How TO Lose Weight W/out Starving... Part II

Here is part 2 of helpful tips from Prevention Magazine on how to lose weight without sweating it out at the gym or living on salads.


1) Play waiting games: Instead of sitting there watching your computer download, do some stretches or butt squeezes. The key is to be active whenever you can.


2) Do chair-robics; for example... set a timer to go off every hour. When the buzzer dings stand up and sit down four times in a row. It is a great way to stretch during the day and you get in many rounds of squats each day, a great way to strengthen your lower body.


3) Go the distance: Instead of using the closest rest room or parking space. Challenge yourself to get in more walking by parking further away. Try using the rest room on another floor and take the stairs to get there. A great way for busy working women to get in a little extra exercise.
