Interesting Fact! Charlize
Theron believes
that eating
small portions during
a day is a great way to improve
your metabolism.
That is why she eats six times a day but in small
portions.
How
to achieve flat
stomach without
torturing yourself with diets?
I’ve tried plenty of different
diets to achieve it.
But all of them were ineffective and required a lot of restrictions.
So I found out about new highly effective method. This is an example of my diet . Variation is acceptable, provided that you include certain products in your menu that help you fight with fat.
I
know it sounds unreal but in fact it works. Lots of men and women
have lost extra
weight in stomach area thanks
to that diet.
Here is the top 5
of miracle-working products: olives, nuts and seeds, avocado, vegetable oil,
and darkchocolate.
That’s right – CHOCOLATE. To get
rid of fat around your waist you
should eat fat!
The
authors of that diet are American dietologist Cynthia Sass and
chief editor of Prevention.com Liz Vaccariello. The main basis of
their diet is one of the latest invention in dietology.
By increasing the amount of good
fat on
you menu and reducing the amount of bad fat,
you loose
weight not
only faster but in the right places (it means you get rid of those
nasty folds
of fat on your tummy and hips).
The
secret
Good fat is monosaturated fat acids (olives, nuts and seeds, avocado, vegetable oil,
and dark chocolate).
They are not only delicious they
also make you feel full and we don’t feel hunger even
when we eat smallportions.
Cynthia and Liz suggest dividing your day into four food
intakes and
each time include one of the products stated below.
As
for the bad
fat,
you will have to forget about semi-products, sweets, bakery,
and fast-food.
Plan
of action
The program is divided into two phases. The first phase
takes four days. Its goal to improve
gastrointestinal tract functioning and
get rid
of bloating.
By the way, bloating can
be the real reason of your problem. If it is true, bloating will
vanish in a few days time.
The
second phase takes four weeks. During this period you will pull
up you abs, put
your digestive system in order,
and show off your stunning figure in
a new pair of jeans.
How
to get rid of bloating
Start
your day with two types of cellulose
Combination
of soluble
and insoluble cellulose works
great if you suffer from constipation and fastens removal of
extra fat from your body. You feel lighter, weigh less and you
stomach looks flat.
Fall on potassium
Bananas,
avocados, potatoes are
rich with potassium.
They help to remove excessive
body fluid, thereby
reducing a few more inches around your belly and hips. Excess
fluid is
the result of disbalance between sodium and potassium
which
occurs due to our misuse of salt, sauces, etc. Make yourself drop the
habit of salting your food (you can use spices instead) and try to
get 4700 mg of potassium a day (it’s about 4,5 glass of
potassium-rich products; see below)
For
example: 1 middle-sized baked potato, 1 banana, 1 papaya, avocado, ½
glass of tomato sauce, ½ glass of boiled spinach, 1 orange.
Stop eating caramel, chewing
gum, and soda
When
we drink something through a straw or when we swallow rapidly or suck
a caramel, lots of “spare” air accumulates in our digestive
system which causes flatulence and bloating.
Start
chewing food slowly, drink mineral water and replace chewing gum
with dry fruits, nuts,
etc.
Be
careful with raw vegetables and fruits! Fresh vegetables and fruits have
an amazing health-improving
effect.
But if you eat too much at once, your stomach stretches, thereby
making your belly look bigger.
Divide
5 portions of fruits and 7 portions of vegetables between food
intakes and use steam cooker, grill, etc. Cooked vegetables and
fruits are always smaller in size.
