Will Acai Berry help you
lose weight quick?

Uh, no.

Every weight loss or health website I go to I see acai berry everywhere. Because of all this mass marketing going on, people are believing that it has some special power or something. It's really making me sick to see all of these spammers trying to sell you the next greatest thing.

So what do we know about it?

Answer: Not much

You can see in my article Health Benefits of Acai Berry - Real or Hype? where I talk about the research on it. Bottom line is there is very little. It may have some really good antioxidant benefits but its not going to be some miracle weight loss cure. I couldn't even find a research article on weight loss for it.

Let me ask you this; do you want to lose weight quick?

Well there are no quick weight loss potions out there. If you want to burn fat, lose weight quick, and look good you have to work at it. You can lose weight quickly if you do it right.

Are you going to lose 10 pounds in 3 days?

No, but you can lose a couple of pounds a week and you can really start improving the way you look in a couple of weeks. Your body cannot burn that much fat in that short of time. All that you are losing is water and maybe muscle.

So what do you do?

Well you can start by reading my other articles. I also have ehow.com postings up on how to speed up your metabolism, choosing diet pills that work, and losing weight quickly.

You can also check out my squidoo lens tips to lose weight quicker.

You follow those tips and you will lose weight.

If you want to add a weight loss supplement then I would highly recommend Hydroxycut.

I've used it for many years and have thoroughly researched the ingredients. It is by far one of the best out there. Easily top 5.

Do you want to get rid of
that fat stomach?

So what works? With the endless advice from books and web pages and TV commercials on how to lose the belly fat, I keep coming across people who have little to no success. With all of the advice out there you would think that everybody would look like a celebrity.

First we need to clear up a big myth.

Abs are made in the kitchen not in the gym.

What do you need to do to lose that fat stomach then?

What you need is a solid diet strategy that involves a healthy diet plan. Changing your diet is crucial because you can do crunches/sit-ups till you’re blue in the face but you won’t get that toned stomach until you change how you eat.

So what works? With the endless advice from books and web pages and TV commercials on how to lose the belly fat, I keep coming across people who have little to no success. With all of the advice out there you would think that everybody would look like a celebrity.

Here are some tips to help you burn that fat off your waistline:

1. Cut sugar out of your diet.
   
   If you don’t understand why sugar will make you fat then read Insulin: The Fat Hormone to see why.



2. Stop skipping breakfast.
   
   We live in a fast paced society and breakfast is the easiest meal to skip. You are only doing yourself harm by skipping breakfast. This is the most crucial meal of the day to get your metabolism started and out of conservation mode from sleeping all night.



3. Eat 5-6 meals a day.
   
   Nothing will help more to keep your metabolism fired up and burning calories than eating several small meals a day. Skipping meals only sends your body into fat storage mode to conserve energy and slows down your metabolism.



4. Cut out the bad carbs.
   
   We are a lazy nation and the food industry loves to cater to lazy people. We fill ourselves with processed foods that don’t require cooking and then wonder why we have fat bellies. Stop and look at all of the junk you eat everyday. Cut out those bad calories and start eating less high Glycemic carbs.



5. Move your body.
   
   You don’t have to be a gym rat to slim down that waistline. There are plenty of things you can do right at home to burn calories. Go for a walk or play wii with the kids and stop lying there on the couch watching reruns of lost.

Life is short so stop wasting it by doing nothing.
