Microwave Fat Away
Blast the fat from your diet tip: microwave and drain bacon on a paper towel before eating.
Cellulite Tips
Exercise isn't effective in ridding these Vanity Tormentors, so if you have cellulite, it may be something that you have to learn to live with.
Milk Tips for Weight Loss
Rather than use full-bodied buttermilk in your favorite recipe, try using skim milk that's been 'soured' with teaspoon of white vinegar. You'll never be able to tell the difference. Or, try adding 1/2 of REAL buttermilk to the recipe and 1/2 cup of skim milk.
