Method<\/a><\/strong> creator Cynthia Pasquella shared some tips about jump starting a weight loss plan. Some of her main points included super foods, metabolic imagery, food journaling and finding a support network.<\/p>\n<p>To help jump-start your weight loss, Cynthia discussed four super foods that will help you to feel great while starting a weight loss plan. These foods are beets, broccoli, hemp (either seeds or oil) and artichokes, many of which are featured in our <strong><a title=\"2012 Super Foods\" href=\"https:\/\/www.dietsinreview.com\/slideshows\/2012-super-foods\/chia-seeds\/\">2026 super foods list<\/a><\/strong>. All these plants are great sources of fiber, which she says is important for cleansing and can cut down on calories absorption. Cynthia herself is a vegan, so it&#8217;s no surprise that her super foods are all plants.<\/p>\n<p>Cynthia admits that one of the most unusual aspects of the P.I.N.K. Method is &#8220;thinking yourself thin&#8221; with &#8220;metabolic imagery.&#8221;\u00a0 She described one study where participants who used <strong><a title=\"Guided Imagery\" href=\"https:\/\/www.dietsinreview.com\/diet_column\/11\/guided-imagery-to-survive-the-dark-days-of-winter\/\">guided imagery<\/a><\/strong> to imagine their bodies burning calories were more successful at losing weight. Plus, it&#8217;s a very relaxing practice.<\/p>\n<p>Next, Cynthia discussed how keeping a food journal makes you twice as likely to achieve your weight loss goals. &#8220;Keeping a journal will keep you accountable,&#8221; she says. She always tells her clients to find a journal that they find appealing to use, maybe even one you think is pretty.<\/p>\n<p>She also addressed how to say motivated, emphasizing the importance of having a community of supportive women. Purchasing the PINK Method will also give you access to the PINK Method VIP website, which is also a great place to turn to when they have questions or are struggling to stay accountable.<\/p>\n<p><!--more-->Finally, Cynthia addressed how perception can affect your weight loss. She encourages everyone to stop thinking &#8220;I can&#8217;t&#8221; and start thinking &#8220;I&#8217;m choosing to not eat that,&#8221; which can help you to not fixate on unhealthy foods. &#8220;It&#8217;s certainly more empowering,&#8221; she adds.<\/p>\n<p>Of course, Cynthia talked about how the P.I.N.K. Method will incorporate these tips to set you up for success. Although the plan includes many healthy foods and a great approach to exercise, we worry that the program may encourage weight loss at too rapid a rate. Some users of the P.I.N.K. Method report losing as much as a pound per day, when the maximum rate of healthy weight loss should be one to two pounds per week. <strong><a title=\"Rapid Weight Loss\" href=\"https:\/\/www.dietsinreview.com\/diet_column\/01\/know-the-dangers-of-extreme-weight-loss\/\">Rapid weight loss<\/a><\/strong> can lead to a number of serious health conditions, including irregular heart rate and light headedness. However, eating nutrient-dense plants, food journaling and finding a community of support are all great pieces of advice, no matter what weight loss plan you choose.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Also Read:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><a title=\"Why Cynthia Pasquella's P.I.N.K.
