your body needs it to replace the ones you burnt off.<br />

worst for your abs-cut them out from your diet<br />
completely. Added sugar is also hidden in various<br />
foods. So it is very important to read the ingredient<br />
lists on foods.<br />

of fat burning hormones.<br />

high in monounsaturated fatty acids include olive<br />
oil, avocados, nuts <strong>and</strong> seeds. Try to eat plenty<br />
of whole grains, nuts, legumes, fruits, vegetables,<br />
dairy, fish <strong>and</strong> unprocessed meat.<br />
