Five Secrets To Help You Lose Weight While On Vacation

It's important to understand that the way you eat will determine if you lose weight or gain weight. Vacation is no exception. In fact, a vacation should be a time of taking care of yourself, inside and out.

Every day I hear the excuses: "Work is so busy I just can't eat right or find the time to exercise." The good news is these are actions we get to choose. Choose health and you'll not only feel better, you'll lose weight. Even on vacation.

I've been traveling a lot the past few months, and I've never been lighter. In fact, I've had to increase my caloric intake when I'm home to compensate because I've gotten so good at my travel routine. I lose too much weight (I never thought I would say that) when I travel.

Here are my Top Five secrets to losing weight while on vacation this summer:

Use Your Travel Time As A Cleansing Time

It doesn't matter whether you're driving or flying, you aren't exercising and need fewer calories, so eat less. Personally, I get motion sick, so I don't eat while traveling to and from while flying or driving if possible. For those extra-long flights or drives, I only eat a LynFit Lean Bar and drink loads of water.

Don't Be Afraid To Be Hungry - It's Good For You

Whatever we keep in our environment is what we'll eat so don't stock up on munchies. No one needs to be eating all day long. Not even your kids. Go back to the no-eating in between meals, especially if you will be eating out. Eating out always means more calories than you planned on, even if you're eating healthy choices.

Hunger means your body is about to start burning fat for fuel. You won't lose weight until you come to grips with this. A side note here: Starving is when you are underweight on the doctor's scale and going all day without eating. Eat according to my plans. You'll be providing your body with enough fuel to sustain life versus not providing nourishment by not eating all day long or eating foods that are full of excess calories, yet provide no nutrition whatsoever.

Don't Leave Home Without It

The LynFit Complete Protein Shake silly!

It's funny how we make excuses why we can't bring it (the Complete Protein Shakes) on vacation yet we make any excuse necessary to bring or eat all the wrong foods. I put my Complete Protein in zip lock bags, portioned out for every day. Then all I have to do is put the zip lock in my purse. 

Here's a "Lisa Yummy Trick".....I give my Complete Protein to the bartender at the hotel and ask him or her to blend it up for me. I love it with ice and coffee - a Lean Mocha. This way I don't feel deprived at all. In fact, there have been times when the people standing around the bar have asked for a taste and didn't believe it was healthy.

Go On The Seafood Diet And Double Your Weight Loss

If you have read my book, "The Metabolism Solution", you learned that eating more fish or particular types of fish, compared to chicken, doubles your weight loss.

You can have a Complete Protein Shake for breakfast to boost your metabolism 25 percent (did you know the shake did that?) and offset the "not-so-good" calories we all end up eating from time to time. Then for lunch you can have a tossed salad with no cheese and use vinegar as your dressing with some shrimp for a light enjoyable meal. 

Dinner should be about fish, salad, and vegetables. You should try to eat early. After all, it's your vacation, so you have control. Eat early the way our bodies are designed to and go to bed hungry! If you don't wake up hungry in the morning, you ate too much. If you have to, split an entree and if all else fails just have salad and a shrimp cocktail versus an entree with sides that may tempt you.

Turbocharge Your Weight Loss Without Stepping Foot In The Gym

I like to get up early and exercise or take the time while my family is eating a "hearty" breakfast to exercise. This also gives the downtime we all need when traveling with our families. Spending time alone to get grounded, or as I like to call it - regulated, allows me to be a better parent and also teaches our kids and families that we all need quiet time, especially when our eating habits are out of control.

This is a great "time-in" that allows you to give yourself a pep talk and clear your mind to get your eating back on track. I like to take walks outside while on vacation, going longer and slower than I normally would to allow myself time to sight see. I never feel like I'm not enjoying it.

I also do my Metabolic Booster workout in my room while waiting for my hair to dry or for slow teens to get out of the shower. I use water bottles or rolled-up washcloths and focus on form. If needed, I'll do extra repetitions until I feel the burn. I get better workouts this way. 

Most hotels have or will bring you a DVD player so bring your DVDs. Better yet, download them onto your laptop or IPad and do the workouts in comfort and at your own pace. This is how the celebrities do it! Don't forget to get all the LynFit Metabolic downloads you'll need before you leave.

Remember, 90 percent of your weight loss is diet so even if you don't work out yet manage to keep your food clean you'll still lose weight. If you don't exercise and don't eat clean, then weight gain is unavoidable.

I use every opportunity I get as a way to eat healthier and sleep more versus eating poor and sleeping less. These behaviors are what get us in trouble in the first place. To see changes we need to make changes. Make this new routine your new normal, even when you get back home, and just watch what happens!

Here's a little bonus tip: Don't eat "off-plan" or cheat until your last day so you can't develop a new bad habit. I cheat (yes me) on my last day on any vacation. This is when I try new foods and experience the culture. If all else fails, remember the three-bite rule: You can always take three bites of something if you want to try it. Most of the time three bites will cost you about 100 calories that aren't enough to make you gain weight.

July 4th Indulgence? Slimming Metabolic Boosting Smoothies To The Rescue

Did you "indulge" over the July 4th holiday? Whether you had a barbecue or not you probably did. Even if you didn't overeat you probably had a continuous case of the munchies. Not to mention, it's summertime and sometimes that leads to a little too much liquid refreshment - if you know what I mean.

Not to worry! I'm going to let you in on two great Slimming Metabolic Boosting Smoothies that can rescue you and allow you to reclaim that summertime body you've worked so hard for. So, let's balance out your not-so-good holiday behavior with some good post-holiday behavior for the health of your body.

Are you one of those people who after a day of indulging you wake up and immediately want to grab another indulgence to make you feel better? Have I got a smoothie for you.....

The Holiday Hangover Helper Shake

Made with LynFit Chocolate Whey Protein Powder mixed with granulated coffee, this smoothie will immediately help you begin detoxing from any bad indulgences.

We hear all the time about vegetables and their super-protein but chocolate, in its pure form has just as many antioxidants, if not more, than vegetables. Antioxidants neutralize the damage done while indulging. Let's take a closer look at why LynFit Chocolate Whey Protein is so effective.

LynFit Chocolate Whey Protein is made from Chocolate Bean Powder. I just love that name - anything chocolate works for me. Chocolate Bean Powder boosts mood by raising the level of serotonin in our brains, and when we feel better we eat better and move around more. Chocolate Bean Powder contains more antioxidants than just about any other natural food. The raw cacao bean, from which the powder is made is estimated to include 30 natural compounds; including calcium, potassium, sodium, sulfur, zinc and copper, just to name a few.

Remember: this is not your standard chocolate. So don't think you can substitute half a can of Nestle's! Chocolate, milk chocolate and others used in candy, includes cocoa butter, sweeteners and many other additives. It is so highly processed that most of the benefits are removed and is not good for weight loss.

LynFit Chocolate Whey Powder is a highly effective ingredient that is perfect for weight loss. It has been de-fatted and purified, an expensive process that helps with fat loss. You cannot eat high-grade chocolate and get the same benefits (more information about Chocolate Bean Powder can be found on pages 30-31 of "The Metabolism Solution").

So, here's the ingredients for your Holiday Hangover Helper Shake:

2 scoops LynFit Chocolate Whey Powder
½ cup of ice
1 tsp granulate coffee

Boost your metabolism, block cortisol (the stress hormone that rises, especially when we over-indulge) that causes belly fat to be stored, and boost your mood today with the Holiday Hangover Helper Shake!

While the Holiday Hangover Helper Shake is my all-time favorite, the next would be my Skin Nourisher Shake.

The Skin Nourisher Shake

Especially during the summer months, we're damaging our skin in the sun. The Skin Nourisher Shake feeds our skin and re-nourishes it in three ways:

(1) LynFit Whey Protein in the shake helps feed and regenerate cells in our body;
(2) Blueberries loaded with antioxidants - a power food that helps neutralize free radical damage caused by the sun, and red raspberries - one of the highest fiber fruits you can eat that helps detox and cleanse.
(3) Green tea - loaded with antioxidants, theanine and amino acids that help you focus yet relax at the same time.

Ready to nourish your skin with a delectably good smoothie? Here's what you'll need:

1 scoop LynFit Vanilla Whey Powder
½ cup blueberries
½ cup raspberries
1 pack pre-made green tea
5 ice cubes

These and other great-tasting, metabolic boosting Protein Shake recipes can be found on pages 46-47 of "The Metabolism Solution".

Here's hoping you have a "smoothie" summer!

Bedercise: "Unexercise" Fat Blasters

4 Superstar Supplements To Boost Your Metabolism

First and foremost, you cannot supplement away a bad diet. Taking a pill will not magically drop you a dress size. Nevertheless, supplements can be very helpful, downright miraculous, when combined with a thermogenic diet and metabolic exercise.

My specialty is revving the metabolism, known as metabolic hyping in the fitness world. Metabolic hyping creates an optimal environment for fat loss by helping to lower blood sugar levels and enhancing metabolism. This is the secret to melting fat faster. Metabolic hyping multiplies calorie burn so you burn more calories and fat all day long - exactly what you want if your metabolism is stuck.

Today I'd like to introduce you to 4 superstar supplements that can rev up your energy, boost your metabolism and enhance your overall health.

High-Grade Whey

Whey is a complete protein, containing all 20 amino acids and all 9 essential amino acids the body needs. Whey has the ability to increase energy, help with depression, and benefit the hair and skin. It is widely considered to be the highest-quality natural protein.

Not all whey is created equal however. The whey used in protein shakes favored by body builders who are looking to bulk up contains fat and lactose. Micro-filtered, high quality whey, which removes most of these two ingredients and is found in my own LynFit Complete Protein is the fat-busting protein of choice. I use whey concentrate in my protein powder. Whey is typically processed into three forms; powder, concentrate and isolate. To make my whey concentrate, the whey is processed to remove water, lactose, ash, and minerals, filtering it for optimum health benefits.

You will not see the desired results using a low-grade whey product. In fact, if you are using protein shakes for meal replacements and don't see results within two weeks and don't feel cravings dissipating, then you are using cheap whey. High-grade whey like that used in the LynFit Complete Protein is geared specifically toward weight loss while many other commercial brands are geared toward adding muscle bulk and weight gain. Many of these products contain so much sugar and other fillers like soy that they are no healthier than a high-calorie dessert.

Phase 2 White Kidney Bean Extract

We have become a society with a carb-heavy diet. You do need to watch those breads, pastas, and other starches. But wouldn't it be great if you could take something that would stop those carbs - when you do indulge - from turning straight into sugar and then fat? Phase 2 White Kidney Bean Extract - from the common bean plant - may be the answer.

Taken before a meal, Phase 2 White Kidney Bean Extract; found in my LynFit Carb Edge, works by blocking the digestion of complex carbohydrates. Instead of breaking them down, complex carbs are passed through the body or are used by the colon as food for healthy bacteria. 

On its own, White Kidney Bean Extract is not a magic pill, but combined with a reduced calorie diet it can make a difference. You can find the same benefit in eating beans which are rich in antioxidants and full of fiber. However, be ready to eat for a while. You'd have to eat so much of the beans to get the benefit found in one Carb Edge that it would defeat the purpose of helping you lose weight. As with all supplements, but especially true here, quality matters. You want the highest quality White Kidney Bean Extract you can afford.

Chocolate Bean Powder

I just love the name. Anything chocolate works for me. Chocolate Bean Powder, like that found in my LynFit Accelerator, is an amazing ingredient that makes us feel good. Go ahead and google it. All are in agreement that it is a superfood. When we feel good, we eat better and crave less, saving lots of calories and hours in the gym. Chocolate Bean Powder is the main ingredient in everyday chocolate. The reason we initially crave chocolate isn't because of the sugar (although that follows later), but because it raises the level of serotonin, the feel-good hormone in our brains. And serotonin, aside from improving mood, helps with sleep and appetite suppression. 

Chocolate Bean Powder has been used to treat high-blood pressure, cancer, and other degenerative diseases. You'll find more antioxidant flavinoids in Chocolate Bean Powder than in just about any other natural food. 

Remember, this is not your standard chocolate. Chocolate, milk chocolate and others used in candy, includes cocoa butter, sweeteners and many other additives and is so highly processed that most of the benefits are removed. This is an expensive but highly effective ingredient that needs to be of the highest quality in order to be good for you and help you lose fat. Cocoa needs to be de-fatted and purified in an expensive process to help with fat loss. You cannot just eat high-grade chocolate and get these benefits. You'd be adding too much fat. Sorry, eating a chocolate bar a day will not help you lose weight.

L-Carnitine

L-Carnitine is an essential amino acid that has been studied since 1937. It is naturally produced in the body, found in red meat, and best known for its ability to transport fat into cells so fat can be burned easier for energy, a process known as fatty oxidation. If you lack natural L-Carnitine you have a hard time turning fat into fuel and can suffer from muscle weakness, soreness, and other serious conditions. Supplementing with L-Carnitine, as found in my LynFit Cutting Edge, can help burn fat and give more energy during a workout while helping to prevent muscle soreness.

A study published in Food and Chemical Toxicology (September 2011) included two groups of mice on a high-fat, weight gaining diet. One of the groups was supplemented with L-Carnitine, the other a placebo. When compared, the L-Carnitine grouped gained considerably less weight. There was some concern that taking L-Carnitine could lead to heart problems in humans however. A meta-analysis study published in Mayo Clinic Proceedings in 2013 looked at 13 different studies on L-Carnitine's effects and concludes that it is, in fact, helpful against heart disease.

More information about these and other superstar supplements can be found in my book, "The Metabolism Solution". Always remember that when supplementing to carefully follow the label instructions. More isn't better, better is better!

Top 3 Habits That Slow Weight Loss

You made up your mind. You psyched yourself up. You invested in videos. You purchased a brand new sparkly scale with all the bells and whistles. You even bought the latest and greatest workout clothes (after all, you feel good when you look good -right?). Now, the weight should just fall off. But it's not, and you can't understand why. You have the right mind-set, you're mentally prepared, you're watching the videos, and you even look good doing it. But that sparkly new-fangled scale must be broken because it won't budge in the right direction. Guess what - it's not the scale's fault.

That scale won't weigh your mind-set. That scale can't measure your mental preparedness. That scale doesn't see if you look good in your new workout clothes. That scale DOES weigh what you're eating. You see, the things that are slowing down your weight loss may not be what you think. Sure, you cut out, or cut down, eating greasy fried foods. Granted you don't eat a quart of Vanilla Bean ice cream while watching TV at night anymore. But are you now eating right for your metabolism? Even though you may be exercising; are you exercising for your metabolism?

Lose Fat Fast From The Belly, Butt, Hips And Thighs

If you've tried every diet on the planet, from paleo to gluten-free, from no-carb to high-carb, and yet you still struggle to lose weight you know first-hand that most times diet and exercise aren't enough. In fact, most conventional diets and exercise programs that prompt you to exercise more and eat less not only make you hungrier, they also make your stubborn fat even more stubborn and harder to lose.

These types of slow/moderate weight loss approaches not only slow your metabolism they can cause your body to bulk up and look even bigger which is exactly what you don't want. Actually, fast weight loss if done correctly, is safer and easier. In my book, The Metabolism Solution, I talk about how most weight loss plans fail because they don't bring results fast enough causing a loss of motivation.

So what makes fat so stubborn? The secret to losing weight and burning body fat is about safely boosting your metabolism through thermogenic eating and metabolic boosting workouts as well as the safe use of metabolic boosting, fat blasting supplements. This dynamic combination allows your body to burn more calories, even at rest. The real miracle lies in boosting your metabolism and balancing blood sugar, not killing yourself in the gym. The fat we carry around our belly, butt, hips and thighs is very stubborn and is more impacted by high blood sugar and cortisol levels when compared to other types of fat. Not eating right and over-exercising can adversely affect weight loss.

While this approach may seem different, it's the healthiest, cleanest and leanest way to eat. The best part: Everyone loses weight and sheds stubborn body fat on this metabolism boosting, fat blasting plan. The highly effective techniques described below will help you lose 2-3 times more weight and burn off excess body fat faster than diet and exercise alone. These 3 steps use targeted fat blasting supplements, metabolic exercise and easy-to-follow thermogenic (lifestyle) strategies to safely boost your metabolism (without stimulants) to suppress your appetite and lower blood sugar levels. It will force your body to burn and release fat from those stubborn areas. It all starts with this 3-step metabolism makeover.



Metabolic Makeover Step 1:

Create the right environment for fat burning by encouraging and enhancing fat loss with the LynFit Accelerator with Raspberry Ketones immediately after you wake up with black coffee and lots of water.

Perform metabolic exercise on an empty stomach first thing in the morning. For best results, do 3 workouts weekly with 1 day in between. Make sure your workouts are metabolic. If it doesn't say metabolic, it isn't! Metabolic boosting workouts are designed to lower blood sugar levels while tightening and toning without making you bulkier. Metabolic boosting exercise specifically increases your serotonin levels which lead to better mood and sleep. It also helps to manage your stress hormones (cortisol) effectively attacking that belly fat, allowing you to see results faster. While Zumba, Pilates and Cross Fit beat sitting on the couch, they won't boost your metabolism.

Lisa Note: Not all raspberry ketone supplements are created equal so look for LynFit's Accelerator. The Accelerator with Raspberry Ketones slices fat cells making them easier to be burned off while tricking your body into thinking like a thin person. Only LynFit's Accelerator contains Chocolate Bean Powder to boost mood which helps you eat cleaner. Using Accelerator and metabolic boosting exercise together may make cellulite disappear.

Metabolic Makeover Step 2:

Replenish lost nutrients and boost your metabolism 25% by drinking a LynFit Complete Protein Advanced Shake. It's only 120 calories, 1g of sugar, and 3.5g of carbs. It's free of soy, gluten and fillers, making it the best shake for weight loss. You can't buy a better tasting shake either. Be sure to mix the shake with water and ice cubes only. Do not add fruit or any milk (including soy or almond) as they raise blood sugar and block fat loss.

Just because fat is broken down and released during exercise doesn't guarantee that it will be burned as fuel. The fat can be restored as is often the case with insulin-sensitive people who have a hard time losing weight. That's why it's critical that you take (1) LynFit Cutting Edge with L-Carnitine immediately after your workout to encourage fat loss and discourage fat from being restored. Just one more reason why safe-supplementing can work miracles and make all the difference in the world.

Lisa Note: Not all protein shakes are created equal. Most commercially available shakes are made with excess lactose, sugar, soy and cheap ingredients that slow your metabolism. Buyer beware!

Metabolic Makeover Step 3:

Take (1) LynFit Carb Edge midday and before any cheat meals. This is the "prevention" piece. We all start to eat poorly as the day wears on and most times it's because we're getting tired and our blood sugar levels start to fluctuate. This step is key because it will keep you on track and help you make better eating choices. If needed, take another one at 3pm to help you through the late afternoon.

Carb Edge is loaded with a team of superstar fat burners that boost metabolism, block carbs and burn fats. Among those is Banaba Leaf Extract which helps to control blood sugar; Forskolin, which helps keep your metabolism running smoothly and Phase 2 White Kidney Bean Extract, which helps control cravings*.

Carb Edge also blocks 65% of unwanted carbs from being broken down and stored as fat. It also contains all of the B vitamins we tend to lack due to excess stress, making us feel tired and run down. If your mood and energy levels are balanced you're not as tempted to overeat.

*Lisa Note: White Kidney Bean Extract is known to stop the process of converting excess carbohydrates into fat and is also a known appetite suppressant that reduces cravings and decreases the urge to consume calories.

Prebiotics: Secret Ingredient That Helps Burn Belly Fat

Secret ingredient in LynFit Lean Bars boosts metabolism and helps burn abdominal and belly fat!

Even Dr. OZ agrees that prebiotics are one of the best weight loss trends and LynFit's Lean Bar is the only protein bar that uses prebiotic fiber.

Prebiotics are better than probiotics when it comes to weight loss and burning abdominal fat, according to researchers. The findings, published October 9th in the Journal of Functional Foods, suggest that prebiotic fiber may help prevent intestinal fat absorption and could be an effective weight loss tool.

"Normally we digest all the food and absorb all the calories", said study researcher Peter Jones of the University of Manitoba in Canada. "We think the prebiotic fiber interfered with the absorption of those calories, so that more calories went out the tailpipe and there were fewer calories to pack on abdominal fat."

What's the difference between prebiotics and probiotics?

Probiotics are live bacteria in yogurt, other dairy products and pills. And while probiotics have been shown effective in managing certain gastrointestinal conditions, they do not have the same power when it comes to weight loss that prebiotics do. First, probiotics are delicate. Heat and stomach acid can kill them, rendering them ineffective before they've even been digested. Also, those who don't eat dairy foods for taste or dietary reasons may find ingesting adequate amounts of probiotics difficult, if not impossible. You would need to overeat on yogurt in order to obtain the amount of probiotics needed to experience change.

Prebiotics (lsomalto-oligosaccarudes/inulin) is a specialized plant fiber that beneficially nourishes the good bacteria already in the large bowel or colon. The body itself does not digest these plant fibers; instead, the fibers act as a fertilizer to promote the growth of many of the good bacteria in the gut. These, in turn, provide many digestive and general health benefits. Prebiotics such as oligofructose enriched inulin (found in LynFit Lean Bars) can change a colon makeup from bad to good, which is favorable when you're trying to lose weight and kill cravings. Prebiotics produce many other health benefits, including boosting immunity.

Why is this so important for weight loss?

There are places within the wall of the stomach and small bowel where appetite hormones are made. These hormones then enter the blood stream and signal the brain. The one in the stomach signals hunger and gives us the desire to eat food. When the different hormone in the small bowel reaches the brain it signals fullness or satiety.

I don't know about you but I don't have a "kill switch" when it comes to hunger and I need all the help I can get. That's why I need to eat at least (1) LynFit Lean Bar every day as a preventative measure.

These prebiotic reduce the blood level of the hunger hormone. The prebiotic makes us less hungry and we all need that. The same prebiotics increase the fullness or satiety hormone so we feel full sooner. If you're trying to lose weight and you struggle with cravings the Lean Bar is the perfect snack.

When trying to lose weight you should eat at least (1) Lean Bar every day because they may:

• Favorably change the bacterial makeup of the colon
• Likely reduce the number of calories absorbed through the colon wall
• Decrease the level of the hunger hormones in the blood
• Increase the level of the satiety or fullness hormone in the blood

Prebiotics aid digestion and promote weight loss and an insufficient intake can lead to weight gain and digestive issues. Not to mention, Lean Bars are clean calories that boost metabolism rather than slowing it down. Lean Bars are low in calories, contain 10 grams of prebiotic fiber, extremely low fat and low in sugar.

Rather than wreck your diet like most protein bars will do, Lean Bars can actually cause you to lose weight. I challenge you to check the Lean Bar label against any protein bar out there and I guarantee you can't find a better tasting or cleaner, leaner bar.

That's what makes Lean Bars different from all of the rest of the bars out there. They are the cleanest protein bar, providing 20 grams of high quality complete whey protein, boosting your metabolism rather than slowing it down the way others will. If you're not eating at least (1) Lean Bar every day you're sabotaging (slowing) your weight loss.

While Lean Bars may seem expensive, it's because they are All-Natural, gluten-free, and actually cost less than the fancy coffees we all drink that cause us to gain weight. Lean Bars cost less than the average snack. Here's how they measure up:

• 20 grams of high biological protein
• 10 grams of fiber from a prebiotic source
• 2.5 grams of fat
• 2.5 grams of sugar
• 11 net carbs

Most commercially purchased protein bars are inexpensive because they are made with inexpensive ingredients. LynFit knows how important protein is when it comes to losing weight and boosting your metabolism. That's why we use the same high-grade, high biological value in the Lean Bar. This is critical when losing weight because it helps:

• Kill cravings and satisfies your sweet tooth
• Prevent blood sugar swings
• Protects and preserves lean muscle tissue
• Provides natural energy
• Keeps you feeling fuller longer

Lean Bars won't cause weight gain or bulk the way other protein bars will. The best time to enjoy a Lean Bar is:

• As a meal replacement when you just need to chew (when you cannot make a LynFit Complete Protein Shake)
• As a delicious snack with a cup of tea to avoid the "not-so-healthy" foods
• After your workout to replenish protein and nourish your body

The best part about Lean Bars (besides being the cleanest bar on the market) is that they are portable and need no refrigeration. You should always have one stashed in your purse, gym bag or desk. "A Lean Bar a day keeps the excess pounds away"! Don't leave home without one. Lean Bars stay fresh for months and (if needed) you can refrigerate them so they keep longer. But remember, if you do refrigerate them, they can get very hard so soften them first before eating by keeping it in your pocket close to your skin or any warm place. No more excuses that you didn't have the right food available. That's what Lean Bars are for!

For a warm delicious treat, try warming up pieces of Lean Bar in the microwave for 15-30 seconds (depending on the watts) and enjoy metabolic boosting cookies (don't forget to remove the wrapper). My personal favorite is a Tahitian Vanilla Lean Bar with skinny hot chocolate (made with Complete Protein Shake mix) and 10 minutes of peace and quiet. For more delicious recipes stay tuned for my book release, The Metabolism Solution, due out by April 15th. But don't wait - preorder now on Amazon HERE, and please leave a review.

Lose 1 pound a day with the Lean Protein Bar diet:

• Eat between the hours of 8am and no later than 8pm
• Drink 8-10 (8) ounce glasses of water daily
• Be sure there are 3 hours between meals and snacks for proper digestion
• For proper food choices and serving sizes, please see the list HERE

The most important aspect of this weight loss plan is the sound nutrition that the Lean Bar and Complete Protein Shake deliver. If you need to start slow then that's where you should start. You can always add supplements in later and you'll still lose weight.
