How To Get a Sharper Jawline

Image
Not everyone is born with chiseled features or high cheekbones because the facial structure is determined by genetics, but it’s very much possible to get a sharp and well-defined jawline by following certain tricks, and we are not talking about contouring technique that helps to cut angles and shape facial features using makeup. We can define the jawline and get a toned and slimmer face by following a proper diet and exercise routine because often facial fat hides the sharpness and definition of the jaw. To get a sharp jawline, we should give more importance to toning and strengthening muscles of the jaw. Since spot reduction of facial fat just does not work, toning facial muscles and losing overall body fat are the ideal solutions, and the good thing is that since the fat on the face is not considered “stubborn,” as belly or thigh fat, it’s relatively easy to lose.

10 Amazing Weight Loss Tips for Women Working in Night Shifts

Image
Working night shifts has become a norm nowadays and tweaking your diet and lifestyle according to the night shift has become a necessity. Countless cup of caffeine, fighting the body’s natural clock, low levels of melatonin (sleep hormone) – can all easily lead to weight gain. Various studies have pointed out that night shift workers have a tendency to put on weight compared to those who work in regular, 9 to 5 day shifts. People who undergo weight fluctuations while working in night shifts often blame their altered sleep cycles, low metabolism, and dependency on processed food behind their weight gain. Human beings have evolved to work during the day time and sleep peacefully in the night; however, when you work in night shifts, you are working against the body’s natural clock, circadian rhythm which makes it harder to sleep when the sun is out and regulates hunger, stress, and mood too. This alteration of body’s internal clock leads to major changes in fat-burning hormones and metabo...

6 Clever Ways To Eat Bananas in a Weight Loss Diet

Image
Everyone says all fruits and veggies are great to shed extra fat, but then, deliberately shun out bananas when embarking on a weight loss journey. If you have been skipping bananas just because of the popular myth that it leads to weight gain, you are missing out on so many essential nutrients that comes packed in a single piece of this fruit. Banana is often considered a high glycemic index fruit, which means it is believed to raise blood sugar relatively quickly; however, unknown to many, a medium ripe banana has a moderate glycemic index of 51 to 55, compared to watermelon (thought to be a weight-loss friendly fruit) which has a glycemic index of 72! Also, consider this – a medium sized banana can have up to 105 calories, but most of those calories have high nutritional value. Also, raw bananas (used in many cuisines across India in curry form) have resistant starch with prebiotic benefits, absolutely great for gut health. Banana can be considered a wholesome food with a great sourc...

14 Ways to Lose Inches and not Just Kgs From All Over Your Body

Image
Women would literally give their right arm for losing inches from their waist, hips and thigh region, to get an ideal figure, more precisely an hourglass structure. However, we all would agree that losing weight is relatively easy than losing inches because the belly, hip and thigh area have a different kind of fat with different set of receptors (also called stubborn fat), that is extremely resistant to the process of lipolysis or “fat burning.” That’s why, even after losing considerable amount of weight, a majority of women complain of “apron belly” and jiggly thighs. While spot reducing fat from areas that one desires remains a myth, the good news is that both inch loss and drop in pounds can happen at the same time with the right kind of diet and exercise. In this post, we look at different ways to lose inches and not just kgs from all over your body. When Does Weight Loss All Over Take Place? We all know that when we consume more calories than we can burn, our bodies tend to st...

Why Exercise Alone Won’t Make you Thin

Image
We often blame lack of exercise and physical activity as the reason behind weight gain and the inability to lose weight. A large part of it is true, but have you heard this saying, “abs are made in the kitchen?” Surprised? Because what mighty changes can be brought about with dieting, only tiny or negligible changes can happen with exercise alone. However, a combination of both exercise and dieting is considered ideal to lose weight with 80% emphasis on dieting and just 20% on exercise. Weight loss is based on the principle of “calorie deficit,” which means you put fewer calories in the body in terms of food and burn more calories through activity, because the calories which don’t get burned off are stored as fat. Unhealthy eating practices coupled with a sedentary lifestyle sets the stage for obesity and a whole lot of lifestyle disorders such as type 2 diabetes, stroke, heart disease, etc. In this post, we will explain why exercise alone won’t make you thin. The Weight Loss Ma...

11 Incredibly Cheap Foods from the Grocery Store to Help with Weight Loss
