Boost your Metabolism

Here's a nice article from the Health Magazine website that Paula (amruby) turned me on to ... As we all know, our metabolism can be lowered by our restriced caloric intake from our WLS. In order to combat that, it's really important that we work on boosting our metabolism. Also, remember that when we are heavier, it takes more calories and a high metabolism just to carry on the minimal daily activities. As we lose much of that mass our resting metabolic rate, or the rate at which we burn calories just to maintain basic life functions such as breathing, digesting food, etc. drops, so anything we can do to Boost our Metabolism is definitely a step in the right direction.

Here's the link to the article: http://www.health.com/health/slideshow/0,26086,1717995-1,00.html?PromKey=XET
