Don’t just do the minimum, take the extra steps to get maximum results.

Exercise
Exercising will ensure you keep off the pounds and receive the maximum benefits of the 999 Diet. You may not be a naturally active person or you may be a very busy person, but only spending 9 minutes a day working your body out will be enough to sky rocket your results. 999 Diet practitioners who gained the most out of this program mixed in at least 9 minutes of workouts each day, so if you want to gain the results they did, you’ll make sure to keep yourself active. |

Breathe
Seeing as how you have to breathe every day just to stay alive, you’d think that more people would actually know how to do it correctly. However, the fact of the matter is that many people don’t get the most out of their breathing. Try breathing in and out deeply and slowly for ten minutes each day. This will relax you and make you focused for the day ahead. In fact, entering into these breathing exercises will help you out with food cravings. Whenever you begin feeling the need to deviate from the 999 Diet due to food cravings, simply breath. You will be surprised to find how effective it is. |

Be Nice
People tell us not to think too much about ourselves, but it’s ALL about you. After all, who knows you like you know yourself? So make sure to do something nice for yourself everyday – something that makes you feel good. Go to a movie, make a trip to the beach, hang out with a good friend that makes you feel good about yourself. |
 |
Yoga/Pilates
Joining a yoga, Pilates class, or something similar will help you control your level of stress. You will become more flexible, physically toned, and calm. This will help with your digestion and improve your blood flow. |
 |
Massage
Relax those muscles by heading over to a sauna or masseuse to release all of that stress. Doing this once a week will help you relax so your body can burn more calories. |
 |
Shots!
Well, not exactly the type of shots you were hoping for, but they are much better for you. Wheat grass is the mother of all greens. Rich with enzymes, protein, and almost every vitamin you can think of, wheat grass shots will kick start your immune system, boost your metabolism, help your digestive system, and keep you looking and feeling younger. |
 |
Keep it Raw
Between intervals make sure to primarily eat raw fruits and vegetables. This will ensure faster natural digestion and help out with your body’s natural detoxing. So stay away from any commercially prepped food such as microwave meals and other foods that contain preservatives and chemicals. |
 |
Boost
Consuming produce such as sea vegetables and nuts will boost your metabolism naturally. Foods such as celery, asparagus, broccoli, and grapefruit help you burn more calories by the simple act of digesting it. Spirulina powder and bee pollen (even including them in your juices) will also help your body metabolize food faster, which will make sure you don’t feel hungry even after a small meal. |
 |
Control
Keeping control of yourself may seem easier said than done, but it’s not too difficult if you consider keeping control of yourself as a set of circumstances. For example, “the best mirror is in the eyes of your friends”. Only surround yourself with positive, supportive people, making sure to get rid of those that would criticize and perpetuate any negativity. By controlling your situation and your circumstances, you control your outcome. |
Hey Guys – I just want to say that I think these are great. One thing I think is really important if you live in a city is to get away sometimes. It really helps center you and get you focused
Getting away is crucial. Thank heavens I own a small farm house!
Keeping control of my cravings is definitely the hardest for me. I really like eating nasty snack food. I should just try to lock my cabinet. Or just throw everything away.
I do Bikram Yoga which really helps with breathing.
Isn’t that just, like, stretching?
Don’t knock it til you tried it. Yoga is as rigorous as running. Your heartrate is beating fast from holding the positions, and you expand your lungs
agreed, just look at Jennifer Anniston. That’s yoga!
I have lost 85 pounds this year on the program and trust me excersie is cruicual not only here but all the time. but you dont have to run or do trialathons. I walk. but i make sure i do it every day and for at least a half hour. I think its worked for me.
It’s very hard for me to stay away from processed foods and from microwave dinners and stuff for lunch, I’ve been eating them for years and I’m so busy that seems like all I have time for. But I’m going to try! I know it’s worth it. Wish me luck!
Luck!!!!!!!
