Weight Loss Eating Rules

After doing a lot of research, I have determined that the following elements are key to any weight loss plan:

1. Drink lots of water. Drinking water cleans out your system, makes you feel full, and is easy to do, so drink at least eight glasses of water every day.
2. Eat Frequently. Your metabolism increases every time you eat, so instead of skipping breakfast and pigging out at lunch and having spikes in your metabolism, each small but complete meals every two or three hours (except while you are sleeping, of course).
3. Eat Protein. Protein takes twice as much energy for your body to digest than carbohydrates and fat, so you boost your metabolism just by eating it. With proper exercise protein leads to increased muscle mass, which boosts metabolism and aids in weight loss.
4. Eat Vegetables. Vegetables contain fiber, antioxidants and lots of other very healthy ingredients.
5. Eat Protein with Vegetables. By combining proteins and vegetables at every meal. Proteins are acidic, vegetables are neutral, so by combining them you boost your metabolism, neutralize acid, streghten bones, and encourage muscle growth.
6. Eat Carbohydrates After Exercise. Your body needs carbohydrates for energy, so eat them after exercise so they are burned quickly, and not stored as fat.
