you are now paying for your gluttony last Holiday season (Christmas and New Year food fest)
The extra pounds is now there to stay. (kidding!)
(Bakit kc minsan ang sarap lumamon tapos matulog na lang after.)
So you have that extra bulges lying around your tummy, arms, ass and everywhere ?
No need to worries, I'm gonna give you simple practical tips to still look fuckin good even
on the rubinesque voluptous plus size status.
As a photographer, I also do a lot of styling, so I am a pro at making people look great.
here are some tips to look 10 pounds thinner instantly without exercise!
1. Be YOURSELF. notice how girls with confidence appear so bright and beautiful. Because people will only like you if you only like yourself. Be forgiving of your flaws, no one is perfect. Kahit si Lucy Torres malaki noo pero shes damn fine coz she emits confidence and grace.
2. Wear slimming clothes. Dark colors are good, like black, dark blue, dark red, brown, dark grey etc. Vertical lines also create illusion of being slimmer. Avoid big patterns and shiny fabric. Low necklines are also great to elongate the neck
3. Proportion your clothes to your size. Wag na ipilit ang small pag large ka. You'd only look stuffed if you wear too little clothes for your size. ON the other hand , do not wear too large and bulky clothes
4. Wear big accessories. Big earrings, big long necklaces (avoid chokers because it hides your neck) big bags, they all make you look smaller (the logic behind there is...di ba kapag itinabi ka sa mas malaki sa yo muka kang lumiliit?)
5. Wear clothes that already has sexy shapes. Look for the kind of clothes that has lines and cut that is hour glass, Corset's are nice too.
6. If your gonna be at the beach this summer...try a swimsuit that has a nice cut, is dark and has lots of pattern, coz patterns will distract the eyes from the bulges. A sarong is nice & fashionable too.
7. Have a nice tan. A nice tan makes u look healthier and instantly thinner. try the fake tan treatments at BELO to avoid the damaging effects of the sun. Pag maxado kang white and pink you'd look like a pig.
8. Have a niceHaircut. Try long layered hairstyle( for women) , short hair only makes full sized women chubbier, for men, its different, try the cropped look, make sure your hair at the sides is thin and me spikes. it mellows the roundness of your face.
9. Wear heels. the higher the better for obvious reasons it makes your legs look longer.
10. Stand up straight. Do not slouch. It gives you an air of confidence plus your posture looks much better.
11. Learn how to contour your face when doing your makeup. Try putting on bronzer on the hollows of your cheeks and jawline and lower chin area to make your face look thinner. (pde ren sa guys to just use a darker foundation and blend well)
Enhance your eyes and lips so that the attention goes there.
There you go, This will make you LOOK instantly thinner, but hey it is no substitute for a healthy living and good exercise. So please eat healthy and move your ASS!
unless you have Shallow Hal as a boyfriend! :)

In this day and age deep breathing exercises can help with weight loss, relaxation, and sense of well being. Most of us are not breathing properly by breathing air up into our chest. Look at yourself in the mirror. Your lungs hang all the way down toward the bottom of your rib cage. More than likely, you're not filling them up with the precious air they need. Most of us inflate just the upper portion.
Simply lay down totally flat on your bed, your couch, or floor. Relax for a second or two before taking a deep breath. Now breathe in deep through your nose. Push your belly up while taking the air inside. Stick your chin on your chest and watch your belly rise. When you've got as much air as you can hold, stop and hold your breath. Try holding it for ten or twenty seconds. If you're like most people, you're dying to let it out at the end of the twenty seconds. Go ahead. Pitiful isn't it?
Not only that, but did you feel your lungs stretching out? You don't feel that very often do you? It feels good and bad at the same time, right? That's because you're not used to it. Try it a couple of more times. It gets easier each time, right? That's the beauty of re-training yourself to breathe properly and when you implement some easy breathing exercises you will feel the difference. Don't you feel relaxed and refreshed at the same time? Your body is saying thank you, thank you! Just that very tiny bit of deep breathing and your body feels better. An immediate reaction.
Now think of this. That extra oxygen you gifted your body with is now moving through your bloodstream, slightly increasing your flow, and getting rid of excess waste and fat. All that in a matter of seconds! Keep lying on the floor, bed, or couch, and practice a little more. Get used to how deep breathing feels. Close your eyes and sense the rhythm of the deep breath you're taking. Memorize it.
Keep practicing for 5 more minutes. Now sit up. Again, try to accomplish the same deep breath while sitting up. Sit up straight. Start breathing in through your nose -then slowly stick your chin on top of your chest and watch your belly inflate with air. This may be a little harder because you might unconsciously revert back to shallow breathing. You'll know that this is true if your belly isn't inflating and you feel all the air in your lungs high in your chest. Don't give up. Concentrate on inflating your belly. Once filled as much as possible, hold it for twenty seconds and release through your mouth. You must practice this technique a few times to get used to it.
So by now, you should have a real sense of how to breathe deep. Now what? Take a day or two and just practice the technique. Learn how your body feels. Memorize the actual process of taking in, holding, and releasing all that extra oxygen. After a day or two of practice, you're ready for your daily workout.
What's all this have to do with your program? Plenty! Think about it... Oxygen is fuel for your body as is food. There are no calories in oxygen. You can breathe in all you want for as long as you want and still no calories! Not only that, but the extra oxygen you take in will cause the chemical reactions in your body to take place much faster, thus, you burn more calories than you take in. This in turn speeds up your metabolism and makes you burn more fat.
