Question

There is a simple way to lose weight (减体重). And you don't even have to give up the food you love or join a sports club. You just follow some habits that thin people have. Keep them, and you will become thin.

（1）Wake-up

When you wake up in the morning, sit up slowly without using your hands. With legs straight out, bend (弯曲)forward until you feel sore in your back. It will bum about 10 calories(卡里路热量）

（2）Start with soup

When you have a meal, order a clear soup, and have it before having the main food. In this way, you'll feel fuller, so you'll eat less when the main food comes.

（3）An apple (or more) a day

Apples are full of fiber (纤维) and water, so your stomach will want less. The study shows that people who eat at least three apples a day lose weight.

（4）Stand up and walk around

Every time you use the mobile phones, stand up and walk around. Heavy people sit two and a half hours more on average (平均) each day than thin people. This skill is very important because standing up and walking around will bum 50 or more calories.
