Do you need a holiday? Would you love a holiday?Now, I’m not talking about a vacation at the beach we should all have one of those every once in a while)I’m referring to a vacation from a calorie restriction diet.

It is not good for you to deprive yourself of things that you love.This is by for the best way to destroy your fat loss efforts and emotionally disturb yourself.

When you crave something bad enough, it actually raises your stress levels, which raises your cortisol levels.A little hormone known as Cortisol causes stress levels to rise and your body to put on excess pounds of fat.Notice all the new, hot supplements on the market which try to block this from happening.What a joke.

What does this tell you? It means that skipping out on junk foods such as chocolate dunkin doughnuts can be bad for your metabolism.Now hold on, I’m not giving you permission to scarf down the whole thousand calorie item. The beauty of a natural detox and weight loss program is that there is room for errors when you add this free day.

Current Research shows that a huge calorie surge keeps your metabolism from slowing down to a snails pace.

A good way to implement this into your lifestyle is to:Give yourself 1 free day a week where you can eat whatever you would like to eat and as much of it as you would like to stuff your face withOr, you can let yourself have 3 different meals spread out across the week to gorge yourself on your favorite goodies.

The best vacations are planned. You know when you are taking them. For example, If you like ice cream, make Wednesday and Sunday your ice cream days. The other alternative is to have 3 meals a week that you can use on any day.

SIDE NOTEDo you understand what this means? I have just given you permission to eat whatever you want in as much as you want.Ice cream, doughnuts, frenchfries, and lots of cheesy items make the list.Believe it or not, a holistic nutrition program is not just about strict dieting. As you can see, it is possible to have your cake and eat it too.

Free days are designed to keep you from going crazy emotionally and to give a quick boost your metabolism.

Another reason to take a free day is to gauge how you feel after eating unhealthy fats and white sugars.You will feel sleepy an hour after your meal, and you just won’t have the energy you have while eating healthy.
