I've been locked in a battle with my body for just about all my life with regards to my weight. I've done the diets, I've been to WW, (lost 56lbs), put it all back on, tried this, tried that you get the picture.
I've just been reading up on metabolism and it would appear that I have a fat & protein efficient one, OK then?
There are also claims that you should NEVER consume Orange Juice, Artificial Sweeteners, Wholemeal bread, fake butters and soy products. What happened to everything in moderation?
There does seem to be a logic there, but is this just another fad do you think?
So, is it worth trying to eat in a specific way that may help to supercharge my metabolsim, and if so does anyone have any meal plans suitable for doing such a thing?
I know the answer is to consume less calories than you expend, and I'm not looking for a quick fix wonder diet as I know they don't exist. I just want to get things sorted, and preferably before I hit 40, and if I can help it along in anyway it's all good.
