everyone knows at least one girl who can eat like two double cheeseburgers for lunch and still looks like a supermodel without even working out I always wondered how are they doing that what secret habits do they have we don't know about I know what you're thinking girl it's just her genetics she probably has a fast metabolism and you're right she probably has but what if I told you that there are six simple ways you could trick your own metabolism into acting just like hers I made it my mission to find out how people like her
can eat anything they want and still lose weight now did all of the things I found bring results absolutely not but that's why I'm here so you don't waste your time and just get straight to what actually works but first let's talk a little bit about the science behind all this so you can actually understand what your body is doing your body burns calories in two ways through physical activity and your metabolism your metabolism burns more than 60% of your calories while physical activity only accounts for about 30% so naturally people with fast metabolisms race
through their calories much faster than others who can eat whatever they want and still look like Gigi Hadi everyone is naturally born with different metabolic rates but there are a ton of ways to boost your metabolism without dieting or working out but first I want to bring up something even more important I discovered during my research I was in utter shock when I found out that people were completely replacing water with stuff like soda in their diets your body actually only responds to one liquid only and that's water you've probably been wondering why all the
hot girls constantly carry their water bottles with them well drinking water is about way more than just the Aesthetics drinking about half a liter of cold water increases your metabolism by almost 30% for 30 to 40 minutes because your body has to work harder to regulate its temperature this helps you burn calories much quicker also most of the time thirst or dehydration can be mistaken for Hunger drinking water occasionally helps you feel way less hungry and is great for appetite control ironically water also helps reduce bloating bloating happens when your body holds on to excess
liquid this is called fluid retention staying hydrated helps your body release those fluids more easily because your body has no need to retain it anymore I know we all love our sweet little drinks but you wouldn't believe how many calories these bad boys are packing one can of Coke has well over 150 calories and this is a standard for most canned drinks so what you need in that tumbler is water not soda but as great as water is she can't do the work all by herself in the end if you're eating more food than your
metabolism can burn then you're still going to gain a ton of weight sadly that's how it works but the catches that you don't have to change anything about your diet to consume fewer calories nailing portion control lets you eat whatever you want and still be skinny I know people always make portion control seem like you have to start eating like a mouth but there are lots of practical ways to go about it and still eat until you're full let me introduce you to the PCF rule it goes more protein less carbs the least fats but
it's not about switching to a high protein diet you just have to apply this role to the food you already like proteins contain way less calories and help you feel full faster so when you're eating try to get more protein less carbs and the smallest amount of fatty food P then C F so for your Chipotle order you could add less rice and more beans for your fast food get more wings and less fries or even give flat dough pizza a try this simple formula helps you eat anything you want and still consume less calories
here's a simple guide to help you know what class of food most meals fall under you can also eat smaller amounts of heavy foods like desserts chips fast food and other calorie dense meals get a small slice of cake for dessert keep fast food orders to once a week or maybe eat half rather than a full bag of chips in one sitting here are some calorie dense foods so you can get a feeling for it when you're diet consists of healthy homemade meals more than unhealthy greasy food you'll automatically consume fewer calories without the pressure
of a tedious diet but relax you don't have to follow a strict or unrealistic calorie limit keeping your intake anywhere between 2500 to 3,000 calories works just fine for maintaining a healthy figure I know portion control may seem difficult because it's kind of hard to eat less but I found a simple trick that helps to consume way less food without even trying there is absolutely no reason to race through your meals it's actually bad for you it just ends up making you bloated and can mess with your stomach and the signals it sends to your
brain when you're full which ends up making you eat much more than you normally would have by eating slower you kind of trick your brain into thinking you're full before you can even overeat it takes about 20 minutes for your stomach to send the I'm full signal so if you rush you probably eat a lot more than you need and because eating slower helps improve digestion it indirectly boosts your metabolism too and to be honest food tastes way better when you're not eating at about 100 Scoops per minute you can Implement little practices like putting
your fork down between bites or putting your phone away while you eat so you can take your time with your meal little habits like this might seem insignificant but they add up and end up making a huge difference eating slower helps you feel full with less food but what about the time between meals if you're constantly snacking or eating out of boredom your body never gets a break to fully digest and reset and you're going to start gaining weight again pretty quickly keeping gaps between your meals gives your body time to break down the food
you've already had your body uses hormones for all kinds of things including hunger and feeling full gin is the hormone that makes you hungry and leptin tells you when you're full they work like a team when one goes up the other goes down but when you're constantly eating even when you're not really hungry it kind of messes with how your body releases these signals grin stops Rising properly so you don't feel real hunger and leptin gets ignored making it harder to know when you're full that's why leaving gaps between meals helps you take back control
over your hunger if sticking to those gaps sounds tough to you start by cutting off all Meals by 8: to 10: p.m. this is a great way to do an intermittent fast without even noticing because you instantly get a 12-hour intermittent fasting window between 9:00 p.m. and breakfast the next morning I know those midnight snacks can be tempting but if you truly want to maintain a healthy weight without a strict diet you need to put the Cheetos down late at night and get some sleep while you're having sweet dreams your body is doing a lot
of work to keep you alive that's why you burn about 40 to 80 calories per hour while sleeping poor sleep heightens gin levels the hunger hormone we talked about earlier making you feel hungry all day long sleeping badly also makes your brain extremely tired which makes you crave sugary and high calorie meals even more because your body is in need of way more energy than usual try to get at least 7 to 8 hours of sleep every night and if you can try to sneak in a nap during the day but as simple as it
sounds maintaining your body weight is not just about taking a nap working out may be a great way to build your dream body but definitely not the only way to keep a healthy weight for all my lazy girls here's a list of fun cardio options that actually don't feel like work but I know sometimes we're too lazy for even that which is why I'm not going to get keep this super simple hack I found during my research sucking in your belly we often do it subconsciously but did you know that it really enses up your
abdominal muscles you're kind of activating these muscles keeping them engaged even when you're just standing or sitting it's a super simple way to keep your core active while doing fullon exercises if you want to take it a step further and build that eight fig body of your dreams check out this video on how to build that perfect slim thick body ASAP [Music]
