1. Skip the salt. Yes, salt is essential to life, but
only in infinitesimal levels. Most of us consume many times that amount of salt
that we should, and eating a lot of salt leads to craving even more. So watch
those dried meats and exotic bubbly waters. Lots of salt lurks within.
2. Chill out. It is true: you really can stress yourself
into a paunch. The same neurochemicals that give us superhuman strength in an
emergency can trigger fat cell creation around your middle. Learn to calm yourself and you will have a better chance of seeing your feet.
3. Balance your
bacteria. Like many other things, there are good bacteria and bad bacteria in
our stomachs. Starting your day with a probiotic yogurt can keep the good guys
in the lead.
4. Sleep on it. This is the flip side of fighting stress.
Be sure to get enough sack time. Most experts recommend at least seven hours a
night. It also helps you reduce stress and avoid those late-night munchies.
5. Drink more water. This is a double whammy. Drinking
water means that you’re not drinking alcohol(gasp) which has tons of calories
and trashes your will power. The calories in a beer are very likely to migrate
to your belly. Just say no. Water is cheaper, too.
