One cannot be humble and aware of oneself at the same time.

Looking good is feeling good. And you can use this as a great way to stay motivated. If you need to lose fat around your belly or thighs, no matter what your size, always have a pair of jeans or a shirt or dress that’s one size smaller in your wardrobe. Try it on as frequently as you can. Subliminally, this motivates you to slim down, stay focused and make the right choices. Makes you wonder, yes. But works like a charm.
Get at least 8 hours of good sleep every day. There is wisdom in the belief that you lose weight when you sleep soundly because REM activity in the brain actually burns calories and also raises the body’s internal temperature, which is again useful to burn fat.
Drink a glass of hot water as soon as you wake up and just before you retire to bed. You can even add a tease spoon of honey and squeeze some lime into it if you are not averse to the taste on waking up. This cleanses the gut and cuts the grime from whatever you eat. Also, drink 8-10 glasses of water every day and help your body get rid of water soluble fats. That way, you are only left with the non-soluble fat to burn, which brings us to the next one.
Set aside 5 to 10 minutes each morning and evening to exercise and tone your belly. It’s really simple- lie on your back and raise your arms and feet in a boat position and lie back down again. Repeat 10- 15 times. You can also do a variation of sit-ups and alternate this every second day. Remember to take deep breaths in and out. You’ll see the inches reduce in no time!
Any tummy flattening tip would be incomplete without stopping it at the cause- cutting fat from your diet. But most people can’t resist fatty food because it’s so tasty. If you follow all the above tips, your body will actually tell you to stay away from too much fat. But to give it a push, try including more salads, fruits, and nuts, fresh vegetables and juices instead of fried or cheesy junk food, soft drinks, and alcohol. Don’t substitute it all at once, give your taste buds time to actually relish healthy food.
