       INTRODUCTION

      How can you boost your metabolism so that you burn more calories through everyday activities? What weight should you be, and what’s the easiest way to achieve it? Does your chocolate addiction need to stop you getting into your size eight skinny jeans? Read on to find out the sneaky secrets of successful calorie burning…

No more saying ‘No’ to Ben & Jerry’s or burgers or even booze. All you need do is count the calories you consume and make sure you burn them off again before they manage to settle implacably on your hips and thighs. Simple as that!
