Drink plenty of water: Water is great for the body. Not only does it keep you hydrated, it also removes harmful toxins from your body. So, when you feel hunger pangs, reach for a glass of water instead of all that junk food. This will fill up your stomach while also keeping you fit and healthy. Often we mistake thirst for hunger, so remember that.
02/10Lift Weights
Doing some exercise is one of the best ways in which you can ensure that you end up with a fit and toned body. If you're a novice when it comes to lifting weights, go to the gym and take a group session first. It'll help you figure out what works the best for you. And then you can focus on that and figure things out eventually.
03/10Call a friend to help you out
When you start with your diet or your exercise session, there are going to be times when you feel like you won't be able to pull through. In these times it is necessary to have the right kind of motivation. So, call a friend, ask them to come over and help you get through that exercise session of yours.
04/10Practise yoga and meditation
There's nothing like yoga to help tone your body. Meditation will help bring your mind and body at peace and will create a zen space for you. This way you can take your time to achieve the goals that you want for your body. While the process may be slow, it is also incredibly relaxing and calm.
05/10Work on your posture
You should start working on your posture from the moment you wake up. The more you stand up straight, the better it will be for your posture and will help tone up the muscles deep down that surround your spine. This will help you tone your body overall and will get you all ready to fit into that dress.
06/10Rise early
Trust us, early to bed and early to rise is a good thing. Your body's metabolism works really well in the morning so this is ideally the time you should be exercising. This will help boost your metabolism for the rest of the day. So, even when you're relaxing, you'll be burning those calories.
07/10Avoid sugar
Try and avoid foods that contain sugar and avoid sugary drinks. Eat healthy foods like protein (eggs, turkey, chicken) or unrefined carbohydrates (brown pasta, brown rice, and wheat) as these can help prevent your sugar levels from spiking and then plummeting. This way you'll feel full for longer and you'll end up eating less.
08/10Don't put a ban on any food
Be logical. If you put a ban on certain kinds of food like chocolate, you will only keep thinking about it and then you'll end up eating like half a kilo of the thing. So, rather than being stingy, eat in moderation and allow yourself a few pieces. This way you'll satisfy those cravings while also staying healthy.
09/10Eat when you're hungry
Understand that when you avoid eating, your body thinks that you're starving and that you won't be able to take care of it, so it starts to slow down to reserve energy. Then, when you do eat, your body takes this as an opportunity to store reserves and makes you eat extra.
10/10Don't force yourself to eat
Yes, it is polite to finish your food and clean your plate up; however, it does not give you the best physical results. So, no matter what anybody says, do not force yourself to eat. If you're full, stop eating. You don't owe anybody an explanation for this.
