How to burn 500 calories and slash belly fat fast without exercising

1. Keep cool and carry on

A study published in The Journal of Clinical Investigation revealed an easy way to torch calories.

Apparently, you can increase you fat-burning metabolism by 80% by sitting in a cool room.

In temperatures of 18C or less, you can shed 500kcal in six hours.

While this may sound too good to be true, slimmers who tried the theory over the course of 6 weeks lost 5% of their body fat.

Research suggests that this is because you use more energy by trying to stay warm.

So if you’re hoping to get trimmer, try sitting near the air con or wearing less clothes on a chilly day.

2. Shop ’til you drop

It’s always easier to stick to a weight loss regime if you incorporate it into your everyday lives.

If you’re a fan of shopping, you’ll be pleased to know that retail therapy can help to reduce your waistline.

Those who carry heavy baskets or push a trolley around can expect to burn around 200 calories an hour.

What’s more, standing in queues for 30 minutes can torch upwards of 50 kcal.

Staggeringly, a Debenhams study found that the average woman drops 48,000 calories each year by going shopping.

3. Stay hydrated

Drinking more water is a great way to kick-start your weight loss journey.

Not only does it keep you feeling fuller for longer, it can also speed up your metabolism.

Sipping on super chilled water can also help you to burn more calories, as it shocks the body into warming it up.

According to a study published in the Journal of Clinical Endocrinology and Metabolism, your body will burn 7 calories converting a 250ml glass of ice cold water to body temperature.

If you were to drink 10 ice cold glasses a day for a week, you’d torch an extra 490 calories per week.

And after a year you’d end up slimming down by a whopping 7lbs, just by drinking water.
