Cheese logs and stuffing and eggnog-oh my! We've been indulging in so many deliciously rich and salty holiday foods lately that "the average woman is carrying 5, 10, even 15 pounds of bloat," shares Columbia University-trained women's health guru Ann Louise Gittleman, Ph.D. "I call it 'false fat.' It not only makes waistbands tight and faces puffy, it stresses the body and causes real fat to accumulate faster." Luckily, Gittleman has a fix: She's discovered tasty foods and drinks that flush false fat away. "They can take off a dress or pant size in a hurry. The process also boosts metabolism, giving you more energy and making you better able to handle indulgences in the weeks ahead." You'll end up feeling merry and light!
Most of us enjoy holiday foods too much to rein in our eating this time of year. That's why we were thrilled that a team of Woman's World readers who tested Gittleman's strategies melted up to 5 pounds, 5 belly inches and a full size-all in 24 hours. How will your body respond? To find out, just hit the supermarket...
