20 Foods to Boost Your Metabolism Delicious, nutrient-dense foods like chocolate and avocado can help you lose weight. When trying to lose weight, we tend to fixate on the foods we aren’t supposed to eat. We salivate over cheesecake at the coffee shop, eyeball our partners’ pizza and dream about cheese, glorious cheese. Instead, shift the focus to the delicious and healthy foods that actually speed up metabolism, aiding in weight loss and preventing the storage of more fat. You might just get so hooked on green tea, yogurt, avocado and hot peppers that you find yourself cheating on your former favorites, not on your diet.Green tea If you want to get your metabolism revving, choose green tea over black tea or coffee. Apples That oft-repeated adage about apples and doctors is backed by solid science. Low-fat yogurt Probiotics in products that contain live bacteria, like yogurt, help beneficial bacteria in the gut process food more efficiently. Celery Cinnamon Did you know that cinnamon is a natural blood sugar stabilizer? Oats

Smokeout Urban Decay recently sent me their new Book of Shadows (IV), so I obviously had to play around with it. If you follow me on twitter, you might remember me tweeting a preview pic of the pretty butterfly packaging. Now, I want you to keep in mind two important things about me: I judge books by their cover and I'm a sucker for gimmicks. Read on. Many of the colors in this palette are more subdued, though Urban Decay is well known for their vibrant colors. They're still really pigmented, though, and if you (like me) do not own the Naked Palette (you should - and so should I), this is a nice change from the usual brights. The palette comes with a QR coded tutorial card, mini speaker and a setup for your phone (so you can watch your tutorials and do your makeup at the same time).
Clean Eating Snacks for All-Day Energy 146 I don’t think about food much and am not one to cook much either. I’m on healthy-eating autopilot and that suits me just fine. But why should I keep my eating lifestyle to myself? I like to share, even if I don’t like to think about food much. I snack because it keeps my blood sugar at an even keel – I’m wicked cranky without a regular infusion of food. I consider healthy eating to be a lifestyle, not a diet. Snacks should be a balance of complex carbohydrates, lean protein, and healthy fats. You can use the following list as pre- or post-workout snacks, mini-meals, between-meal snacks, or evening snacks. I’ve put these snacks together in a certain way here, but feel free to mix ‘em up any way you please. For each snack below, choose one protein and one complex carbohydrate.

What Travis Says Ten Great Books to Expand Your Horizons I've always been a voracious reader and even though I get most of my reading fix from scientific journals these days, I try to squeeze in an interesting book whenever I get a chance. "Interesting" to me usually means whatever topic I find interesting at the moment. And when something piques my interest, I binge read. I'll plow through scores of books on a topic, and I'll only slow down when my obsession wanes. In my youth, I was obsessed with the horror genre, fantasy books, and science fiction. I took my reading very seriously, and kept a notebook in which I reviewed each one of them once I finished. In my late teens, after I discovered strength training and became interested in nutrition, I read everything I came over on those topics. In my early twenties, I kept reading all sorts of books on nutrition and physiology, but I had periods where I drifted into entirely different subjects - like film theory, evolutionary theory, behavioral science and psychology, for example. P.S. 3. 4. 5.
