Stand up straight
Improving your posture is the quickest way to look several pounds thinner.
Drink water
Did you know the best way to get rid of excess water weight is to flush your body with water?
Cut the carbs
Cutting back on carbohydrates can produce substantial benefits. Carbs promote water retention that can increase cellulite and bloating, which are a woman's worst enemies.
Flatter your body type
Picking the right style and pattern for your body.
Apple or V-shape: Tummy control is your best friend. Suits with side-details or wraps camouflage your middle and help allude a cinched waistline. Search for a suit with an underwire to keep you from having an embarrassing wardrobe malfunction. Look for sleek and simple styles.
Pear or A-shape: Instead of boy shorts, find a high-cut bottom in a solid color that lengthens and leans your legs. Find a v-neck, patterned top to draw attention toward your upper body. Avoid large patterns that will accentuate your problem areas.
Rectangle or I-shape: Lean toward feminine ruffles and draping at the bust. An underwire or padding can also help you maintain a womanly figure. Look for waist embellishments, side cutaways or halter tops to accentuate your waist and create an hourglass figure.
Hourglass or X-shape: This is the shape most women pine for. Go for colors and patterns that draw attention to the areas you want to be noticed and camouflage the areas you want to hide.
