Do Your Waist, Hips and Thighs Make a Visual Impact?

Does How You Feel Have to Do with How You Look?

How a woman is viewed usually starts with their facial beauty than goes to their waist, hips, and thighs.  Up until the invention of plastic surgery the only thing that women could change as it relates to their own bodies was their weight.  It has been researched that the emotions of many women are directly related to how they view themselves, more specifically when it comes to their body’s and the things they would want to change.

Woman With Pear Shaped Body

Here is a great example of a pear shaped woman.  Most women I speak with would rather be a pear shape versus a apple shape and when asked why they simply say because they at least have some hips and thighs.  I also would think it’s because they would rather have fat on their buttocks as oppose to most of it in their breast and waistline.

Do You Know Your Shape or Body Type?

What is your shape apple or pear?  Most women know that there are two widely known body types which are the apple and pear shapes but don’t know which one they are or what things they can do to help to achieve a better look .

The Apple Shaped Woman

The apple body shape woman will tend to have narrow hips, slightly bigger breasts and a waistline that is bigger than 0.8 when measured using the waist-to-hip ratio (WHR). An apple type body will have the excess fat mainly stored around the breast and waist.

The Pear Shaped Woman

The pear shape body is a woman who has a smaller upper body and a heavier lower body. These women will usually have smaller breasts, thicker hips and thighs, and a waist-to-hip ratio of lower than 0.8.  For pear shaped women you will get most of you fat stored in below your waistline around your buttocks, hips and thighs.

How to Change Your Look and Be More Confident

If you look on the internet you will always find something like apple shape exercises or pear shape exercises.  Listen ladies don’t waste your time trying to find a particular exercise to solve your issue with your body type.  If you want to gain more confidence you must first realize and accept that you are already beautiful and that you want to make a change.  Below are some tips to help change your look:

A Smaller Waistline Comes from Eating Less

Far too many women think or are even told that they need to do some silly waist exercise in order to get a smaller waistline or hips.  Getting a smaller waist or just losing weight period comes from eating less calories than your body needs to burn for fuel.  When you eat fewer calories your body is forced to use reserved fat for fuel and hence you lose both fat and weight.  I recommend intermittent fasting as a way to allow you to not only eat the foods you like but also lose weight.

All Cardio Is Not Equal, Some Types of Cardio Work Better Than Others

Any woman who gets off their butt and actually does cardio deserves a round of applause as too many decide not to do anything and can’t figure out why they are losing weight.  Behind dieting cardio would be one of the most important aspects of losing weight and getting those hips and thighs looking sexy.  Doing cardio is great but you should be focusing on what is known as high intensity interval training (HIIT).  This type of cardio can be done 2-3 times per week and only takes about 20 minutes out of your day.  The great thing is that you will be blown away at the amounts of calories you burn both inside and outside of the gym.

Change the Way You Dress To Change Your Look

A lot of women simply wear the wrong clothing for their particular body type.  If you are an apple shape and carry most of your weight in your midsection then you should stay away from two piece bathing suits as all this does is draw attention to the area that you are least comfortable with.  I am no fashion designer but I do know that I you don’t like something about your body the last thing you want to do is point it out to everyone else.

What’s the Key To it All?

The one thing that most women miss when trying to look better and lose weight is sticking with the plan long enough to see it through.  I see this all the time with women who start something and don’t see the results they were expecting.  Instead of sticking with it they decide to change something about what they are doing or even worse jump ship and try something completely different.  You have to give your diet and exercise enough time to actually work.  Be focus and give yourself credit where credit is due, if you lose 1 or 2 pounds be happy.  To help you on your journey make sure you keep a journal and write down everything you eat and do and go over it each week.

For Women Looking To Get That Sexy Body

If you are looking to lose some weight and achieve a sexy body with a flat stomach, nice hips and thighs than in a few months I will have a program for you.  A friend of mine Rusty over at Fitness Black Book will be launching an Ebook called “Visual Impact for Women”.  I don’t have the details just yet, but I will keep you up to date as I get more info.

Intermittent Fasting Will Help Your Waist and Hips Get Smaller

What Exactly is Intermittent Fasting?

Intermittent fasting for fat loss in your waist and hips is something that is not only possible but very effective.  Intermittent fasting is simply the process of taking a break from eating all the time.  Instead of eating 4 to 6 meals a day 7 days per week you limit your meal intake to just one meal a day twice a week.  You will basically have a pattern of where you are eating normal for a couple of days followed by a period of fasting where instead of drinking just water all day, you will have just one meal at night.

The Benefits of Intermittent Fasting (IF)

Losing Weight/Looking Smaller Using IF

I think the number one reason most women look to IF is simply because they are looking for a way to lose weight quickly.  Intermittent fasting will definitely help you get a smaller waistline and hips and you will surely drop weight quickly if you do it correctly and on a regular basis.  It will not only help you lose weight but also keep it off.  You will look smaller in your face and your clothes will fit a lot better because the fasting helps you get rid of the bloated look.

Detoxification is Another Benefit of Fasting

Many people go on long detoxification diets in order to cleanse their bodies and lose weight.  This is completely unnecessary as the body is made to cleanse itself if given the proper time to do so.  Fasting allows your body to cleanse itself from the many toxins that you breathe in, the foods you eat, and many of the products you use for grooming and cleaning your home.  The toxins build up in your body and organs because you don’t give your body enough time to detoxify itself.  By fasting once or twice a week you give your body the time needed to rest and detoxify.

Intermittent Fasting to Lose Weight

Intermittent Fasting for Better Sleep

Who doesn’t want to be able to sleep better at night?  The fact is that when you use fasting on a weekly basis your body is actually more relaxed and less stressed so you actually sleep better.  This can have both its upside and downside.  The good thing is that you obviously sleep better at night, however there going to be days where you sleep so good you are not going to want to wake up for work.

Will You Be Hungry When You Fast

A lot of women ask me if they will have the feeling of hunger while they are on a fast.  This is a question that deserves more than just a yes or no answer.  First you have to realize that over the past 10-20 years you have trained both your mind and body to eat every several hours whether it needed to or not.  So the first part of my answer is yes you will “feel hungry”.  The hunger you will feel however will be because your body is “use to eating” not because you “need to eat”.  When you feel hunger it is just your brain telling your body that normally we eat at this time.  In other words it’s your body whining for more food.  Give it water instead so that you can still have a full feeling but you don’t intake the unnecessary calories.

How To Get Your Waist to Hip Ratio

Get A Smaller Waist and Better Hips But It’s Not Easy

Yes incorporating fasting into your weekly schedule won’t only help you get a better waistline and smaller hips, it’s cheap and it’s something you can continue for the long-term.  Unlike most fad diets intermittent fasting doesn’t cost anything and you can adjust it as you please.  With all these upsides why aren’t more women doing it.   Well simply because it’s not EASY!  I’m not saying that it is difficult or too hard, it’s just not easy.

Going to the gym, eating better, and being more active is not hard but a lot of people fail because they think it should be easy and it’s not.  It takes having focus and be dedicated to know that on two days out of the week you are only going to eat “ONE MEAL”.  On top of that not only are you going to only he one meal per day you have to make sure it’s a normal meal.  What I mean by this is that you can’t overdo it by consuming more in that one meal than you normally would.  If on a regular day your dinner is only 750 calories than on your fasting day it has to be the same.  No eating 1200 calorie meal followed by your favorite desert because you fasted that day.

So you have Lost Some Weight – Tips To Keep It Off

So many women lose weight only to see it come right back a few weeks or months later. The fact is the even though so many people are able to lose weight only a few are able to actually keep it off and move on to the next goal. Becoming complacent once you have lost weight only allows you to slip back into old ways.

Hearing people say you look great and letting it go to your head usually allows time for you to slip on your diet and going back to doing things that you stopped to lose the weight. Here are some tips to make sure you keep the pounds off that you have already lost.

“Holding on to your old clothing could be another reason for your weight loss and gain cycle.  Having clothes that fit what you use to weigh allows you to slide back into them without notice until it is too late.  Get rid of them and buy nice new clothes that fit the new you!”

Watch Less Television

Stop watching so much television and go do something with that time. Try cutting down a hour of television and go walking or to the beach. The problem is that many people eat while they are watching tv even if they are not hungry. Between all the food commercials and being so close to your own refrigerator it is easy to want something to snack on. Go read a book, play with your kids or spend time with your husband or boyfriend.

Throw away old clothing

I deal with this with my wife all the time and frankly it’s a battle so I know how women must feel about old clothes. The problem is that you have reached a goal for weight loss and need to put the past behind you. Allowing yourself to keep the clothes in your closet allows you to slip back to your old weight without even noticing it. You will simply just go in a grab something and before you know it you are back at your previous weight. Get rid of them and buy new ones that fit your current size.

Take a lot of Pictures

Make sure you take pictures of how you look at the weight you never want to be again. Then as you start to lose weight take pictures of how you are now. When you start comparing the old you to the new you it will make you see how far you have come and will give you more confidence and motivation to continue one. You will be driven to never go back to the way you were before you lost all the weight.

It’s Not a Diet It’s A Lifestyle Change

The problem with most weight gain after weight loss has occurred is that people stop the diet that they are on. I you choose a weight loss diet or program make sure it is something you can continue. Don’t look at it as a diet but rather a lifestyle, because with diets once you are done you go back to eating the way you were before and the weight comes back. This is why I like “Eat Stop Eat” by Brad Pilon. It allows you to enjoy foods and keep weight off and its very simple to make into a lifestyle.

NOTE: If you follow these tips I will guarantee that you will keep the weight off. Give “Eat Stop Eat” a try as it allows you to currently eat what you are eating without any changes in the foods you buy. You simply make simple adjustments to your meal times.
