Her new book “Six Weeks to Sleeveless and Sexy, The 5-Step Plan to Sleek, Strong, and Sculpted Arms” is available at a cost of of only $10!). Click to order the book.

During our interview, we discussed what we should eat, what mistakes most of women make while trying to loose weight naturally, how much is too much when we go to the gym, and much more. 

Below, I would like to share with you the article Want Hot Arms? Then Head to the Kitchen! by JJ Virgin, to give you an idea about the interview.

Of course, the right exercise is crucial for shaping slim & sexy arms but it
is only one part of my integrated program for creating the arms and body of
your dreams. You must also feed your arms so that you are building muscle
while burning off the fat. I am sharing three of my top tips from Six Weeks
to Sleeveless and Sexy that you can put into action right away.

How to “Feed Your Arms”:

1. Drink up. Be sure to drink eight or more glasses of pure spring water
in-between meals to keep your appetite at bay, support metabolism and burn fat. Don’t drink more than a few ounces with your meals because too much water during meals can dilute stomach acid and impair digestion. Drinking pure spring water throughout the rest of your day will also help your stress hormones stay balanced as even mild dehydration can raise stress hormones. And remember sodas, coffee and sugary sports drinks pretending to be water do not count as your daily water intake.

2. Eat a substantial breakfast. Research shows that people who eat a
substantial balanced breakfast of clean lean protein, high fiber carbs and
healthy fat lose more weight AND keep it off. Make a little time in the
morning and indulge in a satisfying meal that will keep you going for hours.
By the way, you don’t need to eat “breakfast” for breakfast. If you want a
turkey wrap for breakfast, then enjoy!

3. Follow your workout with clean lean protein and a high fiber carb. The amino acids from protein support muscle growth and recovery, plus your body uses carbs to refuel your muscle stores of energy (glycogen) to set you up for success during your next workout. Please skip the sports nutrition bars, which I always dub “adult candy bars.” And remember: Just because you worked out doesn’t mean it’s okay to saddle up to Ben or Jerry.

Breathe, smile and be happy.
