Fat Burning Foods

This is for Sierra, who says i never post anything!!!!!

        Did you know there's a few foods that will actually brun fat as u digest them? here they are!

 

* Celery - most people know that celery burns more calories than it is to eat it. so celery is a negative calorie food.

* Grapefruit- grapefruit is another fat burning food.... leave the sugar off the top though!

* Raw Nuts- I have a great recipe for a kinda of seed and nut bar that has tons of fat burning seeds and nuts.maybe if i can find it in writing i'll post it.... i have one every morning, they're amazing!
