Here are some ideas to burn fat and jack up your metabolism.

Eat More Protein: A recent study showed that people that ate a higher protein based diet burned 71 more calories than those that ate a lower protein diet. That may not seem like alot but that 71 calories turns into 7.4 pounds at the end of the year. Turkey bacon, eggs, nuts and cheese are all good.

Eat More Meals: Eating several small meals is an effective way to jack up your metabolism. Not eating a meal can have the opposite effect.

Eat Breakfast: Not Having breakfast can lower your metabolic rate by as much as ten percent. There is always time for breakfast. Men'a Health website recomends instant oatmeal, a breakfast bar, or leaving a bag of trail mix by the front door. All of these thing will barely add any time to your morning routine.

Drink Green Tea: The antioxidant Catechinis found in abundance in green tea. In a 12 week study run by the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, it was found that the people who consumed 690 milligrams of catechinis had smaller waists and lower body mass indexes than the people who did not.
