Would you like to look slimmer and feel more confident? There are a few simple things you can do to look thinner.
Short-Term Solutions
Improve Your Posture
Improving your posture is the fastest and easiest way to improve your appearance. Keep your chin up and your back straight. It may take some effort at first, but improving your posture will help you look and feel better almost instantly.
Invest In New Clothing
There are many simple wardrobe changes you can make that will help you look slimmer.
- Invest in shapewear and a bra that fits correctly. Shapewear will smooth out your curves and hide imperfections. Get measured and invest in a bra that fits well. A bra that properly supports you will make you look slimmer and help your waist stand out.
- Choose dark clothing and solid colors. Black is a classic option, but dark blues, purples, and greens can be slimming while still adding some color to your wardrobe.
- Lengthen your whole body with heels. For maximum impact, wear nude heels when you’re wearing shorter dresses or skirts.
Long-Term Solutions
Change Your Exercise Routine
Adding strength training to your workout routine comes with many benefits. In many cases, lifting weights and doing bodyweight exercises can take inches off your waist, thighs, and upper arms, even if you don’t lose any pounds. If you don’t enjoy lifting weights, consider taking a yoga class or a Pilates class. Cardio is important, but other exercises will build tone throughout your body and help you look and feel better.
Get Help Losing The Extra Weight
While looking slimmer is a great start, the best and most lasting solution is to lose those stubborn extra pounds. Losing the extra weight won’t just make you look better, you’ll have more energy, be less prone to illness, and lower your risk for serious health problems like diabetes, heart disease, and cancer. Riverside Medical Arts has a variety of programs that can help you lose the extra pounds. Some patients can benefit from appetite suppressant therapy while others need hormone balancing therapy to treat thyroid problems. Schedule a consultation to learn more about your options
