Tip # 4: Boost your metabolism program


Welcome to the fourth tip in the Boost Your Metabolism program. I'm introducing eight tips teaching you life skills to gradually incorporate into your day.

Your goal for this tip is simply to eat only fresh fruit whenever you want or are offered dessert. This practice, if it becomes habitual, will cut down on all the 'calories
