\nBy now, we all know the benefits of guzzling gallons of water. But the icing on the glass is that you can benefit some more by throwing in a few cubes. When you drink iced water, your body needs to use over 40 calories just to bring the water to room temperature in order to absorb water into the system, thereby forcing your system to burn, baby, burn.<\/p>\n
\nThis may sound too good to be true, but oxygen can help you slim down. Concentrate and take a deep breath; suck the air in till you feel it way down in your stomach, not just your chest. When your breathe in, try to exhale longer than you inhale. This eliminates toxins that will otherwise be stored as fat.<\/p>\n
\nIf you find yourself succumbing to your sweet tooth after dinner every night \u00e2\u20ac\u201d when you\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re least likely to indulge in physical activity to burn it \u00e2\u20ac\u201d turn back the clock. Have your dessert after breakfast. Not only will the sugar kick help you at work, you will also burn it off more efficiently since your body is in high metabolism mode. Likewise, avoid high-carb foods such as pizza and rice at dinner; such indulgences in the morning are a lesser evil.<\/p>\n
\nResearch suggests that certain smells can trick the brain into believing that the stomach is full. Among these aromas are that of coffee (especially flavoured), peppermint and green apple. Awareness about aromatic pleasures of food only heightens any gastronomic experience.<\/p>\n
\nHot food is more satisfying that its refrigerated counterparts. Warm bread feels oven-fresh, and even eliminates the need for butter. Steamed vegetables are more feel-good when compared to a cold salad. Follow the exact opposite philosophy at night: The colder your room, the more heat your body requires, thereby utilising more calories to provide it.<\/p>\n
\nKill cravings for sinfully gooey, melt-in-the-mouth chocolate by taking in a whiff of a strong perfume. If you don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t want to lug a bottle of scent along, a perfumed handkerchief is good enough. Just pull that hanky out when you pass a restaurant or a roadside food stall.<\/p>\n
\nInstead of stuffing your face at two to three major meals, eating about six smaller, well-balanced meals makes sense. I also recommend in-between snacks like a handful of peanuts or a salad.<\/p>\n
\nDon\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t forget to celebrate when you have lost even a little weight. I make it a point to attend doggie parties; I end up running more than the dogs and work out without even thinking about it!<\/p>\n
\nAvoid sprinkling salt on food, and sugar on your cereal. Excessive salt leads to water retention, and everyone knows how high calorie sugar is. Try not to eat while
\nchatting with friends.<\/p>\n
\nSack your maidservant; you probably crib about her inefficiency anyway. This gives you double the benefit: a sparkling, clean home and a toned body.<\/p>\n
\nThe bigger the caramel popcorn serving or ice cream tub, the cheaper it gets. If this is how you think, it\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s time you introduced your waistline to some economising. Make it a point to ask for the smallest: a small-sized single-scoop ice cream cone, a tiny bag of calorie-laden chips… If you can\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t deprive yourself of junk food altogether, at least try to sin in smaller measures.<\/p>\n
\nBeing sloppy equals burning fewer calories. You will burn at least 10% more calories if you choose to sit up straight rather than recline. And keep that spine erect while standing and walking instead of slouching.<\/p>\n
\nThis isn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t just for romantic pleasure. Dim lights help reduce appetite. On the contrary, bright lighting acts as a stimulant, thereby making you overeat.<\/p>\n
\nEven if you\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ve forced yourself to switch to low-fat food, it doesn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t necessarily translate into tasteless chow. A liberal sprinkling of your favourite spice \u00e2\u20ac\u201d be it chilli, pepper or clove \u00e2\u20ac\u201d will not only make the dish in question more tempting, it will also rev up your metabolism and help you burn calories at a faster pace.<\/p>\n
\nDrinking from a straw and chewing gum incessantly only send air directly to your stomach and make you feel and look bloated. Stop being an airhead.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
