3 Ways to look 10 Pounds Thinner Now

You might think my first post might be about nutrition and exercise. But, no! What can you do NOW to walk out the door looking slimmer, taller, and prouder?

Make sure you have a bra that fits.

Call them what you may, but the girls need your attention. Consider this, the average woman changes bra sizes 6 times in her lifetime. "Many women wear the wrong bra size. Nothing can make a person appear larger than a bra so tight it creates rolls or lines in the back or cleavage areas. To make sure your bra fits well, get a bra sizing. Go to any Victoria's Secret store (or almost any department store) to get a bra sizing. Wearing the correct bra size will make your shirts and dresses fit better."

Improve Your Posture

"Dancers know that good posture is key to looking long, lean and graceful. Lengthening and straightening the spine can help you look slimmer. To improve posture, focus on straightening the spine, relaxing the shoulders and tightening the stomach muscles. Think about making yourself taller without changing the position of your feet. Improving posture will help to instantly change your overall look."

Choose Slimming Clothes

"Clothing can help to either add or subtract pounds from your overall look. Many women make the mistake of trying to fit into smaller sizes to look thinner. The truth is, squeezing into smaller sizes could make you look like a stuffed sausage. Instead of trying to fit in a smaller size, try on a size larger than your normal size. Often times wearing a larger size will help to make you look slimmer. Don't, however, wear anything too baggy. You just want to wear a size that fits well and gives you enough room to feel comfortable."

So, go do it. Get fitted for that new bra and stand up tall in your well fitting clothes. Don't you feel better already?
