look for more food shortly after, despite the fact that we just ate. 

    It's life-changing once you remember that protein is the better choice. It takes your body longer to digest protein, and in return, it provides long lasting balanced energy, keeping you feeling full, helping to prevent hunger and cravings for the wrong kind of foods.

    Studies show that eating or drinking whey protein daily as a part of a diet that's low in fat and cholesterol, can help maintain a healthy heart. After all, your heart is a muscle too.

    SO CLEAN IT FEEDS LEAN MUSCLE

    Protein is the fuel of choice for your muscles and it helps preserve this precious tissue while promoting fat burning. Everyday activities such as carrying grocery bags and walking all take muscle.

    Muscles need the specific amino acids found in "complete" protein to perform, as well as repair after a workout. Additionally, chronic everyday stress, illness, or injury increases your protein needs. Bottom line, our body can't heal properly unless we provide the right kind of nutrients that help it repair, hence preserving the muscle.

    LynFit Whey Protein is made from the highest quality source of whey protein, all thanks to its purity and the fact that it doesn't contain added carbs, fillers, fats, or other inferior ingredients such as dairy or vegetarian sources.

    How do you know if your protein does all of this? That's simple — if it doesn't say LynFit, it probably doesn't, especially if you purchased it in a store.
    LynFit Tip: Your body’s ability to absorb protein and other nutrients is at its peak shortly after you work out or any type physical activity, such as mowing the lawn, shopping, or simply cleaning the house. If you drink a Protein Shake or eat a Lean Bar you'll help your body to be more toned and healthy so you can keep moving and look good doing it.

    HELPS SLOW THE AGING PROCESS

    Protein helps build muscle, and as we age, we tend to lose muscle tone and strength. But, that can be prevented if you eat sufficient amounts of the right kind of protein every day. Consuming the right amount of protein, spaced throughout your day, is the best way to prevent muscle loss from happening in the first place. And it might also slow down the loss of muscle mass when you are sick or under stress.

    It's recommended that we consume 24–27 grams of lean protein at each meal and combine that with weight lifting /resistance training two times per week to maintain strength, boost health and metabolism for the rest of your life.

    HELPS BOOST MOOD, EASE ANXIETY AND DEPRESSION, WHILE BOOSTING IMMUNITY

    Whey protein contains the exact amount of amino acids needed to increase levels of serotonin and regulate the hormones that can wreak havoc on our body, causing symptoms like depression, anxiety, and illness.

    We are what we eat every day, and this is even more important when it comes to our mood and mental well-being.

    Who needs whey? Everyone!

    Kids need protein as they grow for strong muscles and bones (including teeth). Protein is more important for your kid's development than you might realize. But just because they need it doesn't mean you'll get them to eat it. That's where LynFit Protein Shakes and Lean Bars come in.

    They can help kids, especially active ones, or kids that suffer from stress, to get enough of the right kind of protein. LynFit's line of Complete Protein products is delicious and nutrient-packed. LynFit Shakes and Lean Bars are simply the best choices. Martha Stewart was my taste tester, and she knows a thing or two about good taste.

    The latest research shows that higher levels of protein are needed for adults age 65+ to prevent muscle loss that accelerates with aging. It's suggested that older adults double up their protein intake for better health.  Adding these sophisticated forms of protein is the best way to boost health while keeping your cholesterol and blood pressure in check.

    A LynFit Whey Protein Shake or Lean Bar a day is the best way to keep the doctor away. Apples can't even compare!

    Kick Hunger and Cravings to the Curb


    Tired of making the same weight loss resolutions every year, only to watch them slowly fade away? 

    The secret to your weight loss resolution is kicking hunger and cravings to the curb, and the best way to do that is increase your protein intake.

    Eating high protein foods helps suppress appetite-controlling hormones

    The hypothalamus in the brain controls appetite and satiety (fullness). Hormones secreted by our body, high blood sugar levels, and stress all play a role in making us feel hungry and cause cravings that we can't always control.

    Dietary proteins strongly influence these, which helps explain why protein intake is so important for weight loss as well as maintaining lean muscle tissue. When you're dieting, rule #1 is feed the muscle but starve the fat, so it leaves.

    A study from the University of Copenhagen in Denmark found that the protein content of our meals had a strong influence on hunger hormones.

    Increasing protein can be as easy as enjoying a high-protein breakfast to kill cravings before they begin. LynFit Pure Whey makes this easy to do and at the same time, saving you time and money. Pure whey also gives your metabolism a boost, helping you lose weight easier.

    How much protein do you need per day? You need one (1) gram per pound of lean body mass or your goal weight. If you want to weight 120 pounds, aim for 120 grams per day. When you are losing weight, stressed, or working out, your protein needs are slightly higher to preserve lean muscle tissue that keeps your metabolism revved.

    You want to aim for 24 grams of lean protein four (4) times daily. This almost gets you to your goal. If you add the protein that is found in other foods you'll nail your goal.

    • 24 grams = one serving of protein 
    • One (1) serving of protein is usually 3 oz., however. This can vary (white fish may be 4 oz.) 
    • White fish is better than chicken for weight loss and if you like larger portions, choose fish over chicken

    Protein examples:

    • Chicken breast 
    • Fish 
    • Shrimps 
    • Two (2) scoops of LynFit Whey Protein
    • LynFit Lean Bar 
    • Egg whites

    If you're busy, nailing your numbers isn't easy unless you have the right tools. That's where having the right protein shake or protein bar is the secret to your success. A LynFit Lean Bar a day helps keep hunger and cravings away!

    Make 2017 the Year of a New, Leaner You!



    More than half of the country’s population has already made their New Year’s resolutions and are ready to put them into action to help them become healthier (by losing weight) and happier. Statistics say more than 90 percent of resolutions fail, despite the best of intentions.

    If you want to be part of the 10 percent that succeed, you’ll need to know how to overcome the obstacles that stand in your way, preventing you from reaching your goals. These techniques will help you win the fight when it comes to reaching your goals.

    There are some common mistakes almost all of us make when it comes to our diets, stopping fat loss and preventing us from losing weight. No matter what type of plan, your body needs these clean eating rules, backed by science, that apply to each of us.
    (NOTE: If you’re over age 35, your metabolism is slowing down while we speak. So listen up, this applies in particular to you.)

    Losing weight can be fast and easy if you think replacement vs. deprivation when it comes to addressing your not-so-healthy eating habits. And, we all know how long depriving ourselves lasts — not very long.

    The Good News? These simple solutions can help you bust through your toughest weight loss challenges, no matter how old you are or how stubborn your metabolism is. You’ll not only lose more weight in less time; you’ll melt fat from those hard to reach places like the stomach, hips, and thighs. You'll do it without spending hours in the gym, or those dreadful juice cleanses that spike your blood sugar, making you even more ravenous than you were before you started.

    If this is the year you promised yourself that you were going to do it, get ready, because these simple solutions are guaranteed to get you there. No more excuses! You're going to set a goal (be specific, such as 7 pounds in 7 days), and commit yourself 100 percent to work at it and achieve it.

    Are you feeling determined and ready to lose a pound per day? If so, it's time to challenge yourself and take on the LynFit 7-Day Weight Loss Challenge.

    LynFit Weight Loss Challenge

    We've got 7 days of healthy, lean living challenges to help get you back on track fast, losing weight and melting fat. This 7-Day Weight Loss Challenge will help you become a weight loss expert by teaching you how to lose weight and keep it off. These lean living tips will help you accomplish all your 2017 health goals; from lowering blood sugar or cholesterol levels, to decreasing your inflammation. No excuses!

    Weight loss is 90 percent diet and only 20 percent sweat equity, so it’s best to focus on your eating habits. You don’t need a diet; you need a lifestyle. The best way to clean up yours is to replace some of the not-so-good habits that are stopping you from reaching your goals. You may not even be aware they are negatively affecting your weight loss because of the affect these seemingly harmless habits have on your blood sugar levels, causing your body to become resistant to weight loss. It's also why diabetes and pre-diabetes numbers are skyrocketing at a faster pace than the national debt.

    It's not how much you work out or how often you wear that FitBit® or go to CrossFit® class, that will help you lose weight — it's your diet.  

    Here are the Top Three mistakes people make that prevent them from losing weight:

    1. They don’t pay attention to their meal timing.
      Slimming Solution: Time your meals. Plan to eat all of your meals between the hours of 8 a.m. and 8 p.m. This allows for a 12-hour fast every night, which is best for anti-aging and boosts weight loss. Meal timing is paramount, and it's best to aim for three meals and one snack daily.

    2. They drink way too much sugar.
      Slimming Solution: Replace those sugar-spiking juices and gourmet coffees with a cleaner, metabolic boosting, and much more delicious Double Chocolate Mocha Latte. This one simple change can help you lose 7 pounds in 7 days because of its nourishing properties that help lower blood sugar levels, block cortisol (the stress hormone that wreaks havoc on our waistlines), and boost metabolism by 25 percent.

    3. They overcomplicate their workouts and push themselves too hard, which makes them even hungrier.
      Slimming Solution: Treat a weight loss workout like brushing your teeth. Do it daily and make it such a habit that you can do it without thinking about it.

      These moves keep your body in working order by strengthening it as we get older.

      Warning: These moves do not require any equipment or expensive gyms, so you save time and money and get fitter fast. You’ll spend the time you normally would driving to the gym getting it done instead. This is the "no excuse" workout that anyone can do anywhere anytime. It's better if you incorporate these moves into your day.

      + Chair Squats
      + Door jam, counter top or desk push ups *Can be done on one leg for balance
      + Chair Dips
      + Chair Crunch a la Frog kick style or Crunch with your legs on chair
      + One Legged Side raises

      Aim for 10 of each and increase reps as it gets easier. You can also do a super slow technique and focus on the squeeze.

    Don’t forget; lean bodies are not made in the gym, they are made in the kitchen. There is no reason to kill yourself or risk getting injured to get in shape. This is the year of working smarter not harder!  

    This is the year you're going to do it. Are you feeling determined? All you have to do is follow the plan each day.
