To lose fat and gain weight you want to gain weight through low calorie sources of quality protein and work out regularly.

An ideal source of this protein, and the product I use for this exact purpose, is the Isagenix system.

The Isagenix system is a series of protein shakes and natural cleansers that help you gain lean weight and lose toxin-rich fat cells.

The protein shakes contain high-quality whey protein, among a myriad of other vitamins and minerals which are both rare in your daily diet and excellent for your body. These shakes will allow your body to access the resources it needs to build lean muscle if you work out.

To lose body fat, there is a "cleanse" day, once a week or every other week depending on the system you order. That day you don't eat, just drink water and a special cleanse formula. It is not malnutritious because the cleanse has more than enough essential vitamins and minerals to keep your body running at top shape. Furthermore, it contains many, many natural antioxidants, which clean toxins out of your body, but more importantly the ones stored in fat cells. By cleaning the toxins out, it helps clear up excess fat, and without the toxins you will start feeling better almost instantly.

The cleanse has provided me with much needed energy to wake up in the morning easily and keep me alert and alive all day.

Just check it out at

Your body has three main sources of energy:
1. Carbs
2. Fat
3. Muscle

After your carbs are all burned up your body converts fat to energy to use. Exercising a lot will make you lose body fat, as your body converts it to energy. However, many types of exercise also allow for muscle growth (if you have any serious joggers as friends ask them to flex their calf). Muscle is the heaviest type of body tissue, so more muscle = more weight.

So yes, it is indeed possible to loose body fat, but gain weight!

Simple. You see, when you work out, your going to first start losing weight because your muscles are working on toning themselves. (You know building a shape, getting stronger, etc.) Anyways, after a while you begin getting harder and stronger muscles and that's when you begin to see your muscles get really hard and tough but you'll also be losing weight. That type of weight is a good thing. (Fat tissue weighs less than muscle tissue!)

Hope this helps :)

When you lose body fat, and you are working out you gain muscle. Muscle weighs more that fat.

You should combine cardio to loose the fat with a good protein shake in the mornings and lift weight to create muscle weight

You increase your metabolism. This allows your body to naturally burn more fat in your everyday activities but at the same time retain your muscle mass you build from working out. Since muscle weighs more than fat, you will gain weight.

There are several ways to increase metabolism but lets look at the factors that drive your metabolism first.

* 1. Genetics - you have very little control, but you are not a prisoner of your genes.
* 2. Lean Muscle Mass - this one throws most people off because women think, oh no I dont want muscles and men think I guess I have to look like a body builder. Lean muscle mass is simply your weight minus the weight of your organs, bones, fluids and fat. You increase lean muscle mass primarily through eating properly, resistance exercise, and a lifestyle that doesnt promote catabolizing activites (smoking, heavy drinking and drug use)
* 3. Frequency of meals - the more meals the more the metabolic processes take place in your body and the faster your metabolism.
* 4. Water Intake - dehydration is a major drag on metabolism.
Most people are dehydrated and they dont know it.
* 5. Sleep - getting enough rest allows the body to function at a higher metabolic level.

Before beginning any program to speed up your metabolism its important to know what your RMR (Resting Metabolic Rate) is. This is essentially your metabolism because its the number of calories you burn from normal everyday activities.
The goal is always to make this number as high as possible, because the higher your RMR its is more likely you will be lean or thin.
Here are the most important factors that influence RMR or metabolism.

Body Weight - A person with a greater body weight will have a higher RMR than a smaller person because their body has to work "harder" to support and maintain the extra weight. A weight gain that is attributed to a gain in fat mass will not affect RMR as much as a gain in muscle mass; however, overall weight gain regardless of body composition results in a higher RMR.

Body Composition - If two people are the same body weight, the person with more muscle will have a higher RMR than the person with less muscle because muscle is more metabolically active than fat. In fact, muscle burns two to four times more calories than fat at rest. Therefore, as a person gains muscle mass, their RMR is likely to increase.

Age - Resting metabolic rate gradually declines with age on the order of 2-3% per decade

Gender - Men have a higher RMR than women, primarily because of greater muscle mass.

Exercise - The effect of exercise on RMR is dependent on a number of factors, including the type of exercise, intensity and duration as well as individual and environmental factors. Burning calories even after the exercise session is over is referred to as excess post-exercise oxygen consumption (EPOC). With cardiovascular training, RMR can be elevated for as long as eight hours after a 60-minute session of moderate intensity. A vigorous strength training session of 90 minutes can elevate RMR 11-12% two hours after the session; RMR can remain elevated as much as 9% the following morning. Most people, other than elite athletes, do not exercise at a high enough intensity to trigger a significant EPOC.

Food - The consumption of food creates an increase in energy expenditure called the thermic effect of food (TEF). This increase in energy expenditure is due to the energy the body needs to digest and absorb food. TEF peaks approximately 60-90 minutes after eating and may increase RMR for up to five hours depending on the size and composition of the meal.

Thyroid Levels - Untreated hypothyroidism can lower RMR by approximately 30%.

Menopause - On average, women gain about one pound per year during menopause. Weight gains may be related to decreases in muscle mass which decreases RMR.

Calorie restriction and exercise - Restrictive diets consisting of less than 1,000 calories per day can result in an acute decrease in resting metabolic rate. Adding an exercise program to a diet can preserve some but not all lean muscle tissue.
