Get-Healthy Goals
While you're dieting, giving yourself a pat on the back when you hit your goals can help you stay motivated. Just be sure you're rewarding your behavior ("I ate healthy and went to the gym three times this week!"), rather than the number on your scale!

Say Goodbye to Those Last 10 Lbs. - Page 2

Look Like You Shed 10 Lbs. (Even When You Haven't!)

Get glowing with an allover self-tanner
Darker skin can give you the appearance of having shaved off 5 to 7 lbs. by slimming problem areas like your belly and thighs. Bonus: Self-tanner also masks stretch marks and cellulite.

Sport an updo
Tying your hair into a ponytail or a high bun will make you look taller and elongate your neck for a slimming look.

Act like a lady
Yes, even in that beach chair! Keep your legs together and crossed at the ankles -- not because you want to look like a good girl, but because your thighs and calves will look smaller.

Think matching shades
Slip on heeled sandals in a shade close to the color of your skin to elongate your legs. At the pool, look for a towel that matches your swimsuit to streamline your outline.

Tuck in to trim
Don't hide under that huge cotton tee -- adding another layer of fabric over your problem areas will only make them look bigger. Slim solution? Tuck in your shirt to shed instant inches from your waistline.
