Actually yes a very special friend after spending the holidays overeating Smith -- -- -- many Americans make a New Year's resolution obviously to lose weight it's like a reset button but it rarely works its way out of blow it off but there is a way to pull it off so you can look and feel great lesson to -- I'm telling you I know this is true because my friend and colleague Gary Alexander is here as she actually works -- -- -- -- here in New York fox by WWW.

-- -- -- -- -- Before the dinner hour that Fox News Channel I had no idea and now the author of the quick and clean that he I know I cannot be any different talk about so many other things yeah.

Each other -- but now there's -- most of the -- here is that you know people try to going -- we say -- gonna go activism -- -- as we never.

That joint because it seems like this -- out exactly exactly we always make it as this big huge daunting challenge we put these crazy pressures on ourselves and we set up a diet.

That is impossible to stick to so you know if we could just appreciate food and appreciate food and its natural form that's -- clean eating is all about okay ditched the sauces and all the crazy stuff we put on food.

Just eat things.

And it's normal regular for everybody at fox are -- people I was talking about -- I did you were like the impetus for this.

So first of all this is mrs.

-- you have some commandments -- go through -- number one -- your body every three -- -- part of the reason why that's important is you wanna keep your metabolism working throughout the entire day the other issue with that is you -- get him to the point and we know this from being on television -- you do a show and then you -- to something else -- you know to six -- -- starving and our guys.

He desperately get a -- that would ever it is that you can grab you -- -- -- drive -- Well if you have stuff with you and you can just constantly.

Kinda forge a little bit our day long you'll never get to the point where starving and so you'll allow yourself to make a choice -- -- -- have to include lean protein -- -- -- -- -- That's everybody -- From people forget.

I'm kinda fat dairy got got got very good fat I -- very very good fat.

It's not gonna kill you infect your brain -- it.

You need it and if you eat that good fat than you're not gonna -- the bad I have to avoid heavily processed foods like yes absolutely all of the things that you get you know in snack tiles.

You know stuff that's like dry -- I mean even you know dried apples that's kind of processed why not just your regular apple -- -- much better for and one of the things to do you cannot you can obsess about calories calories and fat -- got to the -- -- -- do you not assessment is exactly up to listen to yourself yet to make sure that you're full you never want to start yourself.

Because that's just nothing but sabotage but obsessing about caller's is so ridiculous I think I mean some people.

Need to live that way they need to have a system of accounting.

But I really think if you can just relax and enjoy the good for that you're reading.

You're gonna be falling not have to worry about honestly she's not just I have not just saying it's good she's my friend really you have to read this book because it's testing that are very obvious that's how things are not obvious yes and kind of -- it's kind of just a roadmap and the outlook.

It's not the Bible it's a road map that's.

All that this is it kind of puts you in the right place.

And then you go off on your Tony Taylor things the way you like to thank you have little little -- partner that's you've got to do annuities -- okay -- pick your partners are basically you if you pretty -- you -- -- -- -- like your true that's -- -- -- we -- on a -- -- like a -- ourselves to -- boring bland stuff.

-- absolutely anything it's a replacement and it's all natural so it's not like when you know one of those past sweeteners that's questionable I'll run tests on -- management this is cinnamon cinnamon is really really good it raises your metabolism these are cinnamon sticks -- can obviously get.

On -- -- this you can just -- greater capsaicin.

I you know what I am not a hunch is that -- -- -- -- actually doing -- and that is something that you need to think about for sure the other thing that I love if you like spicy -- a little -- cayenne -- It's really really good it's really really hot and -- -- some stuff.

And then I love these Lakota menos it's basically -- -- the -- -- liquid protein.

That is made from soybeans so it's really yummy it's kind of like a soy -- the placement and if you are.

But conscious of yourself you need to think about and this is an example of one of your -- this is a -- -- you know with the lettuce -- sort of have the the recipe on our web site.

And it's very simple to its strengths and not that sprouts.

Obviously -- -- little looks like there's some thoughts on not.
