5. Sleep 7-9 hours.
Something i've noticed about my heavier clients, is that most lead very stressed lives, and sleep very little (on average five hours!). Unless you are lucky enough to be able to nap in the day, you need at least seven hours sleep.
When we sleep, our bodies repair and our brains reset, much like a re-formatting of a computer hard-drive.
If you don't sleep or relax enough, your body releases Cortisol, a stress hormone which accelerates fat loss.
Use black out curtains, drink Valerian tea, drink less alcohol and go to bed before 10pm to aid good sleep. You should be able to rise naturally without the need of an alarm in the morning
