Simple Tips to Real Fat Burning

By Ricardo Daryans

At this time of year, we can use every last tip to help avoid holiday weight gain. So here are 5 fat loss tips for beginner & advanced readers.

1) No liquid calories (with the exception of a post-workout drink).

Please, no juices, sodas or sports drinks. Liquid sugar is your worst enemy when you are trying to lose fat.

Limit your alcohol intake (and don't mix drinks, that is a double calorie bomb!).

2) Forget about fast food.

Eating at fast foods restaurants means nothing but one thing: fat. You will not find healthy food at a fast food restaurant.

The kind of food you'll find there is fast and cheap because of the poor quality of the food ingredients (especially the protein).

It will not be easy to change the kind of food you eat. And what will be harder is to prepare your own meals. Why should you have to do it so? Because there's no better way to know what exactly you are taking into your mouth.

As i told you, it may be hard at the beginning, but that food will be fresh as no other, will taste better (a lot better than fast food), and, the most important thing, it will be healthier. It will make you more alert, it will not make you want to have an afternoon nap at your desk.

Make one small improvement to your nutrition everyday for the rest of your life.

3) Try eating more fruits and vegetables.

If you are eating 2 servings per day, then go up to 4 servings per day by the end of the week. And even if you think you are doing great by having 5 servings per day, you still need to double that (take 2-3 weeks to work your way up to 10 servings per day).

There's nothing better than organic fiber-rich fruits and vegetables.

Most nuts are roasted in oils (possible source of trans fats), so stick to natural or dry-roasted nuts.

Don't panic...this small amount of nuts won't make you fat, but will fill you up and help you lose weight.

5) No pain, no gain.

And make sure the workouts are efficient and effective. To make it easy for you to follow, stick with the Turbulence Training fat burning workout system.

It doesn't matter if you train in the morning before or after breakfast, or at night before or after dinner, or at 1pm on days when the moon is in line with Saturn...don't worry about the details, just train consistently.

6) BONUS TIP: Sitting around watching the TV and snacking, is not the best thing to do after a big meal. Go for a walk, this will help you control your cholesterol and triglycerides. - 16004
