In my recent post here, I talked about how there was a recall on the popular diet pill, Hydroxycut. In light of that, I figured now would be a good time for me to put up a post talking about some natural ways you can still get fast weight loss but without using diet pills or settling for those ever-so-popular fad diets you see all over the place.

Without further ado, here are some of my favorite and most effective ways to NATURALLY lose weight fast -

1. Boost your metabolism - By elevating your metabolic rate, you'll get much more faster and consistent fat loss. Some examples of ways you can boost your metabolism are drinking green tea daily, eat 4-6 meals daily, get plenty of fiber, and "calorie shifting". Check out this diet here that will teach you the "calorie shifting" technique which will elevate your metabolic rate to the highest point possible. The higher and more steady your metabolism is, the more fat and weight you'll burn.

2. Weight train - The more muscle you have on your body, the more fat your body will automatically burn off. This is because muscle naturally burns off fat. Also, if you place a ton of your effort on working out your larger muscle groups (legs, back, etc.) by way of compound weight training (resistance training on multiple body parts such as squats, lunges, deadlifts, bench press), you can burn off a ton of calories per session and increase overall strength.

3. High intensity short cardio - Instead of long boring cardio, switch your cardio routine to short high intensity cardio or interval training. High intensity cardio or interval training will burn off more fat and at the same time, preserve muscle tissue. Some examples would be sprinting and heavy bag boxing.

4. Chromium - Chromium is a very powerful and inexpensive all natural supplement that will help you in increasing your metabolism, burning fat, helping build lean muscle tissue, and increasing your energy levels. The strange thing is, a lot of people never even heard of chromium?! See my post here where I go a little more in detail about this "wonder supplement".

5. Improve your digestive system - Check out my post here where I talk about the top 7 ways to improve your digestive system to help accelerate weight loss.

So, there you have it, my top 5 natural ways to lose weight fast 100% naturally. There are many other ways you can lose weight fast naturally, but those mentioned above are the methods I've used consistently in my own quest to lose weight, burn fat, and build lean muscle. They have worked wonders for me in developing my new physique and my overall internal health.

Oops...one more thing, I hate talking about ways to lose weight without mentioning the most important principles to do so. Now, these principles are not based around losing weight "fast", but they must be included in your plan...for life....not just for the length of some diet:

1. Drink plenty of water daily - I recommend 1/2 your body weight in ounces....yes that much!
2. Get plenty of sleep - I know this is difficult due to our busy lifestyles, but try to get at least 7-8 hours every night.
3. Proper nutrition - Protein, fiber, healthy fats (mono/polyunsaturated), whole grains, and foods rich in vitamins and minerals (fruits/veggies).

Okay, it's time for me to get my delicious double rich chocolate protein shake, so I'm going to end this here! lol

Good luck with your weight loss goals and please, STAY AWAY from unnatural ways to lose weight fast!
