But more often than not, you just find yourself with a pot belly and you hardly notice when it’s developing until you notice that your pants no longer fit.

you notice that your belly is no longer the same, could be you have recently developed habits that are making you pack on some pounds around your belly.

Could you be a victim of these common habits that cause belly fat?

1. Carbonated drinks

Especially when it’s hot, resisting the urge to gulp down several cans of soda is challenging. Even if you feel better after drinking it, it leaves you with more trouble than good. Research has shown that people who drank soda daily had a five times risk of developing belly fat compared to those who hardly take soda.

2. Eating late at night

With a busy working schedule, you may always find yourself eating late at night and getting on bed as soon as you empty your plate. While your body burns calories while asleep, it may not be very effective if you eat a lot of food and sleep immediately. Experts recommend eating light dinner and at least three hours before bed.

3. Using a large plate

Research has shown that people who always use large plates for each meal end up eating more food. Because the plate has more space for food, you might end up eating more than needed. If you  eat more than necessary,you won't escape from getting belly fat.

4. Daily alcohol

You are tired after a long day at work and you need to relax. You deserve to feel good but then, alcohol is full of sugars and calories. All these calories will get accumulated on your belly and the results? An ugly bulging belly.

5. No exercise

On average, we spend eight hours sleeping and around eight more hours seated in the office. That means that our bodies are physically inactive most of the time and this leads to accumulation of fat around our bellies. If your work does not involve moving around, then you must exercise regularly to avoid belly fat.

6. Eating when emotionally unstable

When you are angry, sad or stressed is not the best time to raid your fridge and eat anything and everything you find. Some people try to calm their emotions by eating which is not healthy. And, they eat absent minded and end up eating carelessly without giving their health a thought.

The only Relationship Advice you will Ever Need

 The Only Relationship Advice You’ll Ever Need Danstel 24, July 2020  You may already be rolling your eyes at the vast oversimplification of this title… and if you were to go back to read the many articles I’ve written on relationships, you’d know that I don’t think the secret to romantic success can be boiled down to one simple piece of advice. However, if people ask me what is the most important action we can take to improve our relationships and stay in love, I do have an answer, and that is to  just be kind . Yes, the suggestion seems obvious on one hand, but it’s actually really hard for most couples to take at a certain point in their relationship. Many people I’ve talked to resisted the recommendation, responding with statements like “I can’t do that, or “why would I be nice to him/her?” To understand why we have this resistance and why we often find it challenging to simply be kind to our partner, there are three important concepts to consider: Fear of Intimacy  – The reason ma

What's Ruining your Sex Life?

What’s Ruining Your Sex Life? Danstel17,2020 Sexuality invites us to be in the moment, connected to our body, our senses, and to another person. Yet having a “ critical inner voice ” sounding off in our minds during sex is a little like having an extra person in the room critiquing everything from our desirableness to our performance. These critical inner voices take us out of the experience, remove us from our bodies and leave us disconnected from our partner, robbing us of the precious aspects of sexuality. It’s probably no surprise to hear that research has shown that having higher self-esteem and a more positive body image is correlated with increased sexual satisfaction. On the other hand, negative thoughts toward ourselves heighten our stress levels, which can  decrease sexual satisfaction . One recent  study  showed that measures of self-esteem, autonomy, and empathy were positively associated with sexual pleasure, while other  research  has revealed that people with low self-es
