Here are some of the things that she mentioned in her blog: “All these foods (super foods) are aligned with the main principles for achieving weight loss. They help increase your metabolism and give you more satisfaction per chew. Meals with fiber and protein make you feel fuller for longer and prevent you from over-indulging. Aim for foods with 5 grams of dietary fiber per serving. Have a high-fiber carbohydrate (satisfying fuel) source and a low-fat protein source (sustainer) at each eating time, because protein takes longer to digest. Eat within an hour and a half after waking and every 4 hours throughout the day to keep your metabolism up.” Kirstie Alley also drank Organic Liason's metabolism boosting drink to help her lose weight quicker.
