In Part 1 and Part 2 of my New Fat Loss Food Pyramid, I revealed how to use meal timing and food combinations to maintain an anabolic fat burning environment every minute of every day.
Today I’m back with part 3 which shows you how the size of your hands can help you burn more fat.
Ok, I know it’s sounds weird, but this is THE best way to monitor your food intake to consistently maintain a fat burning environment round the clock.
After you discover this method you’ll NEVER have to count calories or grams again. Ever.
You’ll discover how your fist, palm, and thumbs are directly related to how many calories and grams you should be consuming on a daily basis to burn more fat.

How To Lose Up To 2 Pounds While Cheating On Christmas And New Year’s Day
Let’s face it. Cheating on our nutrition plan is a part of life, so the best way to succeed is to find a life-long approach towards this behavior.
We ALL cheat on our nutrition plan (especially this time of year) so why not try to do it strategically.
The following holiday plan is a simple guide Wendy created so you can strategically splurge on Christmas Day or at any of your holiday events this year without the worry of gaining any fat. Most people experience a weight loss of 2 pounds or more when this plan is followed exactly.
It may look familiar to many of you from Thanksgiving or from our other materials, but it’s always good to be reminded of specific cheating strategies.
If you don’t have our meal plans to follow then here are some guidelines for you.
1. Consume 5 to 6 small meals daily
2. Make sure every meal contains a lean protein source and a fibrous veggie
3. Consume 1 tablespoon of friendly fat in 2 of your daily meals
4. Only consume starches with your meals as indicated on the plan below
5. Women drink at least 80 ounces of water daily, men drink at least 100 ounces.
Ok…here’s the plan to follow along with the basics above.
• Saturday December 19th
Baseline Day (2 starchy carb meals with protein
meals before 3pm)
• Sunday December 20th
Baseline Day (2 starchy carb meals with protein
meals before 3pm)
• Monday, December 20th thru Thursday, December 24th –
Deplete Days (no starches) or Carb Down days (1 starchy carb with
protein meals before 3pm) – you choose based on how much
you want to cheat. If you are new to Macro-Patterning, then we
suggest deplete days…which means under 20 grams total carbs
per day.
• Christmas Day – CHEAT!!!
This plan works best if you have small amounts of food every
few hours once you rise, until your big meal then OVEREAT!!!
(Yes that is what I said). This will force your body into an
anabolic response and ultimately help you lose weight. You
might even break into a mild sweat or get hot from the calorie
overload.
• Saturday, December 26th – The Day After: This day is the most
important part of the Holiday Plan. – DEPLETE!!!
You must make this a deplete day (under 20 grams of impact carbs)
and cardio activity is suggested first thing in the morning for 45
minutes to one hour if you are capable.
If you know that you cannot deplete or at least Carb-down
(have one starch with breakfast) the day after then don’t do
the over-eat plan above because it will not work to lose weight.
I personally find that Carbing-down is best the day after a Cheat Day
because my appetite is usually higher, especially after cardio.
• Sunday, December 27th – Do a Baseline Day (2 starches with
protein meals before 3pm) along with your other normal meals,
OR do no starches until your last meal and have what you want.
You choose – if you are new to our strategies then we suggest a
Baseline Day.
• Monday, December 28th - Back to whatever plan you are on or start
carbing down or depleting again to Cheat AGAIN on New Year’s Day.
You can also re-arrange this and apply it to ANY holiday, event, or special occasion. ?
Following a plan like this is what can make fitness fun for the holidays and most importantly help keep you on track.
Hopefully this will allow all of you enjoy all your holidays this year!

Every fat loss and fitness journey starts with the foundation necessary to succeed. Even though everybody wants a flat stomach or six-pack abs so they can fit into those “skinny-jeans” again and or take their shirt off at the beach this is an “outside-in” approach. If you really want success your fat burning program must have a long-term-lifestyle approach.
This means starting with an “inside-out” approach and finding your reason “why”.
We know that fat-loss and fitness are the catalyst to fulfillment in every area of life, that’s why I start out by asking you to find your reason “why”.
The one thing every person has in common that succeeds with their fat-loss program and their ability to build habits is that we all have…or had a big enough reason “why”.
So what’s yours? I hate to admit it, but sometimes it’s hard for me to talk about my reason “why” without crying because this information has had such an impact on my life.
Seriously, you can see the original before and after pictures and read part of the story right here; My Story
Ok, enough of the sappy stuff…let teach you about synergy!
After you found your reason “why”, you have to make up your mind that it’s big enough to build long term habits.
It won’t do you any good to use the super fast fat burning strategies we give you if you decide to go on some crazy diet or just want to use this temporarily to get to your initial goals.
The Get Lean In 12 fat-burning program is alllll about building long term lifestyle habits through synergy…period.
So if you want to program your body to be a “fat-burner” all day long, you need to learn about making synergy part of your everyday life…consistently.
The 3 components that create “synergy” will guarantee your long term fat loss success…so you can keep the weight off permanently.
How do you do you create synergy in your fat burning program?
By using Get Lean In 12;
Cardio workouts
Strength training routines and…
Fat burning nutrition
All 3 thing must be used together consistently to create a synergistic fat-burning effect. I go over these 3 powerful strategies in detail in the video above.
If you can synergistically use these 3 components consistently…not perfectly, the fat will melt off and your approach will build habits so that your fat-burning program will last a lifetime.
