Diet Tips for a Flatter Tummy

I think this will help sa mga taong nagda-diet ngaun!!!... i've got this from a post sa isang blog... according sa blog na yun, this is based from an article sa cosmo mag...

1. Avoid salty and processed food.

Check food labels. Just because something doesn’t taste salty or sweet doesn’t mean that it isn’t high in belly bloaters (Sodium and Sugar)

2. Lay off the booze

Alcohol has a tendency to re-direct fat towards the midsection. “Research indicates that alcohol has the same effect as a magnet of a sponge for the abdominal region, wherein fat is accumulated more in the tummy instead of being spread out in the body. Notice how heavy drinkers have beer bellies despite their body size?” notes Quejada. Say no to carbonated drinks as well, which not only have a lot of sugar content, but can also instantly puff up your tummy.

3. Fill up on fiber

Not only do fiber-rich foods like fruits and veggies make you feel full, they also prevent constipation

4. Be Calorie conscious

Choose the source of your calories. Its not just how much you eat but how high the caloric content of your food that matters. Your caloric consumption and expenditure should cancel each other out, to avoid storing excess calories as fat , advises Quejada.

5. Don’t skip meals

This is the reason why starvation diets don’t work. Once you stop eating, your body sends a signal to your brain saying, “Hey, I don’t have much fuel left in me. You got to slow things down” Your metabolism slows down, burning even less than what you started with.

6. Eat five small meals

Have breakfast, lunch, dinner and 2 snacks in between. But you have to make sure that you eat smaller portions. This kind of diet will, in effect, speed up your metabolism.

3 THINGS I WON'T LET GO OF

1. FAMILY AND FRIENDS

I won't let go of my family... They love me for who I am... Also, I won't let go of my true friends!!! They accept the worst and better me!! I will love them forever... :)


2. MY SIMPLE LIFE.. THE SIMPLICITY

I still believe that simplicity is beauty. And with simple life, life would also be beautiful and happy. I am contented with my simple life.. Being with my family, keeping in touch with my friends, with a good work (earning a good amount of money), good career path! Good attitude towards work. I also have social life.. I have almost everything I want for my simple life... But I will still hold on to my dreams and goals...


3. MEMORIES

I won't let go of my memories... I will cherish my memories forever.. Memories with family, old friends, new friends I met along my journey! I don't mind if that memories are good or bad, because i know that though not good or a happy memory, this will help me find the real me and make me a better person.
