1. Stop wearing comfortable clothes around the house.

I love nothing more than lounging around in a pair of stretchy, bum-hugging yoga pants every single day, but I always find that I’m less likely to gorge on my beloved Cinnamon Toast Crunch cereal if I’m wearing a pair of skinny jeans…especially when I’m also wearing a slightly-too-tight-for-me sweater that draws attention to my growing muffin top.

2. Tape a picture of yourself to your fridge and cupboards.

There’s nothing more powerful than having a picture of a hotter, trimmer version of yourself staring at you every time you reach for the Twinkies. Trust me on this one.

3. Set a goal.

Whether you want to shed those last pesky pounds of baby weight or squeeze into that new pair of skinny jeans, write your goal down on a Post-it note and stick it somewhere you’ll see it over and over and over again. I have one that says, “I WANT TO LOOK GOOD NAKED!” stuck to this computer screen.

(spoiler alert: I still don’t look good naked)

4. Write down everything you eat.

Have you ever done this? I started yesterday and I was so embarrassed about the number of calories I consume on a daily basis (why do I eat so much while I’m preparing dinner?) that I couldn’t wait to go to the gym this morning to run it all off.

5. Team up with a friend.

I don’t know about you, but I’m not one for organized fun, so the whole notion of having a gym buddy really doesn’t appeal to me. But when 2 of my college roommates asked if we could compare gym notes to keep each other motivated to look hot by bikini season, I was all over it. And you know what? It feels pretty awesome that I’m the ONLY ONE who made it to the gym in the last 5 days!

6. Download some good tunes.

Nothing gets me pumped more than listening to some loud, upbeat, blood-pumping songs while I’m sweating at the gym, so I’ve started to reward myself with a new iTunes download for every 5 workouts I do. And it’s keeping me motivated!

7. Keep your workout fresh.

For a long time, I was doing the same routine every single time I went to the gym, and I found it made the time drag on forever and ever. So now I switch it up a bit. One day I’ll do the elliptical machine (aka “hell”), some days I’ll go for a run, and every once in a while I’ll grab a magazine and hop on a bike for 30 minutes. It keeps things a little more interesting and helps pass the time!

8. Reward yourself.

I like to set short-term goals around calories (if I make it to the gym 3 times in a week, I get an extra glass of wine on Friday and Saturday nights) and long-term goals around clothes (if I squeeze back into those capris, I’m treating myself to a hot pair of wedge heels), but you can do whatever works for you. Just make sure to keep your rewards motivating so you have something to work towards. And don’t cheat!

One last thing… you should try this 10-second “morning trigger” that burns up to 2 pounds of belly fat per day…

“All this by a 10-second morning trigger?” I asked.

I met an old friend for lunch last month and I was super impressed with how good she looked.

She said, “It’s not so much about the morning trigger, but more about how they help raise your body’s low core temperature to dramatically increase your fat burning metabolism and improve your health and appearance.”

Even though I was skeptical, I’ve been struggling with my weight over the last few years, so I gave it a shot and watched the same video she did.

Well, it’s only a couple weeks later and you know what they say about how “you can’t transform your body overnight”…

They’re right — it actually took me 19 days to lose 24 pounds.

Now it’s my girlfriends asking ME what I’M doing differently

Imagine waking up every morning full of energy and loving what you see in the mirror…

Imagine enjoying the foods you love: pasta, wine, or even a dessert — completely guilt-free.

And imagine feeling good and living your life without obsessing about every single calorie you eat…

All while knowing your health is being protected by one of the most powerful natural healing rituals ever discovered.
