Subject: Re: Keep Pushing! email topic from my trainer Doug Woo:
Coolness. I am going to bed right after this….early too because I did not get enough sleep for the last two nights, so I am going to catch up now rather than take in caffeine and sugar tomorrow and go off of my food plan. Thanks for the tip about the 16 ozzies of cold water in the morn, and YES to packing the lunch. This sets up my day for success and not failure. And I will go to the gym BEFORE I doodle with email and then watch my whole lunch hour go away without any exercise. THANKS FOR THE THOUGHT.

First of all, I know you are working hard to achieve your ultimate fitness goals. This takes time, and requires a total commitment of consistent workouts and proper nutrition. I know this process is noteasy, so here are some easy steps to follow:
1. Wake up to water
From now on, drink at least 16 ounces of chilled H2O as soon as you rise in the morning. German scientists recently found that doing this boosts metabolism by 24 percent for 90 minutes afterward. (A smaller amount of water had no effect.)
2. Eat breakfast every day
Within an hour of waking, have a meal or protein shake with at least 250 calories. Cap your intake at 500 calories.
3. Pack your lunch
By using this approach, you’ll keep your body well fed and satisfied throughout the day without overeating. You’ll also provide your body with the nutrients it needs for your workout, no matter what time you exercise.
4. Keep your exercise routines consistent
For the best results, workout 3 – 4 times per week
5. Don’t up too late at night
Lack of sleep may disrupt the hormones that control your ability to burn fat.. Over time, this leads to fat storage around your belly.
Try these steps, and let me know how they are working out for you. Keep Pushing!!!
