Take a break from drinking alcohol
Alcohol is another act you can take to reduce face fat. Alcohol can be one of the biggest contributors to excess fat and stomach bloating. The empty calories in alcohol are not good for your body, and stick to you like glue. It can also cause dehydration and water retention, as well as decrease the hormone leptin that is responsible for feeling full.
Reduce your refined carb intake
Refined carbs are processed and are known for causing excess weight. Think cookies, pasta, and crackers. They have little to no nutrients or fiber, so they do nothing for your health. And they are ingested into your body quickly, which leads to drastic changes in blood sugar and in turn, can cause overeating. A study in almost 300 women revealed that refined carb intake has a direct impact on risk of obesity and belly fat.
Sleep more
One of the biggest changes you can make to improve your weight loss efforts is to get more sleep. This is because lack of rest affects so many aspects of life, that in turn affect weight gain. Lack of sleep causes increased cortisol levels. Heightened levels of this hormone can cause weight gain. It can also cause high appetite and lower metabolism.
