Weight-loss Tip: Do not slouch in your chair, but try to maintain a straight posture and activate your abdominal muscles so that your tummy is tucked in.

Weight-loss Tip: Eat spicy foods. Spices such as cayenne pepper contains capsaicin, a compound that can boost metabolism and reduce your appetite slightly.

Weight-loss Tip: Avoid refined carbohydrates. Refined carbs are usually sugar or grains that’ve been stripped of their fibrous, nutritious parts, such as pasta.

Weight-loss Tip: Exercising in a group or with a friend helps greatly in ensuring you exercise regularly and consistently.

Weight-loss Tip: Don’t skip meals. When you get too hungry, you’re less likely to make healthy choices and your body will start storing fat.
