Waist trimmer belts won’t do a damn about the dough dangling over your belt buckle, but they are a great purchase because you can use them to hang yourself upon realizing how gullible you were for thinking that steaming yourself like a dumpling was the secret to fat loss.

You don’t need cardio to lose fat. Doing cardio to get lean is like having a kid to save a marriage.

Starve yourself. You’ll lose fat eventually. You shouldn’t actually starve yourself, but the point remains: diet does the denting. Adding cardio can help, but not by as much as everyone expects. When you finish a cardio session and feel your heartbeat behind your eyes, it’s natural to assume you just chewed through a massive wad of fat. As if whatever crumb was clinging to your abs surely melted, and a six-pack is now seconds away. In reality? Casual cardio barely kills off the calories inside one of those insect-sized boxes of raisins. Never mind the cupcakes, chips, and “reward food” you start morally bargaining for the moment you begin exercising.
