It may sound crazy, but there are some things that you can eat that will help boost that metabolism and get rid of some unwanted fat. But be warned, these foods won't work their miracle without having a well-balanced diet first. Sneaking these power foods in between junk foods will not work. So, no more dicey granola bars. Try these 6 super foods that help burn calories, and fast!

1. Kale

Next time you crave a salad, try adding some kale! It has appetite-suppressing qualities and the ability to clear toxins. The more your body rids of toxins, the more likely it is to have fewer cravings for sugars and processed foods!

2. Avocados

Finally, a reason to eat as much guac as we want! (Well, I guess moderation is key... even if its with guac). Avocados are a triple threat when it comes to your fat cells -- they turn off those fat stores, which causes your metabolism to increase! They taste amazing, and they're good for you? Bring on that guac!

3. Chia Seeds

The great thing about chia seeds is that they're so tiny and tasteless, yet they are abundant in nutrients! They are full of omega-3 fatty acids and help increase metabolism. So, soak them in warm water for 10-15 minutes and add them to your favorite yogurt, cereal, smoothie or salad!

4. Cinnamon

As amazing as Cinnamon Toast Crunch sounds, getting real cinnamon into our bodies is much more nutritional. With its amazing fat-burning qualities, cinnamon helps to transport glucose along quicker, so our fat storages don't stick around waiting to be filled up! So next time you have a cup of coffee or tea, add a sprinkle of cinnamon and feel the difference!

5. Coffee

I know some of you may be doing a happy dance right now -- but yes -- coffee helps stimulate adrenaline which tells your body to burn fat. Drinking black coffee is best, since milk tends to lower the fat burning potential of coffee. However, as always, one cup is the way to go.
