What is Metabolism?
+o#r metabolism is the amo#nt o, energ- in )alories that -o#r bod- b#rns in order to maintain its weight. Whether -o#re slee&ing/ r#nning/ sitting/ standing/ riding in a )ar or eating a bowl o, )ho)olate ,#dge i)e )ream/ -o#r bod- is )onstantl- b#rning )alories in order to kee& -o# going. Think o, it as a ,ire within -o#/ b#rning -o#r ,at and ,ood awa-. 0o/ sorr- b#t -o# wont b#rn eno#gh )alories )hewing -o#r )ho)olate ,#dge i)e )ream to )an)el o#t the )alories -o# 1#st took in b- eating that bowl o, i)e )ream. It wo#ld be ni)e i, it worked that wa-/ b#t it doesnt. Get an- gro#& o, women together/ and e2en some men/ get them talking on the to&i) o, their metabolism and -o#ll hear moaning and groaning and )om&laining abo#t how their metabolism is so slow/ that when the- were -o#nger the- )o#ld eat an-thing thewanted to and not gain weight b#t now i, the- sim&l- 3think3 abo#t a &ie)e o, )heese)ake the- &#t ,i2e &o#nds on. Its a sad b#t tr#e ,a)t o, li,e that as we age o#r metabolism slows down. It doesnt sto& 4altho#gh at times we might ,eel as tho#gh it has5 b#t it does )hange. The reason ,or this is be)a#se we ha2e more lean m#s)le mass at *( than we do at (/ and lean m#s)le mass is what hel&s b#rn )alories. Some &eo&le ha2e higher metabolisms than others and are able to b#rn o,, the )alories the- eat and ne2er gain an o#n)e. "thers ha2e metabolisms slower than a sl#g and e2er-thing the- eat seems to sti)k with them and not get b#rned o,,. 0o two &eo&le are alike in the )alories the- b#rn and the rate o, their metabolism.

$a2ing said that/ is it &ossible to boost -o#r metabolism in order to b#rn more )alories and be able to lose weight? E2iden)e s#ggests that there are a n#mber o, wa-s to hel& ma6imi7e o#r metabolism in order to more e,,i)ientl- )ons#me the ,ood we eat/ whether were walking/ reading or e2en slee&ing. 8oosting -o#r metaboli) rate is &ossible and Ill show -o# how.

Dont Diet
When we see bea#ti,#l models in maga7ines and s2elte a)tresses in mo2ies/ we are tem&ted to )#t down on o#r eating in order to lose weight and look more like them. We de)ide to sto& eating as m#)h so we )an dro&s some &o#nds. 9ess ,ood taken in sho#ld mean -o#ll lose weight :#i)kl-/ right? 0ot ne)essaril-. "#r bodies are 2ere,,i)ient at storing ,ood as ,at as a de,ense against star2ation. When -o# )#t -o#r )alories/ and i, -o# do it drasti)all- eno#gh/ -o#r bod- &ani)s.

"r ?ell- 8ellies/ saggarms/ do#ble )hins/ saddle bags and an- n#mber o, ,at stores are )reated in order to make s#re that -o#r bod- doesnt star2e. Think o, it as the general o, an arm-/ la-ing in stores ,or a 2er- long winter. When -o#r bod- is in s#r2i2al mode/ it takes ,ewer )alories to s#stain itsel,/ to maintain its )#rrent weight. E6)ess )alories are stored as ,at and the stores are &ar)eled o#t to the soldiers rel#)tantl- and 2er- s l o w l - in order to make s#re the reso#r)es last as long as &ossible. Se2ere restri)tion o, )alories is a s#re ,ire wa- to )a#se -o#r metabolism to slow down to a )rawl. I, -o#2e been )rash dieting ,or -ears witho#t e6er)ising then -o#r metabolism has been a,,e)ted. Dieting like this b#rns m#s)le and the less m#s)le mass -o# ha2e/ the less )alories -o# b#rn and the slower -o#r metabolism. +o# will now need ,ewer )alories to maintain -o#r )#rrent weight. This means that i, -o# )ons#me more )alories/ -o#r bod- wont need to #se them ,or energ- and will store them. $elloooo bell- ,at. When -o# &#t the weight ba)k on/ and -o# will i, -o#2e been )rash dieting/ then it will be &#t ba)k on as ,at. This means that -o#r metaboli) rate has &robabl- dro&&ed a little bit ea)h time that -o#2e )rash dieted. A#tting on more ,at and losing m#s)le will )a#se -o#r metabolism to slow down e2en more. It seems like a )-)le o, doom/ doesnt i? It )an be i, -o# dont break that )-)le.
