increase one's metabolism article

My coach's advise from last week's conversation: Write down how I felt 1. if I did my 3.5 mile walk in the morning vs 2. if I played on the internet instead I feel fabulous when I do my 3.5 mile walk. I need to get in the habit of NOT turning on the computer in the morning. Do that at night after work. I think this week I may talk to her about my theory that I eat more when I'm tired. So maybe I should be OK with resting and pampering myself. below forward from Jenny Craig's weekly tips Here are some suggestions to keep your metabolism effective and efficient so you'll burn calories all day long, even when you're sedentary. Eat smaller portions more frequently - Instead of 3 large meals, eat 3 small meals and 3 snacks a day to boost your metabolism and curb your appetite. Break for breakfast - When you skip breakfast, you run the risk of becoming overly hungry and are more likely to overeat at your next meal. Choose a protein (dairy, meat or nuts) and fiber (whole fruits and grains) combination for a healthy, satisfying way to start your day. Get moving to get healthy - Any physical activity will help raise the speed of your metabolism. Muscle burns more calories than fat, even at rest, so build muscle with weight training or resistance exercise. Incorporate strength training in your workout 2-3 times a week in addition to your regular cardio.
