You’ve bought a figure-hugging cocktail dress to wear on Christmas/New Year eve. But now you’re wondering whether you’ll fit into it again? Worry not, help is at hand. Here are some easy tips on how you can fill up that dress beautifully. 
You don’t have to go on some crazy diet like Hollywood celebrities. Just follow these simple tips till D-Day (and beyond) and you’ll be ready to wow your man.
Increase your water intake
The best and the easiest way to lose some extra curves on your body is to drink as much water as you can throughout the day. Water reduces fluid retention naturally and helps release toxins from the body that in turn results in weight loss. It will also help you feel less hungry. But the side effect is that you’ll need to have easy access to loos at all times.
Start exercising
If you want any weight-loss plan to be successful, it is essential that you do some kind of physical activity. You needn’t break your back at the gym; all you have to ensure that the blood starts flowing through body. Even a daily brisk walk for about 45 minutes does the trick. Dancing and sex are other more entertaining options.
Eat small
Most people tend to have two to three large meals in a day. This causes the body’s metabolism to stall as it’s forced to process a higher number of calories at one go. What works better for your body (and you) is to have four to six smaller meals. This jumpstarts your body into processing smaller amounts of food more frequently, thereby taking the pressure off it.
Most importantly though, never eat late. Eating early and on time allows complete digestion of your last meal before your body goes into sleep mode.
Eat slow
This is such a simple and basic technique to avoid putting on weight that most people don’t even know of it, or just plain ignore it. When you eat slow, you enjoy your food more, you chew better which helps your stomach in breaking it down for digestion, and you eat less.
Say no to junk food
We all know how difficult it is to suppress our junk food pangs, which is the root cause of instant weight gain. So, control you cravings for some of the most tempting items that are blacklisted as junk food. They are high on calories and have low nutritional value. Processed food is a strict ‘NO’.
Enjoy home food
It is important that you enjoy your food. So when you are eating at home, make sure you like what you eat. As we all know, when it comes to eating out, we all forget about our diet plans. Most restaurant meals include twice the number of calories than a home-cooked meal. For your weight-loss plan to be successful, you must be able to control your cravings and turns towards healthy home food. Dining out occasionally is acceptable.
Avoid sugary drinks
To make your weight-loss plan more effective, you need to cut down on drinks laden with sugar right away. This includes colas, ‘fresh’ packaged juices, sherbets, and the like. You will be happy to know that if we replace sugared drinks with a no-calorie substitute, you can lose about a pound per week without any efforts. Amazing isn’t it?
Drink Green Tea
Call it a trend but drinking green tea is one of the easiest ways to control your weight. It is said that drinking tea, especially the less processed green teas, boosts metabolism even while you’re resting and specifically targets the release of stored fat.
Control your sweet cravings
It is quite possible that in the middle on the day or after your meals, you might crave for something sweet. Chocolates and desserts for that matter will make you lose your focus towards your controlled eating habits very easily. Don’t let that happen. Eat desserts, but in small amounts.
