SKIP BREAKFAST
After years of being told that to breakfast like a king is essential to fire up metabolism, that breakfast eaters are slimmer, more quick-thinking and more inclined to eat healthily, the weight of evidence has turned. It is now known that while some of us are naturally inclined to be breakfast eaters, others are not. And it makes not a blind bit of difference to our weight or well-being. Joanna Lumley confesses to barely touching breakfast, and Liz Hurley says she maintains her figure by consuming hot water and the occasional espresso in the morning, adding 'the only meal I have is dinner'.
SLEEP YOURSELF SLIM
Dropping oestrogen levels trigger a switch in the pattern of fat storage from the bottom to the abdomen. You can wake up one morning to find there's nothing to fill your trousers - but plenty bulging over the waistband. Study after study also shows stress makes abdominal fat worse - even in otherwise thin women. So adequate rest is key to keeping that slender youthful waist.

A good night's sleep is one of the best ways to balance errant hormones and reduce stress. During deeper sleep, human growth hormone (HGH) is released. Not only does it repair muscles but it works hard to convert fat to fuel, naturally reducing levels of the stress hormone, cortisol - the enemy of the nipped-in waist.
