look at the pic
* Lower the temperature in your house 10 degrees or take a icy cold shower/bath. It cause your body burns calories warming
you back up
* If sitting at school, college etc. constantly tap your feet/fingers. Fidgeting throughout day is proven to burn up to
800 calories per day
* Fast Food Frenzy: Everywhere you look today, it seems a new fast food restaurant is popping up. If your on a diet, do
your best to simply avoid these places
* Take cold showers because your body has to burn calories trying to heat you back up. While your at it, set the air conditioner
for 10-20 degrees below normal
* Pick one food for the day, like an apple. Cut it into 4 quarters. Eat one part for breakfast, one for lunch, one for
dinner, and you've got one left over for a snack
* Like Britney Spears's abs? Do 500 crunches a day. But don't do this if your stomach has a lot of fat on it because crunches
build muscle over fat, they don't actually burn fat
* If you're in college, plan your schedule so that it spreads throughout the day that way you won't have long gaps of
time where you can pig out in your dorm this way no freshman 15
* Keep your metabolism going by confusing your body. Ex.: Eat 800 calories one day, 200 calories the next, 1000 the next,
400, 900, 2000, 100, etc., so your body doesn't go into starvation mode
* Eat using chopsticks. This way eating is slower and more controlled. Another thing you can do is eat with the opposite
hand you normally do. Left handed people eat with their right hand, and vice versa
* Remember, out of sight is out of mind. If there are goodies lying around on the counters or table; put them away and/or
hide them. That way whenever you walk through the kitchen you won't be tempted
* Make a trigger/thinspiration book filled with dieting tips, quotes, safe foods, and anything else that will trigger
you into not eating. When you feel the urge to binge, refer to your trigger book-it will remind you that you don't want to
stay fat
* If you eat at night before you go to bed make sure you lay on your left side it makes the food go through your system
faster and wont have as much time to absorb fat out of the food. but you shouldn't eat before you go to bed slows down your
metabolism
* Drink plenty of water, at least 8 glasses a day. This ensures that the kidneys are functioning properly. If you are
not fully hydrated this means that the kidneys are not working to their full capacity and results are that the waste products
are then dumped onto your liver which, is where the fat process actually occurs. Water actually speeds up your metabolism
