So, how do you maintain high leptin levels and lose weight at the same time?

Eat whole, natural foods that consist of vegetables, fruits, healthy fats and lean protein. Avoid foods that cause leptin resistance such as fructose corn syrup, sugar, high fat foods, refined carbohydrates and processed foods.
Never reduce calorie intake by too much and for too long. Instead, consider calorie cycling whereby maintaining a high metabolism while in a calorie deficit. Cycle calories by being in a deficit for 3 days and then increasing calorie intake to maintenance level for 1 day. Repeat this cycle until you've lost enough fat. Calorie cycling is effective for burning fat without sabotaging your metabolism.
Regular exercise helps to boost your metabolism and burn fat. Follow a workout program that includes resistance and cardio training. A combination of healthy eating and consistent workout is the key to managing your leptin levels and losing weight.
