There can be a whole minefield of mood swings and diets and failures and successes. But there is often little attention paid to one of the most important factors in losing weight, your metabolism. Probably because there's no money to be made selling products to help you speed your metabolism.
Or, to be more specific, speeding up your metabolism. Lets look, firstly, at what metabolism is, and then at why speeding it up can be the best thing you can do for your weight loss routine.
Some people think metabolism is a part of the body but it is in fact a body process, or to be accurate a series of processes. It is what turns food into energy.
It's a body process that runs all the time in the background and keeps turning your food into energy to run body processes.
Your body uses energy to fuel a range of body processes and this fuel comes from the calories in your food. If you have too much energy, or calories, your body stores this as fat.
The body can use the energy that it gets to either create energy/fat cells in your body, or to help break them down to release energy. These two processes are the opposite of each other. What you want your body doing is spending more time breaking energy cells down and less time creating more energy cells. The process of speeding up your metabolism changes the balance between creating more energy cells, and breaking them down.
Faster metabolism, more energy cells broken down.
And there are ways to increase how fast your metabolism runs. It takes some time and effort, it's not something you can organize with a phone call, but there are recognized ways to speed up your metabolism and therefore to increase your chances of successful weight loss.
You can't speed up your metabolism overnight. It takes some time, but doing so can be one of the very best things you could ever do for your weight loss program. The time and effort can be well worth while.
You get your body working for you rather than against you if you speed up your metabolism.
Metabolism is something that is ignored in most of what you read about losing weight. Why? There's no money in it. There's no premade meals to buy, no expensive courses to undertake. No profit. Just a simple solution to losing weight faster.
But even though you may not hear a lot about it speeding up your metabolism is one of the best things you can do for your weight loss program.
I've written a book about how to speed up your metabolism which you can get at my website.
