RIO Fitness Chicago® Tip:

Four successful ways to cut cal & burn fat that literally take 60sec or less.

1) Sprinkle flax on your cereal or low cal yogurt. High-fiber ground flaxseed can help curb your appetite and eliminate calories.

2) Schedule a blood test. About 1 in every 12 people (most of whom don't know it) has an underactive thyroid, which can slow down your metabolism.

3) Buy a 32oz+ eco-friendly water bottle to carry around with you to work/school/etc. Stay hydrated, prevent overeating, and keep you skin looking healthy.

4) Eat a chunky salad full of chopped carrots, celery, sweet potatoes, zucchini, or other veggies instead of shredding or slicing. It takes more effort to munch bigger pieces; you'll do more chewing and eat less during the main course.
