Fibre, tomato juice & splitting meals
7. Eat more fibre
It's vital to eat enough fibre to whoosh waste through the body. A high-fibre diet of fruit, nuts and vegetables can help you lose 5-7lb of toxic waste and flatten your tummy by 2in. You should have 20-25g fibre per day, or five portions.
8. Try a tomato juice appetiser
Before you dive into dinner, try drinking a glass of chilled tomato juice. As well as taking the edge off your appetite so you won't scoff your meal, tomatoes are full of potassium, a mineral that reduces water retention, so you won't feel bloated and puffy after your meal.
9. Split your meals
If you're prone to night-time munchies and are hunting for a snack at 10pm, eat half your dinner at the normal time and save half for later. Eating late never makes you fat, it's how much you eat overall that counts. You can save dessert for supper, too.
