How To Wake Up Thinner!

lose weight
Who doesn’t want to slim down or lose weight while STILL eating their favorite things, not counting every single calorie, or taking up permanent residence at the gym?

Well, great news! Experts say that you can still lose weight by making small changes to your daily routine. In fact, they say that it’s actually one of the best ways to lose since you’re more likely to maintain little habit tweaks, as opposed to much larger ones.

Buy the right PB.

“Buy natural varieties of peanut butter and pour off the oil sitting on top. Each serving will have 20 fewer calories and 2 to 3 fewer grams of fat. It’s a small difference that’ll add up to a couple of pounds per year.”

Eat popcorn.

“Skimping on fiber will make you gain weight. Forget the pretzels and go for a bag of low-fat popcorn. It has five times the fiber and only 90 calories for six cups, so it’s filling and satisfying.

Dance, dance, dance.

“Kick up your heels and go dancing with your girlfriends—or have a solo dance session at home after dinner. Fast-tempo dances are not only a blast to do, but in an hour you’ll torch 400 to 500 calories. That’s equivalent to light jogging on the treadmill, but it’s way more fun!”

Switch your workout up.

“At the gym, lift one set of heavier weights than you’re used to. And on your walk or run, add backward walking and sideways shuffling in one-minute bursts.

You’ll challenge your muscles in new ways, work them at a variety of angles, and improve your balance. These things will tone you up and burn extra calories.”
