Protein and fiber-rich meals
Protein and fiber-rich meals can help you to take care of your figure. Adding protein to your diet has been linked to weight loss, even without exercise or conscious calorie restriction.
In particular, breakfast is very important. In one study, overweight or obese women who had eggs for breakfast ate fewer calories at lunch compared to those who ate a grain-based breakfast.
Take the stairs, avoid elevators!
Little tricks like this one can help you stay fit without exercise.
Drink water!
Drinking water can help you eat less and lose weight, especially if you drink it before a meal.
One study found that drinking half a liter (17 ounces) of water about 30 minutes before meals reduced hunger and lessened calories intake.
Turn off TV when you’re eating
Paying attention to what you eat may help you consume fewer calories.
Several studies found that people who were distracted at a meal ate about 10% more in that sitting.
Grab a basket instead of a cart at the grocery store
“Walking around the store carrying your groceries will help you build core and shoulder strength,” explains Marie V. Ande, a certified strength and conditioning specialist, in Flemington, New Jersey.
Pay attention to your posture
Standing up straight is not that easy. “Maintaining good posture while standing, sitting, walking requires that you engage and tighten multiple muscles—so much so in fact that most people cannot maintain proper posture for even one minute,” said a fitness specialist.
Practice standing and sitting up straight, with your core tight, and your shoulders pulled back and down.
Stretching is the key-word
Taking a few minutes to stretch in the early morning is one of the simplest ways to help get in shape, Dr. Greuner says. “Easy, simple stretches wake up your mind and body and increase blood flow and inflow of nutrients to your muscles,” he claimed.
Choose the right chair
There are lots of active sitting chairs that let you bounce, rock or sway to help you get fit while you sit, says David Skolnik, doctor of physical therapy and certified strength and conditioning specialist.
