Is it hot in here???

Have you ever noticed when you start to exercise and eat healthy that you are always so HOT!! Oh my goodness, the past few days I am sooooooo hot all day long, especially at night. Did you know that is a sign that your Metabolism is working?? YAY!!!! :) So I am not going to complain if I am hot;) That is a sign that my body is telling me I am doing something right :)



I got the info below from this webisite:  http://www.shedyourweight.com/how_to_increase_metabolism_how_to_get_a_faster_metabolism.html

Your muscles are the key to increasing your metabolic rate. Muscles need a lot more energy day in and day out to function than fat needs. The more muscles you have the more energy you will consume daily. This means that you will burn a lot more calories if you have a healthy muscle mass. All you have to do to increase your muscle mass is exercise more.
The best exercises you can do to increase your muscles mass and increase your metabolic rate are strength exercises. Weight lifting is a fabulous workout which speeds up your metabolism for up to 10-12 hours after the workout is finished. This means that you don’t just burn fat while exercising, you will also burn fat after the workout is done. Going to the gym 3 times a week and doing some weigh lifting will work wonders and help you melt the fat away.
The second thing you can do to increase metabolism is to eat only healthy food. This may sound easy but if it is so easy why aren’t you doing it? You see junk food clogs your body and slow down its functions. A body that cannot operate at full capacity will burn a lot less calories daily.
