“To achieve a great waistline, follow a fabulous diet”- Delna Pooniwala.

If only wishes could be granted, every woman would have a 26 waist. Unfortunately we are not as lucky and hence require leading our life sensibly.

Always associate your body with a balloon. The more we load into it, the more it would expand. Thankfully, we can reverse this too.
However, you need to understand that our body utilises most of the nutrients for various requirements. Proteins are used for cellular repair, combinations of vitamin D, calcium, magnesium and phosphorous protects against fractures, various vitamins and minerals are required for the body to work properly. Similarly, when carbohydrates run scarce, the body liquidates some of its fat tissues for energy.

Fats are stored to insulate the body and organs and also as a reserve for energy when required. The body deposits most of the peripheral fat around the waist. Hence, to achieve a slim and well defined waistline, one may require burning off the fat by indulging in a cardio vascular activity so that the body utilises these reserves.

During this process which may take a few weeks, one has to be careful that they do not replenish the fat reserves and would require being on a low fat or fat free diet. And very soon you would see yourself from Flab to ‘Fab’.
