Healthy Eating habits for Slimming and Diet

2009-07-28T14:29:00.000-07:00

A well balanced nutritious food can only be recognized as a healthy diet. Conceptualizing Diet plans as starving for food is a false thing. Losing your weight in healthy way should be the main objective to any slimming and diet plans. Rather in some of the cases some diet plans results in harm to the health instead of being beneficial.

For an ideal diet plan you should certainly avoid some category of foods which include sugary or salty foods and alcohol. Eating healthily with control is the only thing which can let you reach to your health gain goal.

Food with carbohydrates and of starch provides main bulk of most meals. These foods include bread, fruits, cereals and vegetables, rice, pasta and potatoes. Starchy foods do contain fibre though which is excellent for bowel movement regularity and controlling appetite as you feel full after consumption.

One should look after for a balanced diet by carefully checking that healthy food doesn’t get convert to fatty food.

Fruit and vegetables should be consumed daily. Five portions of different varieties should be sufficient to promote good health as you get roughage or fibre as well as a multitude of essential vitamins and minerals to compliment your diet. The antioxidants you'll gain through consuming these foods are also great for keeping your body healthy. The risk of developing cancers and heart disease is immensely reduced. Constipation can also be prevented.

Most people consume more protein than they require. We are omnivores, so we eat a balanced diet naturally. Try to reduce the fat content of meat by removing as much as possible prior to consumption. Avoid thick, rich, creamy sauces that often accompany meat or fish, as part of meals. Oily fish is recommended to eat around once or twice a week. Omega 3 fatty acids found in oily fish such as mackerel and sardines help to prevent furring of the arteries which can lead to angina, heart attacks and strokes.

Low fat diets reduce the risk of heart attacks and strokes too and help you to sustain your ideal weight. Saturated fats should be avoided whilst unsaturated fats (found in sunflower oil, olive oil and low fat spreads) are healthier for you in small amounts. The consumption of sugary foods and drinks should be reduced immensely as well. They are high in calories and are bad for your teeth. Salty foods are also not good or you. You do require a small quantity of salt in your diet to ensure your body has enough sodium to perform its usual chemical reactions. Avoid fast foods, pre-packaged and processed foods to limit your salt intake. Low salt diets prove to be highly beneficial to your health. High blood pressure and heart disease can be prevented for longer.

Style Fashion Tips for Men after 40

2009-07-20T12:43:00.001-07:00

Crossing the age of 40 most of the men think that we’ve done everything in life so right and now it is the time to be stable. Unlike other factors of life style is being demanded by the society at whichever age you are. Men who has crossed the age of 40 needs more attention to their overall look even more. This post is dedicated to those men who actually wish to adopt a really good looking style which can make them feel again like a fresh young man.

Avoid fashion fads

Don’t go for a style which comes under the current style trends or the dressing style which is weird. Try and go for a timeless styling not a timely style. A t-shirt wear by a youngster having “Let’s be a partner…Where’s your girlfriend!” or "I wish your girlfriend would stop staring at me" written on it would surely not going to suit a men crossing 40s. You should now go for a wardrobe which can make you happy while seeing yourself into the mirror. Do not go for experimental dressing as you have established your impression in the society which you would surely not wish to ruin.

Leave the past behind

When certain looks cycle back around, they almost always return with a modernized twist, such as an updated cut or re-envisioned style. Turn your attention to aviator sunglasses, for example: Though they cycle around quite frequently, they always reappear with a slightly modified frame or lens that s different from their last go-round. As your look has come to appear so mature now, anything classic will suits you the most. A fit and slim body which has been maintained so carefully would invites everything so fine on it when the accessories and clothing style is of type classic.

Don't mistake business attire for stylish attire

Don’t mix-up your dress code with different occasions. Your office wear is by the way your office wear; don’t just continue it during party time even though you have been late to the party. Do not try something which is really shiny while going for job or during business trip. It makes very bad sense as far as your clothing sense is concern.

Keep it simple

As discussed just, loud patterns and flashy ties should be left to the younger generations. Fill your closet with a diverse collection of solids and/or pared-down prints that are unpretentious and unassuming. Don’t just try to be looking cool wearing a shirt with dark pink and other flashy color flowers on it. This would, of course, be going to earn other’s attention, but…but in negative way.

Last but not the least; don’t just feel your age from within. Remember that what you feel from within you look the same way to others. Do remember a thought that forty is a second twenty after finishing your first twenty!

Time to live Unbuttoned – Do you dare to get unbutton

2009-06-25T12:46:00.000-07:00

A revolutionary trend designed by one of the major player in Jeans styling industry Levi’s, inspires people across the world to adopt it.

Don’t just start getting unbuttoned, because it is not skinny Jeans which is worn even by men/women who are out of shape! This Jeans styling will surely tell others about how conscious you are about your figure and especially for your stomach and waist. If you’ve got extra pound on your waist and you get unbutton then definitely this style is going to give you so much of disgrace.

Unbuttoned Jeans style was initially evolved from low waist Jeans style. Only a small upper part of Jeans use to be there around your lower waist part. So just ignore this unbuttoned style if you have even a very cute ‘n’ small tummy. A flat stomach from chest to the lowest part of waist is the best matches for adopting unbutton Jeans style.

A light color shaded t-shirt which is relatively short enough to show off your unbutton style, is the best companion to unbuttoned Jeans style. Canvas dusty shoes will combine greatly with your unbutton style.

If you have worked really hard to get flat stomach then unbutton style is nothing but an award given to you to make your style statement.

In addition to unbutton Jeans, short t-shirt and dusty canvas shoes girls can also combine belly piercing to make their style more seductive. No man can resist himself noticing such girl.

So, do you have it in you! Can you dare to get unbutton?

Fashion things to care about - fashion blunders

2009-06-24T12:51:00.000-07:00

Avoid wearing Colors that don’t Suit body shape and skin color

Such blunders are insisted not to be happened with anybody especially while partying. While attaining any grand parties your clothing style must be enough good to earn other’s attention. One should avoid any kind of experiment with the clothing color in such occasions which may result into blunder. Observe carefully and ask for other’s suggestion before deciding what suits you the best.

Avoid wearing too loose and too tight dresses:

How well fitted your clothes are, suggest how careful you are towards your dressing style. A loose clothing style makes you look non-energetic and mood less. Don’t wear pants which get caught in the shoes, also don’t wear overlong pants or skirts. Don’t try “Do it yourself” trick on your clothing especially while preparing for party or any special occasion. In contradiction to loose fitted dresses one should also be careful about not to wear too tight dresses. Tight looking dresses will make your body shape looks ugly.

Avoid wearing too short clothes

If you are an employee in a reputed organization, do avoid very short skirts or else you will end up showing your panty. The length of your skirts should not be more than 1 or 2 inches above your knees.

Avoid wearing wrinkled clothes:

It is no more cool to go outside with wrinkled clothes until and unless it is a pure denim jeans which needs to be looked bit rough. Don’t exhibit yourself to others like you have come directly from your bed finishing your night sleep with the same clothes you have worn right now. Always wear ironed clothes until and unless it is demanded by certain clothing style.

Final Saying:

Keep your nails clean and trim it evenly
Invest in a good deodorant
Dress according to your age
Avoid clothes that are out of style
Avoid wearing large costume jewelry
Choose accessories that suit your personality, taste and style

Clothing alteration according to slimming needs

2009-06-24T11:52:00.000-07:00

Clothes are usually made by professionals; sometimes ignoring the fact that individual may need certain clothing according to their body shape needs. At such instance you can wake up the artist within you!

You can alter or remodel ready made clothing by yourself according to what look you want with your existing clothing. Here I’m going to explain some of the “do it yourself” tips for alteration with your wardrobe style.

People do choose their clothes with all love by impressing by it at first sight. So, one should be careful while alteration that it should not be result into making ready made clothes looking bad.

Choose the type of thread according to its color, its thickness and it’s overall made.
Don’t just cut the dress with single time thinking. You have other options open as to fold and tuck the dress.

If you are slim you can fold the legs of your jeans which are already been cut till knees. This will convert your denim jeans to a gorgeous looking short. Footwear with no heel suits best with such sexy looking shorts.

Also, an example of successful jeans style with alteration is known as boyfriend jeans is a alteration found by somebody following “do it yourself!”

Before starting on actual alteration, give attention to the type of fabric: is it muslin or knitted of woven. Woven fabric is not forgiving in the same manner as knits.
Do not try short top if your body is not in shape. Overall look will seem like a big and short upper with thinner legs, which is obviously not suggested as clothing style.
Think twice before you act on your clothes. If you’ve got extra pounds on your legs then avoid ripping your jeans up at thighs.

Fashion clothing to look younger

2009-05-30T07:03:00.000-07:00

People make judgment of one’s personality at first only by looking how you look! Its only a person’s dressing which can tell other’s about person’s age, social status, profession, taste and many more other things.

Thus by just changing the clothing we can change all this characteristics. This blog post is dedicated to one, on how he/she can look younger by clothing and other accessory things.

If some day you look into the mirror and found your beauty, youth and glamour gone, then it is the time to think about it now only.

A woman should look perfect by all aspects say beauty, age, clothing and attitude at any age. For this one should not prioritize medical treatment or some other way when you already have a simple way to get all your characteristics back.

Choosing a right clothing style make this for you. It’s not a miracle but yeh you would get appreciation for sure.

Colors of your clothes

Colors of your clothes make so much of sense than you would have ever imagined. A wrong color of your garment might make you look older than you are.

Black is the most elegant color. Models wearing black at the catwalk look exquisite and stylish. You should also be careful about what contrast color you chose to wear with black. Probably you can use some bright thing along with your attitude showing black color.

Black and white combination looks pretty and classy but if it doesn’t look well on you think of pastel tones. They make your skin look fresher and the face younger.

Violet color looks especially beautiful on women of middle age whilst light blue freshens up the appearance.

Garments

Too wide, shapeless garment doesn’t make you look good. If you want to look bit younger than try using some fit things. Probably a skinny jeans work for you. A denim jeans obviously works for you if you try some kind of pattern on it. This can combine both fashion and a style trend for you.

Long baggy skirts and miniskirts are not good for a woman. Opt for skirts about your knee length. It you have nice knees the skirt can be a bit shorter, but if you feel the knees are plump cover them.

However, stay away from bright adornments and embellishments - they look well on teenage girls mostly.

Long baggy skirts and miniskirts are not good for a woman. Opt for skirts about your knee length. It you have nice knees the skirt can be a bit shorter, but if you feel the knees are plump cover them.

Fashion and Style that change your mood!

Dress good and get appreciated has always been a mood shifter for a girl or a woman. Fashion is not always the need but it is in fact a Fun! A good fashion can raise your confidence undoubtedly. When you dress well, everything seems well around you. Here are some of fashion tips to fill your day with style.

Simple jeans of color light blue or some light color always been a good to choose choice for any one. A simple pair of jeans and bit contrast color tee shirt, accessorized with boldest and hugest round shaped earrings will make you look awesome this season.
Buying cheap and impractical things not always down your fashion statement. Go buy something like sequins, feathers, studs according to your mood and integrate them in best feasible way with your regular dressing. I’m sure this would surely make you please. Do more live more!
Try using neon blue eyeshadow as liner instead of regular blackish one. This would definitely make your eyes to notice.
Don’t hesitate in trying something really bright on your nails. Remember, though you haven’t tried such color on your nails this before don’t feel uncomfortable and stop checking your nail constantly. Just feel “They look good”!
Try something really crazy with your lingerie. Even if you’re the only one who’s going to see it, just do it! Some day when you feel down, thinking about cute lingerie can turn your whole mood around.
Follow the dressing of a celebrity whom you are following. One important thing, don’t just adopt your celebrity’s fashion attitude but also follow his/her confidence.
Dress up something you were fantasizing about and take photos of it no matter whether you’re going to keep it in private or going to publishing it. Blast some music which can rock you and dance in front of the mirror. What do you feel now, hmm!
Apply some white or pink flowers in your hair and dress like a Caribbean and feel like you’re roaming at some really beautiful lonely beach. Free yourself and behave in whatever way you might have dreamed about.
Try something really bold as your gym wear. If you feel shy then just wear it when you’re all lonely at home. Exercise at home wearing such dress and you would feel a good mood change for sure.
Experiment with dark red lipstick. Apply make up bit lighter on other portion of your face so that your lipstick get highlighted.
Go follow a basic rule of fashion with confidence that is, Love your body! Which part of your body you love the most? Is it your legs? Rock a miniskirt. Is it arms? Go sleeveless.
Dress up. Not for an occasion, not for a job, not for anyone in particular. Do it because it’s fun and you want to. Life’s too short to blend in!

Dressing sense matching your attitude makes your style statement

2009-05-22T11:03:00.000-07:00

Almost every woman in the world are concious about how she looks. If we want to define fashion of woman within a specific boundary then it is not possible. Fashion word can be used as synonym of woman. But now the point comes is fashion is not just about wearing latest clothing, but many things add to it.

If you are a plump (fat enough to be noticed) woman, just avoid wearing sleeveless cuts. In such case try using some dark color instead of light color. The choice of such colors would help a woman to look bit in shape if she isn't. Some colors like dull dark blue can be put in to this category. Wearing small prints or vertical line prints make you look slimmer.

Light brown and light grey colors look good on you for a woman having medium structure. In case of blouses, try on nets because they can disguise your physical flaws.

If you are a thin women then you can assume that your worry for style and dressing sense almost gone. All color ranges and color shades look good on you. Sleeveless, deep cuts and strapped dresses makes you look gorgeous.

If you are fair, gold with a blend of copper makes you cool. If you are of a medium or wheatish color, mix shades of white, bronzy golden and beige look good. If your skin tone is dark, golden copper shades are the best choice.

Attitude and comfort level are very important in deciding which style and trend works better for you. If you love maintaining a cosmopolitan outlook, but not comfortable with western wear, you can try Indo Western style. A blend of Indo Western style makes you look more charming. If you are a shy woman a boat necked saree with squared necked blouse is the best choice for you. But if you are bold and beautiful you can wear sleeveless, deep-necked blouses and also straps.

Healthy and economic way to keep yourself fit

2009-05-20T12:55:00.000-07:00

Cook at home
The most important and an effective formula to keep yourself healthy is nothing special or expensive one but just Cook at Home. By Cooking at home you are making sure that you are going to eat a food which is healthiest and nutritions filled. A hygienic food with quality assured by you only not only keep you healthy but also saves your pounds and dollars.

Shop on weekends
Another point in regard to health is to store fresh vegetables and other material to cook for whole week. Means, it is better you shop on weekends by storing raw material for your cooking for whole week. If you would go and buy food from out side on every individual day then going for shopping in such manner may cause extravagance.

Shop seasonally
It is suggested to shop vegetables and fruits subject to the availability in specific seasons only. Buying some fruits and fruit juice with preservative doesn't give the benefit as you expected from it if bought out of season. For instance you should buy apple during winter season preferably as apples are available naturally and nutrition filled in this season only. In such case you would pay less to buy apple and would get fresh and natural apple.

Focus on leafy greens
Leafy greens like kale, chard, collards, spinach and broccoli are some of the most nutritious, least expensive things you can buy. Frequently, half a bunch of kale with some beans, grains and herbs is my entire dinner and costs around $1.50. It also takes less than 15 minutes to prepare.

Eat less meat
Meat is always the most expensive thing on the menu. I do not advocate a vegetarian diet, but limiting meat to once or twice a week is an easy way to cut back on both calories and keep life economical financially. If you are worried about protein (you shouldn’t be), you can eat beans, eggs and fish instead.

Attitude & feel comfort - core thing for style

2009-05-12T12:07:00.000-07:00

Only clothing style makes one stylish is an absolutely incomplete sentence. A good attitude which shows other that, yeh, you feel so comfortable with whichever thing you are wearing is called a real style statement.

A costly wardrobe with other fashion accessories from an international brand looks no more to earn others attention if done with discomfort in wearing it. Feeling good with whichever clothing you are having makes much more sense than an uncomfortable fashion clothing. When you feels comfortable with your clothing, it shows on your overall personality, which is actually attitude is all about. Attitude is how confident you looks, how confident you walk and how confident you look while talking to others. If a clothing style makes you feel uncomfortable in any of the activity then you should shift to other fashion trend rather being updated with your clothing style all the time.

A simple light blue comfort fit jeans and a white shirt can even makes you look awesome when wore with a confident attitude than a adopted style inspired by a celebrity.

So what makes sense is not only the clothing style, but your body structure (Slim or Overweight), your confidence, your attitude and lastly your feel good approach.

Have you seen mirror today?

2009-04-30T09:26:00.000-07:00

You must be wondering after reading the title of the post, but yes that is what I mean to say in this post. If you really want to look good with your what so ever clothing style and even more want to get satisfied with the way your body looks to you then you must follow what I am going to tell further in this post.

Everybody look in the mirror when he/she want to see how they are looking overall with their clothing, body structure, make up and other accessories (subjected to gender). When you don't find a person of whom you have been dreaming in the mirror, you feel bit disappointed but after a little time you sacrifice with how you look.

If you don't want to sacrifice with your overall look then take a resolution to stand in front of mirror for at least 10 minutes without missing a day without any reason. Just let yourself feel unsatisfied with whatever the thing you are lacking of. Believe me it works. The time you spent in front of mirror will let you get inspired to start working for yourself looking more good.

Suppose you have got few extra pounds and still you have not been emphasizing on this slow and steadily progressing thing. Now if you regularly look yourself in mirror for 10 minutes you will surely notice this thing that your shape is not so attractive as before.

A mirror can do so many things if you just give it few minutes of your day. A mirror can inspire you to lose your weight and look attractive and “in shape” again. A mirror can also make you aware of the thing that you are not following the current style and fashion trend when you find your clothing style out of fashion.

It is better to make a mirror your friend, which tell you the fact whenever you stand with it. You won't feel good if you are told that you are old fashioned or you don't look in shape.

A clear and very helpful conclusion of this post is you've already got your best friend with you at your home, the only needed thing is to make a habit to spend time with it and shortly you'll find that it is actually beneficial to you only.

Boyfriend Jeans Bikini Jeans - Jeans and Fashion Trends

Another so seductive thing these days is Bikini jeans. Yeh, you read it rightly.

Before you adopt any of these fashion you should make sure that your body shape and figure should suit it. Before get to know more about these fashion trends, please consider following few things:

If your body is pear shaped then ignore wearing Bikini jeans. Pear shaped body is recognized by wider lower body part. Bikini jeans show off half of your buttocks. So if you would still prefer to go for Bikini jeans then it would lead to making your body structure things get worst.

If you had great time in canteen of your college with burger and cold drinks then you must have got rewarded with lots of extra pounds. In such case Boyfriend jeans may be proven an underestimating thing for you. As you know Boyfriend jeans would make you look bit fatty shaped, trying this jeans on big or overweight body will cause a big mis-matched.

What’s a boyfriend jean? In a nutshell, it’s either literally a pair of guy’s jeans, or a pair of jeans that looks and fits like it was borrowed from a guy - loose fit, low rise, cuffed hems. Of course, this look doesn’t exclude single ladies. There are plenty of budget-friendly boyfriend jeans available for purchase in stores everywhere - no boys required.

Want to know more about this hot trend? Learn all about the boyfriend jean, the best ways to wear it, and where to buy it with the tips below.

Boyfriend Jeans - what they are and how to wear them:

Now obviously, depending on your size and your boyfriend’s size, you don’t have to literally steal a pair of jeans from your guy to rock this trend. Instead, you can buy this style of jeans in a store, or pick up a pair of smaller guy’s jeans at a vintage shop. To save money, I recommend buying these vintage or stealing from a guy, because this is such a trendy item that will be out of style fast. No point buying new “boyfriend jeans” if you ask me!

How to Wear Boyfriend Jeans:

Here are some tips on the best ways to wear the boyfriend jean for that effortlessly chic look.

Roll up the cuffs. If your jeans are short enough, you won’t need to do this, but if they’re super long, you’ll need to cuff the bottoms. Roll them above your ankles if you’re wearing heels, or just below if you’re wearing flat sandals. Having your jeans drag along the ground is never a good look.

With ballet flats, sandals, or heels. These jeans are made to show off your ankles and feet, so don’t wear boyfriend jeans with boots or sneakers. Instead, wear ‘em with a pair of gladiator sandals, flip flops, high heels, or ballet flats to add cute details.

Keep the rest of your look relaxed and casual. Boyfriend jeans look best with a plain tee or tank and minimal accessories. It’s a look that’s very low maintenance and informal, so don’t try too hard with your top and accessories.

With a leather belt. Since boyfriend jeans are usually really big and baggy, you’ll probably need a belt to keep them up. Even if you don’t, a belt makes a great addition to the outfit. Bonus points if you wear a plain leather belt that looks like it could have been borrowed from a boy too.

Shoes for a slimmer look

2009-04-21T10:31:00.000-07:00

Always choose darker color as your shoes color, which leads other people's attention more towards downward instead of allow them keep focusing on your upper part with noticing few extra pounds.

Pointed toe shoes make you look slim. Whether they are flats or heels, they allow the length of your pant to flow into a point. Rounded toe shoes cut off the line and make your legs look stumpy.

Heel and High Heel shoes will Make Your Legs Appear Thinner

The heels don't have to be terribly high, but there's no doubt that if you want to appear slimmer, a bit of a heel will help dramatically.

Opened-Toed Shoes

Exercise properly

EXERCISING is good for the body because it helps to burn off excess fat, increase the rate of metabolism and relax the mind. However, you must do it regularly. A 30-minute session two or three times a week will do.

Determination and perseverance

THE most common reason why slimming efforts fail is the lack of determination and discipline to keep going. With proper eating and exercising habits, everybody can have a healthy and well-proportioned body, as long as you keep at it.

Cigars are never stylish in mixed company.
If you hang your jacket on a chair and then sit on the chair and lean back, your jacket will look as if you had hung it on a chair and then sat on the chair and leaned back.

Celebrity slimming and diet secrets

2009-03-28T09:31:00.000-07:00

Till posts we get to know about some of the really important slimming and style tips which you might not be knowing. In the current post I am going to reveal some of the very small but very useful secrets about celebrity in keeping themselves slim.

It is almost impossible for us to spend such big amount of time behind slimming and diet as celebrities do, but even though if anybody try following these would surely be beneficial as they have already been implemented by them.

We can't all afford personal trainers or chefs, but there are still plenty of tips we can pick up from celebs. Check out some of their secrets for keeping slim and sexy.

Cameron Diaz's cock-a-doodle-doo

Cameron Diaz is lucky to have a fast metabolism and a passion for high-energy sports like surfing and skiing. But she still has to watch what she eats, especially now she's in her thirties.

The lanky actress likes to start her day with protein, in the form of chicken. It may sound strange to those of us who get going with cereal or toast, but chicken — skinless and cooked in the right way — is low in fat and high in protein.

Also, eating a good breakfast can rev up your metabolism for the whole day and help you avoid those mid-morning snack attacks.

Like the sound of it? Here's a chicken treat you can prepare the night before ...

Chicken in a parcel
65-100g lean chicken breast
Squeeze lemon juice
Fresh herbs, chopped
1 tablespoon capers
Green beans

Wrap chicken, juice, herbs and capers in a foil parcel and bake for 20 minutes at 190C. Serve with beans.

Halle Berry's golden rules

Diabetic Halle Berry avoids refined sugar, preferring to eat natural sugars found in fruits and vegies. She has a few other golden rules which help her look amazing and keep healthy.

The former Bond girl is very strict about cutting out all fried foods. She also prefers to eat at home when she can, to control portion size and fat content.

Finally, Halle never eats after 7pm. This is a fab diet tip, as there's nothing worse than going to bed on a full stomach. Eat earlier and you’ll get a chance to burn off your meal before getting your beauty sleep.

Claudia Schiffer's fruit fix

Model mum Claudia Schiffer begins her day with lots of fruit. She also likes to eat her main meal at lunchtime, eating a light dinner with plenty of steamed vegies.

Here are some ideas for tasty fruit treats. Add low-fat yoghurt or ice cream for a calcium boost if you like.

Toasted pineapple

Grill a few slices of fresh pineapple. The natural sugars will caramelise, and you'll be left with a sweet sensation. Eat it on its own, or flavour with a few drops of fresh orange or lemon juice, or a sprinkling of fresh chopped mint or basil.

Baked banana

As the weather cools down, it's nice to fill yourself up with a warming treat. Simply place a pierced banana on a baking tray and pop it in an oven preheated to 180C. Bake for 15 minutes or until skin goes black. Then simply cut along the banana, remove the skin and serve with some low-fat ice cream.

Melon surprise
½ melon of any variety
50g raspberries
50g seedless grapes
Juice of ½ an orange

Remove the seeds from the centre of the melon (then slice if desired), add raspberries and grapes and sprinkle with the orange juice. Serve.

Celebrity workout tips

Claudia Schiffer exercises her upper arms by going clay pigeon-shooting.
Robbie Williams keeps trim and toned with regular kickboxing sessions and Sunday morning soccer matches.
Sandra Bullock is an avid rock climber. It's a great sport for toning and strengthening the whole body.
Cameron Diaz keeps fit with martial art Wing Chun. It strengthens the arms, waist and shoulders, and is particularly good for toning hips and abs.
David Beckham keeps his bod hot by ditching three big meals a day for six snacks.
Naomi Campbell boxes to relieve tension and tone up.
Catherine Zeta-Jones keeps fit by playing golf.
Jennifer Aniston runs in water for 15 minutes to get a great low-impact workout.
Sarah Jessica Parker walks, rollerblades and cycles around New York.
Dannii Minogue always takes the stairs over a lift.

Celebrity eating out tips

The rich and famous seem to spend all their time eating out at fancy restaurants, and yet they always manage to look great. What are their secrets?

Don't overdo the bread. Try not to fill up on bread, olive oil and butter before your meal arrives. You could even ask them to take it away from the table.
Easy on the alcohol. Alcohol is a diet saboteur. Try to limit your intake by drinking wine spritzers, or just sit on a glass or two for the night.
Don't go to a restaurant absolutely starving or you'll end up having a blow-out. Instead, try eating a snack before you go out — like half a tub of yoghurt or some almonds.

Slimming with healthy eating without cooking

2009-03-27T12:31:00.000-07:00

A peanut butter sandwich on whole wheat bread with a glass of 1 percent milk and an apple.
A healthy frozen entree with a salad and a glass of 1 percent milk.
The smallest fast-food burger (with mustard and ketchup, not mayo) and a no-cal beverage. Then at home, have an apple or baby carrots.

Scramble eggs in a nonstick skillet. Pop some asparagus in the microwave, and add whole wheat toast. If your cholesterol levels are normal, you can have seven eggs a week!
Prebagged salad topped with canned tuna, grape tomatoes, shredded reduced-fat cheese, and low-cal Italian dressing.
A bag of frozen vegetables heated in the microwave, topped with 2 tablespoons of Parmesan cheese and 2 tablespoons of chopped nuts.
Precooked chicken strips and microwaved frozen broccoli topped with Parmesan cheese.
Heat up a can of good soup.
Keep lean sandwich fixings on hand: whole wheat bread, sliced turkey, reduced-fat cheese, tomatoes, and mustard with horseradish.
Precut fruit for a salad and add yogurt.
Cereal, fruit, and fat-free milk makes a good meal anytime.
Try a veggie sandwich from Subway.

Looking Pounds Lighter By Dressing Slimmer

2009-03-19T11:02:00.000-07:00

Until and unless you finally loose your gained extra pound you get to meet many friends in party and during hanging out. You don’t want to look careless towards your unwanted curves due to your extra pounds. So can what clothes we wear and how we wear them hide those few extra pounds gained - without wearing a tent dress that is? I think following a few style tips can definitely disguise those unwanted curves and create a great summer look.

Color and Styles

We've all heard it - darker colours are slimming - but they can be mixed and matched with the latest floral patterns, for instance a dark skirt or pants teamed with a patterned top will slim down the hips and bum.
Black clothes are known for slimming one down. Many individuals who want that slimmer appearance with some great fashion style go to black clothing. You don't have to wear all black like black slacks, black top, black underwear and black shoes to get that slimming appearance. Whatever part of your body needs that slimming effect is where you should wear the black clothing. As an example, if your thighs are too big, then you may want to wear black khakis or jeans. If you are top heavy, then think about wearing a black shirt.
If the heat is on, don't go for fabrics which cling too much - nothing looks less flattering than a tight lycra top on a hot day - especially when the tummy might not be as toned as it could be.
Don't wear flared or pleated skirts which add unwanted bulk to certain rear areas.
Stay away from high waisted skirts or trousers which pull you in around the middle accentuating your tummy - go for styles which skirt the hips such as princess line dresses or low waisted jeans, allowing your waistline to flow naturally.
Wearing black footless tights as in the picture with a short dress hides wobbly thighs and slims down knees.

What's The Best Underwear To Hide Those Curves?

Fantastically there is the Spanx Bodyshaper - this amazing underwear item for women (which has been seen being worn by such icons of style as SJP and Beyonce) keeps unwanted curves in check. It's a high-waisted bodyshaper which smoothes over the tummy, hips and thighs (sigh..).
Have you ever looked into fitted blazers? With all of the cold winter months that are approaching us, the blazers can be found in nearly all department stores. The key to finding a great blazer that fits in with your fashion style and at the same time will be slimming you down would be for you to look for one that is slightly fitted. You should get a blazer that comes to a stop right at your waist, or just a little below. The current fashion style is un buttoned blazer, so you can keep it open. The wonderful feature about a blazer is not only the fact that it will be slimming you down, but you can wear it to those casual affairs.

Drawing Attention to Your Best Features

If you have fantastic legs or elegant arms make sure you show them off with shorter skirts or sleeveless tops - no one will notice any little unwanted bumps or curves in other places.
Accessorise your outfit - a gorgeous necklace, scarf or pashmina over a black outfit looks very slimming, elegant and stylish.

Tips for Flat stomach, Slimming for belly piercing and style

2009-03-16T14:01:00.000-07:00

An extremely seductive and attractive style trend in teenager girls are now days is piercing. Girls use to go for different stone and rings on her tongue, between nose holes, eye brows and even more on navel or on belly hole.

To get every benefit out of a stylish and seductive belly piercing one need to have a flat belly (flat stomach) first.

Here I am going to explain some of the tips and ways by which one can achieve flat stomach, which would be surely helpful in establishing your own style statement.

A flat stomach has both a physical and psychological effect on you. A flat stomach makes you look extremely good and can have clothes fitting you like they were made just for you.

Having a flat stomach can also make you feel supremely confident of yourself… enough to strut around like a proud peacock along the sandy shores of a beach or wear a cut off shirt or even have a naval piercing done. A flat stomach is definitely worth having especially when you consider the fact that it is what is partly used to define beauty.

You can have a flat stomach by doing any of the following:

Change in diet: What you eat, you become. You should be wary about the type of food you eat. If your diet so far has consisted of nothing but junk, you will be doing your stomach no good even when you combine it with exercise.

For you to witness any change in your stomach size, you should eat more of vegetables, fruits and nuts. These will help fight the stomach bulge.

Be consistent: Having a workout schedule isn’t enough to get rid of your belly fat. You should be faithful in adhering to it if you want to see any visible changes. Don’t stop exercising once you get a flat stomach because it will only fatten up again once you stop exercising.

Workout completely: Don’t just pay attention to your stomach alone. A leaner look will be more achievable if you work out your entire body. Focusing on exercising your stomach alone will not give you the results you are hoping for.

Resist the drinks: Steer clear from sweet drinks such as soda, soft drinks or other drinks like wine or beer. All these drinks ultimately contribute to a fat laden stomach.

Tips to keep your self healthy and slim and so that Stylish

2009-03-06T11:52:00.000-08:00

1. Make sure that you exercise

Physical exercise combined with proper nutrition is the main key to longevity. It is also known that physical exercise slows the aging of tissues. However, physical exercise can also ensure better quality of life.

The gym, and anaerobic exercises are for those who want to build muscles. Instead, the mild exercises such as walking or jogging (and in general aerobic exercises), are ideal to keep you in shape and lay the foundations for a better and long life.

2. Follow a balanced diet and keep your body weight low

There is the perception that the lower the weight and the less you eat, the more you will live. In reality this perception is truth .A balanced daily diet with fruits, vegetables, wine and at least twice a week fish, and in combination with other factors can ensure longevity. Established research showed that consumption of fish four times a week for people who experienced a cardiac event, can significantly reduce the risk of a second one.
3. Drink more wine

The habit of many people to accompany their meal with a glass of red wine, according to scientists, is beneficial because the substance resveratroli located in wine seems to have «miracle» properties.

Research conducted several years ago by Harvard University, in collaboration with the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, showed that this substance activates anti-aging and rejuvenates the cells.

American researchers also found that the resveratroli significantly increases the lifespan of yeast and given that yeast and humans share some common genes, scientists believe they may extend human life as well. Thus, a glass of wine a day for women and up to two glasses for men seems to keep the doctor away.

4. Stop smoking

It is believed that those who stop smoking gain 10 more years of life. The most essential thing is that former smokers gain in quality of life, as chronic bronchitis, one of the biggest problems caused by smoking is eliminated. Also an immediate improvement from non-smoking is better breath.

5. Keep educating your self

A university degree, except that can open doors in the labor market is also a factor, according to scientific research, that helps longevity. As revealed from a Harvard University study, women with higher education can live up to five years more than those who completed only compulsory education. The reason? Adopting healthier habits, better information and monitoring of medical developments.

6. Keep an active sex life

Sex «gives» years. Several neurologist-psychiatrists believe that sexual life should not stop after the age of 60. Studies show that people over 65 years who have sex twice a week, have a better health because during the sexual act brain releases hormones that protect the biological axis.

Having an active sex life may be the solution to cancer (this is not yet confirmed), but for sure it can help hypertension and headache relief. The endorphins hormones released during sexual act, act as painkillers for migraines for those who have sex 3 times a week.

7. Get married!

Although many men are slow in climbing the steps of the church, surveys show that marriage does not harm but help to extend the life expectancy. A study carried out by researchers at the University of Chicago shows that married men are more likely to live many more years, because within marriage they adopt healthy habits. In contrast, married women are not so favored because in the marriage context they exhibit more stress and anxiety.

8. Do not eat red meat

People living in the Mediterranean region have an advantage in terms of longevity compared to other people thanks to the famous Mediterranean diet. Recent research carried out by Harvard University proved that the daily consumption of olive oil, fruits and vegetables could protect against cancer. People who follow such a diet have 12% less chances getting the disease. In addition, the more often you consume legumes, instead of red meat, the more likely is to enjoy a more quality and longer life. The consumption of red meat should be limited to once a week.

9. Eat more black chocolate

The beneficial properties of black chocolate are known for almost 2,000 years. Recent surveys reinforce old perceptions that the balanced consumption of black chocolate is good for the human body. As shown by research of the past two years, black chocolate is a «drug» for the pressure and «shield» for the heart.

Previous research by the John Chopkins Medical School had shown that consumption of small quantities of black chocolate a day protects as equally effective as aspirin the obstruction of the arteries. Another study based on a graduate of Harvard University showed that those who consumed up to three plates of black chocolate a month had 36% less chances of premature death.

10. Think positive

The optimism and love for life are the common characteristics of people around the world who live a lot of years. A recent survey revealed that optimists live longer and have up to 55% lower risk of dying prematurely. The explanation given was that the pessimists are prone to develop bad habits, which can cause premature death. Alcohol, smoking and obesity are the first in the list of bad habits. Those who want to live more years should adopt an optimistic way of life and avoid the unhealthy traps.

Tips for looking slimmer

2009-02-25T12:31:00.000-08:00

Wide Hips

Look for jackets that have wide collars which will match and not exaggerate a wider bottom half.

Jackets that are shaped to gently curve or flare out towards the bottom disguise larger hips.

Look for skirts that have an A-line cut or those which flare out from a fitted panel at the top rather than skirts which are gathered from the waistband.

Wider necklines also have the same effect as wide collars, eg boat necklines, as they draw the eye up and away from the hips.

Extra Pounds Around The Waistline

Stay away from tops and jackets which end around the waistline - a bit unflattering if you have a bigger tummy.

Look for hip length slinky tops which glide over your tummy. Smocks can be great, as long as they are not too full of gathered fabric around the front.

Tunics or shift style dresses are great with slimline jeans or leggings and boots.

Look for wrap-over tops which tie around the middle creating a waistline. Jackets with faux half-belts attached at the back also create a waistline effect.

The Larger Bust

Wearing a hoodie or cardigan over a vest top or t-shirt creates a vertical line which disguises a larger chest.

Scoop neck tops break up larger chest areas, especially if worn with a funky scarf or large piece of jewelery. Look for scoop neck tops which are not too clingy though.

Darker color tops are also the key and long v-necklines can look very glamorous and disguise a larger chest.

Tips on how to Get Slimmer Thighs

2009-02-17T11:55:00.000-08:00

If there is one problem that women complain most about it’s their thighs. No matter what you try to do, it seems like there is no way to make your thighs appear slimmer. Sure exercise helps, but if you’re one those lazy people (like moi), that just can’t stick to an exercise routine, you’re plain out of luck!

So what can you do to make your thighs appear slimmer?

Well there are numerous products on the market that claim to slim your thighs, get rid of cellulite, etc. But we all know that dishing out big bucks for that can be hard because you don’t know if they really work.

And speaking from experience, I haven’t had much luck with those creams and serums. They minimize the appearance of cellulite or “trapped body fat”, as I like to call it, but it’s such a tiny difference that you may not even notice it.

So here’s a trick that I saw on the Tyra Banks Show and I absolutely love it. It’s no permanent solution, but it does the trick during those harsh summer months of self-criticism.

So here’s what you do:

Apply a good self tanner (please invest, don’t be cheap!) to your legs, just like your regularly would. Of course, don’t forget to exfoliate before applying so the tanner goes on smoothly without a hitch.

Wait until the tanner dries and apply a second coat. This time, apply it only to your inner and outer thighs, ignoring the front and back. This is the trick here: it will make your thighs appear slimmer because it will give that illusion. Think about it, try it, and you’ll see a huge difference.

If you do this on a regular basis, you’ll see what a big change your thighs will go through. The cellulite will barely be visible, and your thighs will look just

Get another college girls opinion - Find another college girl that dresses nice (friend, friends girlfriend, whatever) and ask her what she thinks of the outfit you plan on wearing. (Most Important)

When going out, dress up - At least make it look like you made an effort to look nice. This means a lot to girls because it shows you actually put effort into looking good for them.

your colors - Clashing is when two similar colors do not match. Checking with another college girl first will help you with this. Make sure your belt matches your shoes, and DO NOT wear white socks with black or brown shoes.

Wear Real Ties - Never wear a clip on tie, if you don't know how to tie a tie, learn! Its good to know, and a clip-on will make you loose points with a female.

The smell sense is very strong, especially in females. If you leave a shirt at a college girls house or dorm and she likes you, chances are she will smell it just to think about you. Girls sense of smell is very strong so it is very important you use deodorant and cologne appropriately.

Deodorant is a MUST! It does not matter how much you think you do not smell, you must wear deodorant. If deodorant does not work, see your doctor and get a prescription.

Slimming down in style

2009-01-21T03:47:00.000-08:00

Bellies are every fashion-conscious man's nightmare. Nothing could possibly be worse than having a big bulge that protrudes from the front of your shirt or wearing pants that refuse to close over a waist that is two inches too big. If you were to consult the Internet for a solution to your problem, you'd be likely to come across the same answer every where: exercise to get your clothes to fit right.

Don't get the wrong idea; exercise is the best and healthiest way to solve your overweight issues but if you just want to address the issue of looking good irrespective of size, that's a different discussion altogether. In fact, for the latter issue, you can solve it with no more muscle exertion than what's needed to open your closet.

Your Wardrobe Weigh-In

You definitely wouldn't be the first guy to try and hide the bulge with clothes that are a couple of sizes too big. Although wearing an extra large tee over a medium body might conceal the cellulite per se, it does nothing to flatter your figure. Quite the contrary, it makes you look even worse by making your whole body look completely out of proportion.

On the other side of the spectrum, there are also those guys who get clothes that are too small, saying that doing so will psyche them into slimming down. The idea has potential but it rarely translates into actual loss. And while you are still in the process of slimming down, you will be stuck with all those clothes that emphasize your beer belly. Hardly flattering, don't you think?

Scientists have recently found out that too-tight belts and collars - just some of the measures that men often resort to - could even have adverse effects on your posture and blood flow. Wearing clothes that are too tight (and even some of those that are too loose) isn't just ineffective. You might just be harming your health - and your appearance.

Keep It Simple

Stocking up on simple clothing such as solid-colored shirts, ringer tees and plain henleys is a smart decision. Those pieces aren't called 'basics' for nothing. Pieces like those are the foundations of every fashionable guy's wardrobe and they might just be the saving grace for your own.

Why restrict yourself to basics? First of all, they are your safest clothing choice. Printed or patterned clothes usually end up making you tacky, fat or even worse; both. Plain pieces on the other hand, give the illusion that your body is a flat surface because the uniform color affects the viewer's depth perception. It is this illusion that creates the desired effect of making you look far slimmer than you may actually be.

Simplicity also means wearing just what is necessary. Refrain from wearing sweaters or jackets if they are not absolutely necessary for completing your outfit or keeping you warm in the cold. Additional pieces on your body translate into additional bulk visually and that's precisely what you want to avoid. If you simply must wear additional layers such as coats or jackets, get them in solid colors and traditional cuts. Navy blue and black are great choices for anyone who wants to appear a couple of sizes slimmer.

Play with Patterns

Illusions play a big part in making you look slimmer and thinner than you are. Patterns can help create that illusion by fooling the viewer's eye into looking at your body in a certain way.

Take for example, a vertically striped shirt. It's a staple in any guy's closet and for good reason. The vertical stripes force the viewer's eye to perceive your body lengthwise, giving the impression that you are taller and thinner. You can try with a simple pattern in classic colors like navy and white pinstripes. Once you've gotten comfortable with those, you can start trying out different combinations.

Looking thinner need not be an expensive or time -consuming effort. All you'd need to do is pick the right clothes to flatter your bod and then wear your outfit with the confidence that befits any great-looking guy.

For slimming by medication you can go for reductil sibutramine diet pills.

Slimming and diet tips for your healthy life....

2009-01-15T04:16:00.000-08:00

1. How Should Body Slimming Be Done Properly?

Even though we all know what slim means, different programs have different approaches as to how it should be accomplished. The main concept is to have a healthy body and a healthy weight.

But there are others who get too obsessed with slimming, and think that it is about losing as much weight as possible. To properly slim down, you must increase your body’s energy consumption to balance or be more than the amount you consume (through foods that you eat).

2. Why Is Body Slimming So Hard?

With so many types of programs, diets, exercises , and even surgery claiming that they can help you achieve your weight loss goals, it can be hard to decide what to do with all the conflicting information. Losing fats is definitely one of the hardest things to do, and which diet or program you choose should depend on your lifestyle and the realistic results you expect.

3. Increasing Your Body Metabolism Through Exercise

Becoming more active in your daily life is a great way to start slimming down. Exercises that require a lot of energy use up more calories in your body, thus preventing them from being stored up as fat stores.

To start, you should consider the sports or physical activities that you like, and it should fit your schedule. This allows you to enjoy what you are doing, and still enjoy the body slimming benefits you want.

However, if there are not really any sports that you enjoy, you will have to use other ways to increase your metabolism. The best way to do so is through eating foods that boost metabolism.

4. Change Your Diet And Eating Habits

This is probably the most important step you have to take if you want a slim body, because your body is made up of what you put in your mouth. Try to eat smaller amounts, but more frequently every day. When your body digest foods, it is using up energy. By eating more meals every day, you can keep your metabolism high throughout the day.

If what you are looking for is fast weight loss , you may want to learn about the calorie shifting diet , which has helped me and millions of other people lose a lot of fat and keep it off for good. This diet involves eating specific types of foods at specific times of the day, and when done so, triggers fat burning hormones to be produced by your brain.

Tips to keep yourself slim while partying!

2008-12-22T22:46:00.000-08:00

As you know over weight is really a speed breaker in your make over. Not only that overweight makes your looks bad, but it can cause health disorders that can lead to death. Overweight is as a result of the accumulation of excess fat in your body. This is mainly the problem with our diet and lifestyle.

At some situations people feel compelled to eat, and the best example of such a moment is while partying. Parties are places where you will be compelled, if not tempted to eat a lot. But should you be afraid of partying? You tied your self very disciplined with your diet plan all this week but abruptly on your weekend you encounter a party where you are forced by friends for a drink and some oily food! So at the result all your efforts for dieting gone unworthy.

“Where there is a will there is a way”, all you need is the will, and to stick to it I have certain small partying tips for you.

Break the rule of punctuality

Arrive late for party. Because once the dinner starts, after one round at the buffet, everyone’s interest will be in mingling with others. So if you reach there late you can mingle with them instead of piling your plate with dishes.

Also don’t forget that people will look at you accusingly if you eat lot after coming late and that thought will be enough to stop you from consuming extra carbs.

Think for escaping sometimes

The second thing is of course what if you are compelled by a friend to taste each dish. Well if it’s only once, fate what else. But if he or she continues to do so in all parties, it is time for you to be careful. It is always better to “Escape” from such people.

Another tip is to be choosy while you eat. Don’t try to try out every dish. Leave the usual ones and it is time to check the new ones.

Eat slowly, may be like a camel!

Eat slowly. Take a lot of time for chewing the food. It is good for digestion and also controlling the amount of food you take. If you are eating slowly, you will know when you are full because it takes some time for the stomach to notify the brain that it is full. This way you can save the carbs you were about to eat.

Ask for friend’s support

And the easiest way is to ask your friends to control you from eating a lot. If he or she thinks that you ate more, then allow then to remove those dishes from your plate. This is the best way I can ever suggest.

So start rocking the party... Have a bang this Christmas!

Culture, eating styles, and obesity in the nutrition transition

2008-12-19T05:41:00.000-08:00

This study compared motivation for eating between individuals from two different cultures that have moved through the nutrition transition at different rates and to different degrees. The analysis was based on a convenience sample of 1,218 participants aged 18 years and older attending colleges in the US and Japan.

The Motivation for Eating Scale (MFES) was used to evaluate three different styles of eating (physical, emotional, or environmental) by nation and gender. For women, significant differences were seen for all three subscales. Women in the US were more likely to initiate eating for emotional reasons, while women in Japan were more likely to eat for physical or environmental reasons. Trends were in similar directions for men, but did not achieve statistical significance.

Both women and men in the US were more likely than the Japanese respondents to eat in response to watching TV or movies. These results suggest that there are national differences in the cultural environment that may impact individual motivations for eating. As such, various cultural perceptions of food and culturally influenced eating styles should be considered in attempts to more fully understand the mechanics of the nutrition transition as it operates within a given country.

By extension, public health policies and health promotion initiatives that are designed to limit the negative impacts of the nutrition transition may benefit from a greater understanding of the larger role that cultural differences in eating styles may play in the development of overweight and obesity.

Style and Fashion Tips ( For Slim gals 'n' guys only )

2008-12-08T04:33:00.000-08:00

Get a little funky! A new top under your blazer or a skirt with a wild animal print will put a pow of pizazz in your wardrobe and get you out of the day-to-day doldrums. Try a specialty store like alight.com for stylish clothing in a wide range of sizes.

Mom was right (Isn't she always?!): horizontal stripes really do make you look heavier because they cause the visual illusion of added width. Vertical stripes have the opposite effect, elongating your figure. If you do choose something with horizontal stripes, the skinnier the line, the better (think pinstripes).

Sure, black is the old stand-by, but it's not the only slenderizing color; others include: dark brown, navy, burgundy and deep violet.

Go for a two-piece look - blazers and vests can hide many figure flaws. Important details: When choosing a vest, select one that is longer; if browsing for a blazer pick out one that is fitted, not boxy.

While it's great to dress for comfort when you can, be careful not to always choose baggy articles of clothing for your wardrobe staples. The added fabric of loose-fitting clothing only adds bulk to your shape, causing you to look chunkier.

Find your perfect haircut. By sporting the 'do that's right for you, you will draw attention upwards, towards your face, and away from your problem areas. Ask a stylist to show you pictures of styles that will flatter your facial shape and hair texture, or, go to a Web site like E-Makeover, which allows you to virtually try on any number of different styles.

Monochrome outfits help your body frame look longer and therefore, leaner. For example, wear off-black or black hose with an outfit comprised of dark neutrals rather than nude or taupe.

Perfect your posture. Good posture looks great on any size, but did you know you actually look slimmer when you stand up straight? Don't slouch when standing or sitting and you'll look pounds lighter.

Try out a foundation garment. Years ago, we could barely breathe in them, but today's secretly slimming undies are much more comfortable and flexible. Visit a store like Lane Bryant for a selection of foundation garments in a wide range of sizes.

Cropped tops and waist-length jackets or sweaters are a definite no-go. They draw attention straight to many women's top trouble spots: the waist and the hips.

If you are not slim yet and though dreaming yourself as trend setter then you got lose your weight now. You can't ignore the fact that you always feel underestimated while looking your self struggling with overweight.

More over this, for slimming and dieting you can go for any safe and healthy way to lose weight by weight loss medication along with regular exercise.

Do Slimming really needed for Style?

2008-12-04T04:45:00.000-08:00

Being stylish from within may not be enough sometimes. When you are surrounded by many people and you want attention from other then you got to be attractive enough physically.

Don’t worry if you are fat then also it is so easy to earn other’s attention, but do you think it is the right way to make some body see your self laughing!

Being slim is the first step for your good social life. You go for DJ nights but finding yourself unable to dance longer just because of your excess weight, which acts like a speed breaker to your fun filled social life.

You don’t do exercise due to your laziness for spending time on it. But what would be your feeling when some of your friend will address you by fatty or teddy in front of your loved one? It will surely be much more embracing than we could imagine. It hurt.

It is also possible that this fattiness can make your marriage life bit underestimating.

So I can’t be sexy and stylish as I am overweight?

A simple answer to this for Girl would be, what about a masculine dude instead of a biggy stomach man.

For boys the answer would be what comes to your mind when thinking about a girl with figure 36-24-36?

Hope you both genders have got your answers.

Slim girl with wearing short skirt and some high hill shoe will definitely look far better than an (00) shaped girl, isn’t it.

Your other style statement comes second, whether it is your scarp or your funky hairstyle. But if you are not in shape then this all things will be under credited for sure.

A boy with flat stomach and well shaped abs definitely deserves everybody’s attention. Some may also imagine him as playing any role in your fantasy; of course this is the fact.

While in contrast think a situation where you have mountain over your stomach and you are about to go for some swimming and outing at river with all you friends including you liked one. Would you feel it worth to be uncovering your self in front of her so easily as your stomach is like a funny thing which haven’t been looked after for a long time?
