The Metabolism Advantage

Well, I’m back. Another year older, and hopefully a little wiser. This may well have been the first birthday where I didn’t gain a few extra pounds along with the age increase. I took advantage of a 2-night spa break that I won in a competition and went away for a couple of days of R’n'R with my poor, long-suffering hubby. After 4 years together, he finally endured his first massage and facial, plus 3 days of healthy food. Oh well, he may as well get used to it – he’s going to be seeing a lot of it from now on.

And so, to the plan. For those of my dear readers who have come here from the Precision Nutrition forum, this will all be old news to you. But for anyone else searching for THE ANSWER to their weight-loss prayers, this is for you.

Like most fat people, I like to blame a slow metabolism and big bones for my excess weight, not really wanting to admit to being a lazy pig, after all. So when I came across a book called The Metabolism Advantage, “An 8-week program to rev up your body’s fat-burning machine – at any age”, my interest was piqued. I may have even eschewed Amazon’s free delivery and got them to send it Next Day Delivery. If I could have driven down there and picked it up, I would have.

So was it worth it? Was it just another diet book filled with old news reworked with lots of ‘motivational’ waffle by some wannabe guru cashing in on us poor, desperate, calorifically challenged folks? It sure was! Nah, just kidding. It was brilliant. It was scientific, well researched, and well written. Even more than that, it was actually inspiring. It made me want to go out and make those changes.

And for maybe the first time ever, I did. Not all of them at once, but I started to make changes in my daily life. I started exercising again. Cooking metabolism-friendly meals. Upped my intake of the recommended supplements. And a strange thing happened. I wanted to do more.

So now you have two choices. To find out what happened next, tune in tomorrow for the next installment of my blubberbegone makeover. Alternatively, to start your own, go out and buy the book! You can learn a bit more about it here:
