You are sluggish, tired and reaching for a Mars Bar by 10 a.m.  You’d go for a mid-day run with your co-worker, but you just can’t summon up the energy.  You’re tired…and looking down at your muffin-top, realize you’re getting fatter (too many muffins and too little of everything else.)

It might be tempting to buy a pill to remedy your situation, but deep down you know that’s only a band aid, and won’t fix the entire problem.  A high end diet pill can help you get started such as a pill like apidexin.  Apidexin can be a great motivation booster that helps the pounds to really start coming off at first but to be really successfull you need to also work at the real problem. The real problem is you and how you’re treating yourself.

Never fear, you’ve got a sluggish metabolism.  And just like your car, which you had to send into the shop last week for a well overdue lube and rotation, you too can be fixed.  It may take some time, a few changes in your diet and a lot less muffins, but you’ll be amazed at how quickly your body will positively react to nice treatment.

Here’s some ways to make your metabolism purr…

1)     Stop eating crap.  I mean it!  Come on now, was your great-great-grandfather getting by on Ho-Ho’s and Moon Pies?  Was he a regular in line at the McDonald’s drive thru?  Hell no!  He was eating real food, like a real man.  And he would tell you he walked six miles each way to his vegetable garden, and spent hours pulling up potatoes and carrots and picking beans, which he then let his wife cook for him.   He was a meat and veggies man.  Take all that hard-earned money you flush into vending machines and Lunchables, and direct your shopping cart at the produce section.  Go on now, you can do it!  Add in some low-sugar fruit (apples, oranges, pears, berries), whole grain bread, brown rice, lean meat, eggs and maybe some of that ‘fiber’ cereal (walk right on past the Cocoa Pops…go on…), and you’ve got yourself some fine eatin’.

2)     Eat breakfast.  Now breakfast does not constitute a McGriddle sandwich or a bite of leftover pizza you left on the counter last night.  Have some of that fiber cereal with some strawberry and blueberries on top.  Or scramble some eggs and eat with a piece of whole grain toast.  Your metabolism will open a sleepy eye and register something new is going on.  Get it fully awake by packing some healthy snacks (think of those fruits and veggies), to munch on throughout the day.   STAY AWAY FROM THE VENDING MACHINE!

3)     Drink lots and lots of water.  Lay off coffee, soda drinks and anything loaded with sugar, whether real or artificial.  If you can’t abide too much water, and herbal tea is for sissies, try a decaf coffee, or if you really have to, a diet, caffeine-free soda.  Look, your body is confused by all the artificial stimulants and processed crap you’ve been feeding it for a couple of decades.   Give it a break!  Drink water.

4) Exercise daily.  You don’t have to kill yourself.  At first your low energy levels won’t allow for more than a half-hearted walk, but you’ll rediscover the merits of fresh air.  You will be AMAZED at how quickly your body rises to any physical challenge you give it.  And you don’t have to limit yourself to the boring treadmill.  Play ball with your friends.  Speed-walk the mall.  Jump on a mini tramp in front of the television (ignore the Snickers commercial.)  You can do it!

5)     Sleep young Padawan, sleep.  Sleep restores your body on a cellular level.  Think about that.  It’s pretty cosmic. You will awake each dawn with not only a new day, but a new body.   Visualize the new you (sans muffin top) and embrace it with zeal!  (Don’t forget your healthy breakfast on the way out.)

Do these five simple things and your engine will purr and you’ll be running on six (very sexy) cylinders.  Not only will your metabolism run efficiently, but you’ll feel terrific and will be purchasing smaller pants very soon my friend.  And did your coworker just wink at you?
