The Guidelines:

Guideline 1:

Try to include protein in most meals and snacks, since protein requires more calories to digest than any other macronutrient (known as the ‘thermic effect of feeding) so you actually burn calories just sitting there eating. Also it makes you feel ‘fuller’ for longer compared to carbohydrates or fats.

Guideline 2:

Try to eat 6-7 times a day, this doesn’t mean you eat more calories it just means you change how frequently you eat. By doing this you can stabilise your blood sugar levels which means you are less likely to crave sugary foods and store body fat.

Guideline 3:

Drink a lot of water since if the body doesn’t have a sufficient supply of water, the kidneys cannot function efficiently. At this point the surplus workload is done by the liver meaning the liver can’t do its job of metabolising stored fat for energy properly thus meaning less fat is burnt. Also drinking enough water can help to suppress appetite, since people often eat because they mistake the feeling of thirst for hunger.

Guideline 4:

Eat as many vegetables (especially green vegetables such as broccoli and spinach) as you want since the fiber will ensure you feel ‘full’ without the calories. Basically vegetables provide ‘bulk’ to the diet whilst only adding a small number of calories, hence why a large plate of vegetables only contains 200 calories yet will dramatically boost your metabolism.

Guideline 5:

Exercise more, since not only does the actual act of exercising burn calories but studies reveal it can also suppress appetite by raising the body’s temperature and through altering hormones within the body.

Guideline 6:

There are supplements on the market specifically designed to suppress appetite, however none so proven and tested as Body Beautiful, which contains the largest dosage of Pharmaceutical Grade L-Carnitine per tablet (250mg.) Research reveals L-Carnitine is one of the most effective appetite suppressants and weight loss ingredients in the world.  

Also just in case you do give in to cravings there is the supplement Freedom. At present it’s the only Pharmaceutical Grade product in the world that allows you to eat carbohydrates such as pasta, rice and bread and not get fat in the first place.
