In the last newsletter we talked about how you can quickly eliminate feelings of hunger. Today we’re also going to talk about how you can speed up your metabolism.
Appetite Defined: Eating and drinking for relaxation and pleasure.
Hunger Defined: The body’s call for nourishment.
Think of the metabolism as a campfire. And think of your body as a large pile of dead trees. Suppose that you want to get rid of that large pile of dead trees and branches, so you decide to burn them.
It’s difficult and it takes a while to get the fire burning.
You start out by getting small pieces of bark and twigs to ignite. And as they begin to burn, you start to add larger pieces of fuel in the form of branches, and finally the tree trunks, which can then catch fire.
What happens if you throw another tree trunk on that large fire as it burns? It easily catches fire and burns too, right? But what happens if you let the fire burn down to an ember, and then throw a tree trunk on it? Nothing happens, the pile of wood just gets larger. The extra tree trunk might even snuff out that little ember.
The point is that when you skip a meal, your body goes into starvation mode. Your metabolism slows way down in order to conserve calories, because it doesn’t know when it will be fed again. And when the metabolism slows down, so does your weight loss.
When you finally do eat after having skipped a meal, and your body is in starvation mode, instead of burning the calories in the food you’ve just eaten, your body converts them to body fat to get ready for the next “fast.”
Here are some simple rules that will help you keep that fire roaring and your body burning fat and loosing weight:
1. Eat 4 – 7 small meals spread evenly throughout the day.
2. Eat as close to the same exact times each day as possible.
This will help to eliminate false feelings of hunger. (Much
more on this topic in the next installment.)
3. Eat only at the dinner table, never with the TV, or radio.
The NLP portions of my “Lose Weight In A Flash!” program are
designed to help you get rid of the cravings for food that many
people have when they watch TV, read a paper, or drive a car.
4. Never skip a meal, because it will dramatically slow down
your metabolism.
5. Eating fats and carbohydrates will step up the metabolism by 5%.
6. Eating protein foods will step up the metabolism by 25%.
7. Vigorous exercise done on a daily basis will step up the
metabolism. You should check with your physician before
starting any exercise program.
8. Developing muscles will dramatically step up your metabolism.
BRIEF REVIEW FROM THE LAST FEW POSTS
1 STRESS EATING: Tension causes oral cravings. So use
self-hypnosis to dissipate stress.
2 CONDITIONED RESPONSES: All of my hypnosis/NLP programs will
erase the unconscious connection between activities like
watching TV and eating food, so that watching TV actually gives
you a compulsion to NOT eat.
3 MOTIVATION: Our motivation is based on what we believe. My
“Vaporize Your Appetite!” program uses very specific formulas
for creating powerful amounts of motivation.
One of the NLP techniques my program uses, is to program your unconscious connect the image of being thin, with having feelings of self-esteem. Because when you believe at the core level that being thin will make you feel good about yourself, you are powerfully motivated to do whatever is necessary to lose weight, and keep it off!
So that’s it for today. In the next installment you will learn how to quickly eliminate false feelings of hunger. Until then, the best thing that you can do for yourself is to visualize yourself with the body that you would love to have, living a peaceful, happy, and secure life. Do this exercise on a daily basis.
