Tummy flattening tips.....

Here's a quick guide you can follow to help flatten your stomach. Print this list out and post it somewhere in your house where you'll see it.

1. Walk/jog for 30 minutes at least 3 times per week to boost your metabolism in order to burn that fat.

2. Eat a small handful of almonds (at least 6) every morning. Almonds are one of the healthiest snacks you can eat and the protein is good for burning fat.

3. Purchase a DVD and do the exercises at least 2-3 times per week. Works on toning your entire body with concentration on your powerhouse (middle section) and will improve your flexibility.

4. Add fiber to your diet and cut down your intake of the bad crabs. Foods such as white bread, pastas, potatoes, and white rice should be limited. Eat brown rice and whole wheat bread instead. To get that needed fiber increase your intake of fresh fruits and vegetables (especially the leafy green ones).

5. Drink skim milk instead of whole milk. Keep your dairy intake at a minimum because these products often cause bloating and gas.

6. Perform proper crunches at least 3 times a week to train your abs. Avoid sit-ups because they really do very little to firm your stomach. Sit-ups work your hip flexors more than anything else.

7. Drink plenty of water. You should be drinking 6 to 8 glasses per day. Not only will it help fill you up so you eat less, but it aids in digestion.

8. Stop eating within 3 hours of bedtime. If you have to munch on something, eat a small portion of vegetables or fruit. Not eating late can make a huge difference.

9. Eat smaller meals more often instead of 2-3 big meals per day to keep from having that bloated look and feeling. Eating more meals actually kicks up your metabolism.

10. Take a break from healthy eating once in a while and treat yourself to your favorite dessert. If you completely deprive yourself of the foods you love you'll run the risk of going back to your bad eating habits. Moderation is the key.

Just remember that slow and steady wins the race when it comes to slimming your waistline and flattening your stomach. There's no such thing as losing your stomach fast. You have to work at it daily and remain consistent with your diet and exercise.

* For building iron in your body eat plenty of spinach juice.

* If you exercise with music, you will exercise longer and enjoy it more. Choose something upbeat and energizing.

* On a busy day, take 20 minutes to go for a brisk walk to help reduce stress.

* Eat most of your fat and calories for the day, in the morning. Doing this will put your metabolism into high gear. Then eat lean the rest of the day.

* While running, if you have stomach cramps, stop and bend forward from the waist. Breath in and out, slowly and deeply while contracting your abdominal muscles.

* While doing housework, increase the pace to get some extra exercise and calorie burning.

* If you are having problems with migrain headaches, drink some hot tea with honey and this should help ease the pain.

* Always take the steps instead of the elevator if you plan on cutting down those extra calories.

* Eat a bowl of oatmeal each day to lower your cholesterol.

* Drink plenty of water since it helps liver function well and your body will benefit and that will show from your glowing skin. So also drink plenty of water before, during and after exercising.

* To lower blood pressure, improve your mood and relieve depression, exercise regularly.

* If you experience pain, dizziness, shortness of breath, irregular heartbeat or increased fatigue while exercising, call a doctor immediately.

* Begin your workout with warm-up exercises and end with cool-down exercises.

* If you suffer from eczema, avoid heat and sweating.

* Wear loose, lightweight clothing while exercising. Choose natural fabrics that will breathe.

* When it is hot outside, drink more water and avoid caffeine and alcoholic beverages.

* Ear ache - place a piece of potato (raw) in the ear-remove later.

* Breathe naturally while doing stretching exercises. Never hold your breath.

* Make soups the day before and refrigerate. Skim the fat off the top before reheating.

* To feel as though you are eating more, slow down and chew thoroughly. Take at least 20 minutes to eat a meal. Taking longer to eat will make you feel fuller and also helps in digesting food properly.

* When going to see a doctor, write down the questions you want to ask. Also, write down the answers. If you don't understand the answer, ask again! Take along any medication bottles you are taking.

* Keep your attitude positive and smile.

* urning down the lights an hour or two before bedtime will help you get a better night's sleep.

* Avoid smoke-filled rooms and breathing or exercising near busy roads. Exercise in clean environment.
