3 bad lunch habits that make your waistline bulge
Just one of these habits is enough to cause your waistline to accumulate more and more fat.
Lunch is an equally important meal, especially for Vietnamese people. However, due to a few mistakes during lunch, your wasp waist will soon become fatter. Therefore, if you want a slim waist, in addition to exercising, you should also pay attention to avoid the following noontime habits that make your waist bigger:
Not sitting up straight while eating
While eating, if you often squat or bend your knees, it will not only make food difficult to digest but also cause compression of the abdominal muscles. From there, over time, the abdominal muscles will sag and create fat rolls around the waist.
Therefore, while eating, you should remember to sit up straight and keep your stomach flat so that food can be easily digested, not causing back pain, and also limiting fat accumulation around the waist, causing belly fat.

Using electronic devices while eating
Electronic devices, especially phones or computers, are popular and indispensable items for many young people. However, entertaining yourself with electronic devices while eating will distract you from your meal. At this time, people usually eat too much because their bodies do not have time to realize when their stomach is full.
In addition, using electronic devices while eating also makes the stomach work less effectively, so excess fat is also easier to accumulate and cause obesity. Therefore, just spending 30 minutes for a meal without using electronic devices will help protect your waistline and keep your measurements much safer.

Sleep right after eating
Almost everyone feels sleepy right after eating. This is because after eating, blood must rush to the stomach to digest food. At this time, the amount of blood pumped to the brain and other organs is reduced, which often leads to sleepiness.
However, the habit of sleeping right after eating not only harms the stomach, increases the risk of heart disease and stroke, causes heartburn... but also slows down digestion, and reduces the efficiency of energy metabolism. This causes fat accumulation and an increasingly large waistline, which is inevitable.
Therefore, it is best not to sleep immediately after eating. You should only go to bed at least 30 minutes after eating. This will help protect your health as well as your waist and body shape. In addition, if you sleep, you should lie straight, do not put your head on the table, causing pressure on your stomach, making your waist more likely to be fat.
