Slimming tip : Work as an auditor.

What you need:
A laptop weighing a minimum of 3kgs (including cords and documents)
A pair of pumps which are too small for your feet

What to do:
1. Apply for a job as a Vacation Trainee in an auditing firm.
2. Do not go shopping before you start your job so that you have to wear your mom’s shoes to work.
3. Be lucky enough to be put on an assignment where you have to go to a building which does not have public transportation nearby.
4. Get into a train that is crammed like tuna in a can. Ensure that you have just enough (not more) space to allow a sheet of paper pass between you and the person whose (insert part of a body) is frictioning with your skin. Also make sure that you get to breathe in the exhaling of an obnoxious burly man who smokes coupled in with his wonderful non-deodoranted armpits (because he’s holding on to the railing above your head).
5. Squeeze your way out of that train so that you get to get off where you want to.
6. Once on the ground, ensure that you have to walk at least a good 20 minutes to your workplace.
P.S. This is where the importance of your shoes and laptop comes in. They help add to the amount of calories that you can lose. And pain too, of course. No pain, no gain.
7. To make this more effective, try to do this when it’s raining heavily. As you conveniently left your umbrella at home to dry (because you used it the night before), you would have to perform this entire work(out) in the rain.

As an added bonus:
Make sure that you have a senior who is kind enough to have you running around the workplace gathering documents, so you get even more gains from this exercise.

Results:
Bruised feet (including every single toe and peeled skin at the back of feet)
Strained hand muscles
Acne-populated skin (due to the high degrees of stress and lack of sleep and hydration)
Weight loss*

Try it out! I can’t guarantee that it works, but you would have the satisfaction of saying “I tried it, but it didn’t work!” then you have a great new topic to be discussing when you and your boy/girlfriend run out of things to talk about.

Have a pleasant day!
