How To Make Easy Money

There are ways to generate income outside the 9-5 grind - get busy in your free time and you could see the pounds rolling in. Moneywise shows you how to make money with our top money making tips.

Austerity measures from the coalition government has meant many people have had to tighten their belts. While sticking to a budget and finding ways to cut back are advisable, with a little imagination and effort you could find there are ways you can actually make money.

Moneywise has come up with 20 ways to make money during austere times - some are easier than others but all of them could see you make some extra cash.

Here are some ideas for you to consider:

1. Website Building

If the internet is a country, then websites are like real estates. I’m hoping by now you have a general understanding that real estates are valuable in the physical world – digital real estates work the same way. By building a website, you’re creating your own plot of online “land.”

You can fill this land with whatever you want, but you have to promote it through social media (and anywhere else you can think of) for this to be successful. When you build traffic to your land, you can sell people whatever you have to offer. In order to build a website, you need a host (i.e GoDaddy), a template (i.e WordPress), and content.

The first two parts are easy to find, and content is only as difficult as you make it. You can post blogs, items for sale, pictures, videos, or whatever you want. Opening up your own website gives you the potential to make money from the avenues I’m going to mention.

2. B2B Marketing

An online business model I love is utilized by GetVoiP, an affiliate marketer based in New York. GetVoiP acts as an agent for business communication providers. They maintain updated listings of VoiP providers, including ratings, comparisons, consumer reviews, in-depth knowledge of market and end-user trends, and expert opinions from business professionals on a variety of topics related to business consumers. By not only keeping abreast of news, but providing detailed analysis of products being offered, GetVoiP is able to generate traffic to their site and increase their clout with businesses.

The more online clout you have as a business, the more money you’ll make. If you’re known for making lasting connections (as is the case with GetVoiP above), then you’ll have no issues building your online brand. You’ll be recognized in your community and begin to build a buzz in your industry. Tracking your numbers (how many people view your site, click each ad, and make a purchase from that click) gives you the leverage to expand this part of your business, enabling you to continue building your online rep.

3. Google Adsense

If that sounds like too much technical information for you, there is an easy button – Google’s advertising platform is as simple as signing up, enabling (on Blogger) or pasting a small code on your website, and allowing the advertisements to automatically roll in. The problem with this program is that you don’t get any commissions – and you don’t get to control the ad content. This is useful for some, but powerful users will want something a little more robust.

4. Be an Agent for a Direct Selling Company

Before the get-rich-quick hype of eBay, there was the get-rich-quick hype of direct selling programs like Avon and Amway. But like selling on eBay, it's hard to become a millionaire selling makeup and cleaning supplies to your neighbors. According to Amway, the average salesperson earns $115 a month selling Amway products [source: Amway]. Of course, like any other kind of selling, the amount of time and energy you put in is going to affect your sales.

Direct sellers use individual salespeople to sell their products instead of using traditional retail. To join Amway, you sign up with one of the company's salespeople (or "independent business owners"). That person then provides you with catalogs and samples. As you make sales, you purchase products atwholesale from your sponsor, and keep the difference between the wholesale and the resale price as profit. You can also earn bonuses and higher sales commissions as you sell more.

Direct selling may sound like a pyramid scheme, an illegal sales operation that makes more money from the wholesale purchases of its so-called "sellers" than it does from actually selling products to customers.

But in 1979, the Federal Trade Commission decided that Amway's business model is legitimate because it doesn't require recruits to pay large up-front membership fees or make large wholesale purchases before being admitted into the program. So if you decide to become a direct seller, only sign up with programs that don't require exorbitant startup fees.

How to Boost Your Facebook Fan Page With 750% Growth?

After months of research, today I’m presenting the Facebook strategy which attracted thousands of Facebook followers. These strategies include only white hat techniques, which I would be sharing in the below article. If you are looking for any automated Facebook script or code, then this article is not for you. I always follow slow and steady procedures to make my life easier and happier. Following this article will open your doors to thousands of Facebook followers in less than a month. Remember that too much of anything is never good for anyone, so proceed with caution. I have successfully grabbed 200,000 Facebook likes on one of my Facebook page (Latest Tips and Tricks). This Facebook page had grabbed a massive growth of 3,385.7% in just 30 days. Now it’s your turn to grab those crazy followers.

Why Facebook Marketing?

With more than billion users, Facebook has become the most popular social media network ever built. Looking at this massive growth, many online marketing companies are spending their daily budgets on Facebook. And these days many of our clients force us to spend the SEO budgets on Facebook, rather than the traditional SEO campaigns. This is acceptable, as the client might want to see immediate engagement from day 1. Compared to the traditional SEO campaigns, Facebook is quite easy to understand for anyone. Most of the times we tend to burn our cash with Facebook ads and other SMM freelancers, but its okay to learn from your mistakes.

What is Facebook Viral Community?

A Facebook Viral community is the most precious asset of your Fanpage. These people will tend to share your content every single time, which allow you to grow massively in less than a month. All you have to do is to hit the right community in right time. You might have come across few popular blogs like Upworthy, Viral Nova and Elite Daily, which exactly follow the same strategy to attract the viral community. The main strategy behind these blogs is to post fresh and viral content. If you observe their Facebook pages and other social media accounts, the majority of focus will be on “Fresh Viral Content”.

So just like Google, even Facebook loves to push fresh content on top. The more the people share your content, the better it will reach out to the Viral community. And for a completely brand new page, it is absolutely possible to engage people with viral content like jokes, pictures and videos.

Assuming that you all know how Facebook works, let’s proceed to make your Facebook page viral in the next 30 days. Usually a typical Facebook admin will engage his fans by posting pictures, news, website links, polls and etc. But very few pages concentrate on uploading a video on their Facebook fan page to attract the viral followers. The main reason behind not uploading the videos on Facebook is Copyright Violation Notification. This warning can ban your account completely, where you will lose control over your existing pages, groups and etc. Don’t worry about this ban, as I bring you one awesome solution to get rid of that too. Keep reading!

How to Reach the Viral Community?

Getting massive likes on Facebook is all about in-depth research, consistency and uniqueness. You might be wondering how is it even possible to get unique content every single time? Well, that is the key! You have to get 100% unique content which was not published anywhere expect your page. You have to target the right audience in right time. Following few simple strategies can make your content go viral within couple of hours.

Even if you have all the above mentioned things in place, the most important thing you need to follow is Geo location and time. You can easily target India, Pakistan, Philippines and other Asian countries if you are in India. But concentrating the viral community in US is the most difficult thing to achieve. Usually the US viral community is less likely to share your content, as the page tend to stick to only routine or more Indian stuff. Try to post some viral stuff which attracts US fans and followers. Initially, the engagement from US will be less compared to India, but once you hit the right spot, it will be a cakewalk.

Your main aim is to get your page viral, so follow the foot prints of other popular pages. Don’t try to steal stuff from them, but instead make your own content via pictures and videos. You need not make your own videos at home, but there are tons of other ways to get them. One obvious source is YouTube and the rest you have to find out. The key factor to steal from other pages is their time frames. Observe when they are posting more content in a day. Try to experiment on the same, which may push your content to the viral community.

How to Choose Your Viral Facebook Titles?

First you need to understand whom to target. Usually men are the majority of users who like and share your content. Targeting men will be a real good opportunity for your Fanpage to go viral. You have to post viral stuff which makes them happy to share. It might be anything from Gadgets, Technology, Viral videos, Jokes or anything else. The key factor in making your page viral is the surprising element present in it. There are many other ways to make your posts engaging. One of the best ways which make people see your content is its keywords.

You can start your post titles with surprising elements like OMG! Wow! WTF! Awesome! Amazing! Unbelievable! Lol! Lmao! ROFL! and etc. But don’t do it for every post, else you might sound a bit spammy. Choose your surprising factors carefully, so that people will engage with more trust and likeability.

According to my research, people tend to click more on OMG! Wow! and Awesome! Also people more likely click titles which contain Viral keyword in them.

Example: Viral Video of the Month or Viral Employee Videos Hits Thousands of Likes in 2 Days.

These titles are more likely to be clicked by your Facebook fans and followers. You can also try using a I, They, We in your titles, but make sure the grammar and tenses are perfect.

Example: I can’t believe that he rejected the most beautiful girl on earth.

Choosing the right titles will always help your content go viral. People want to see something new which they never saw earlier. So a Wow! Factor is always needed to boost your Facebook page. Apart from these surprising elements, also add some emoticons or smilyes to make the post viral. Trust me, people love smileys when they see in your titles or descriptions.

What goes more Viral on Facebook?

People always get confused on what to post more. Pictures or Videos? Well, for me videos were the most viral thing to get thousands of followers. Usually almost all the Facebook pages publish only picture content to engage their followers. But what works more in Facebook is viral video content. People love to watch videos on Facebook, but finding them on time is the most difficult part to manage. 60% of my Fanpage contains only videos, which attracted thousands for followers in just 30 days.

This video changed the complete face of my Facebook page. It was shared more than 2,33,517 times with 53,970 likes and 16,000 comments. Posting videos on Facebook is quite difficult to manage, as they tend to disable your video uploading option within a week. You might have seen tons of pages which post videos on Facebook, but why are you unable to do the same? Well, that’s the trick! You just can’t post videos directly. There are some techniques involved to play safe. Find them below.

How to Post Videos on Facebook without a Ban?

Even though you find the most awesome video on earth, you can’t post directly to engage with your followers. There are some techniques to follow on how to publish videos on Facebook. Just like YouTube, even Facebook has some guidelines for publishing a video.

Though these guidelines are not official, they seem to be working fine for me. So the first and foremost thing to remember is video permissions. You have to contact the right people to ask whether the video can be shared with your community. Write down a mail to the concern media person to seek a permission from the management. Most of the times you won’t get any reply, but its okay to post the videos with little changes. Out of all the techniques on how to upload a video on Facebook, I found few basic steps to play safe on Facebook.

1. Always make sure to download videos from Public forums.
2. Make sure the downloaded videos doesn’t contain any hatred, drug, porn or racism angles while publishing.
3. Change the video name to xyz.mp4 or abc.mp4 or anything where it doesn’t contain the same title when you downloaded. For example, if my video title is, “People are awesome – 2014 edition.mp4″, then change it to “xyz.mp4″ while uploading the video.
4. After uploading the video, make sure the video Title and Description are not same. You should use different content for both these fields.
5. Never use the same Title or Description from where you downloaded the Video. Example: “People are awesome 2013″ can be renamed in title as “Wow! These people are simply awesome!” whereas the description can be “I wonder how some people are so amazing at what they do.”
6. Don’t use relevant hash tags or keywords to tag them in your videos.

What if Facebook has disabled your video upload option?

As mentioned earlier, Facebook doesn’t give you much authority to post continuous videos on your Fan pages. But if you follow the above mentioned guidelines, Facebook will not be able to recognize your video as illegal. Even if you have taken the right permission to upload a video, Facebook will always poke into them as an offense.

Don’t panic if you see the above message. Here Facebook is just trying to act smart by showing that your video is alleged to copyright infringement. I’m not asking you to completely ignore this message when it appears, but try to solve it with patience and trust. Soon after you see the notification from Facebook, make sure to File a Counter Notification immediately. Tell them that your video has the right to be published on Facebook, but not sure about why this issue has been raised.

This notification will be shown only once on your Facebook account, but will be saved on your registered email forever. You can open your gmail (if the account is registered with gmail) and look for the following messaging to “File a Counter Notification”. Facebook will immediately restore your video back on the page, but not every time. You can find the “File a Counter Notification” option in the copyright infringement itself. Take a look at the above screenshot.

I have observed that Facebook will give you only 3 notifications on copyright infringement. So you got only 3 chances to show your viral content to people. Be extremely careful while uploading the videos, else Facebook might permanently ban your account. So what happens after 3 copyright infringement notifications? Well, my account was temporarily blocked for 6 months from post any videos on my Fanpage. But still I’m able to upload video on Facebook! How? Well, that is the secret my friend, can’t disclose everything. Ping me on Facebook if you have the same issues of temporary ban. I will tell you how to recover your account to start posting videos on Facebook.

Where to find the Viral Content?

Finding viral content on Internet is very easy when you do it right. I usually follow 3 simple places to find viral videos on Internet. The first one being Wimp.com, Second one is Break.com and the third one is YouTube. You have to search continuously for better and better video content to post on your Facebook page.

Remember that Facebook takes a serious offense if you have downloaded the video from YouTube and uploaded on their Fan pages. I don’t know the exact reason for this, but don’t try to give Facebook a hint that the video is taken from YouTube at all.

Also you can find some really good videos on tons of Facebook pages. All you have to do is to search for better and better content to upload on your Fan page. You can find some serious content on CNN Videos, but I would suggest you to stay away from them. Always make sure to stay away from News and Media content, as they contain 100% copyright material.

What to do after posting Viral Content?

If you have find some viral content, then don’t wait to upload it on your Fanpage. And as soon as your post your content, start sharing it on your profile and other friends walls who don’t mind you posting viral stuff. You can also tag strangers onto your video, but I would suggest you to stay away from that cheap technique.

You cannot piss off your people to unlike your pages. So don’t make the mistake of tagging unknown people onto your videos. I have found that Facebook is very much okay with videos where were first uploaded on Facebook itself. But never leave a source a bottom. If you write a source a bottom, you are clearly giving a hint to Facebook that you don’t own the content. So why to invite more troubles?

When to Post your Viral Content?

The best time to make your content viral is early evenings. People tend to share a lot of stuff on Monday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday. Post your content after 5pm IST and check the engagement via Facebook Insights. Your page insights can show you a detailed view on when people engaged the maximum. Try to learn some basic analytics on how to play with your data.

I posted almost all the content after 5 PM, which gave me a whooping 200K likes in just 30 days. People tend to share your content every single day when they love your posts. Try to engage them by replying to the comments, inquiring and messages. Don’t hurt anyone with your content or behavior. Maintain a long term relationship with your Fans, so that you can grab the awesome ROI via posts or publicity.

Why do I even need a viral Facebook Fanpage?

You might have heard about Google Panda, Penguin, Hummingbird and other major penalties. All of these updates are made to ruin your online blog business if they lack in quality. Facebook doesn’t have that risk of penalties or traffic drop. Once people like your stuff, they tend to share your blog articles, posts and sometimes promotions.

There are literally hundreds of benefits of having a viral Facebook page. One of my favorite is Fanpage Page rank. Once you have achieved a Page rank of 5, your articles will get more search reach and SERP positions. Sending a backlinks from PR 5 is no joke my dear friend. It might be a nofollow link, but Moz clearly mentioned that Google ranks blog articles and content based on its social engagement, reach and nofollow links.

We worked hard to achieve 200k+ likes and PR 5 for our Fan page. Now its your turn to work hard. Try to post engaging stuff with your Facebook fans. I believe this article will bring you a lot of confidence, boost and knowledge to make your Fan page viral. Do let me know if you need any help. Waiting for your valuable comments. Share the love!

How To Make Cash Online

1. No-risk matched betting

Hands down the quickest way to make a lot of money (well, without breaking the law). Lots of students have genuinely made £100s from this technique. It’s completely legal, risk free, tax free, and anyone can do it.

It works by taking advantage of free bets regularly offered by betting sites (such as PaddyPower.com) through ‘matching’ them at a betting exchange. Matched betting eliminates the risk (you are betting both forand against a certain outcome).

This leaves you being able to squeeze out the free bet, which can be as much as £200! Multiply this by how many betting sites there are and you can quite easily come away with a profit of a few hundred pounds.

Owen walks you through how to make your first £15 profit (using a real life example) in this gem of a guide to matched betting. If you know of any better way to make £30/hr sitting at home, please let us know!

2. Paid for searching the web

Sign up now for free and start earning from your own searches! Click here to start.

3. Sell Stuff On EBay

I just recently made $2145 in one month selling stuff from around the house on Ebay and Craigslist.

You can even sell stuff for friends or family members and split the profits with them.

4. Freebie Trading

A couple years ago I did an interview with a guy who made $28,000 in one year doing this part time. It is work and requires organization skills to do it well, but it is legit.

I tried my hand at it using Project Payday and their training materials to see that it was legit.

Basically companies are willing to pay you to do trial offers for their products. They know that many people who do the trial offer will like their product and continue to be customers, so they are willing to pay people to sign up for trial offers.

So one of the main ways of making money freebie trading is signing up for offers like a Free Netflix trial, emusic.com, applying for a Discover Card, etc. The key to success seems to be having a calendar where you can keep track of when the trial periods end and make sure to cancel before they end.

If you are interested in learning more I definitely recommend Project Payday as they have a ton of training guides (free if you complete a couple offers) that will greatly simplify the process. Oh and they have a A+ rating with the BBB as well.

5. Take Online Surveys

I am not particularly fond of the whole online survey thing since I had a bad experience using CashCrate.

But there are lots of online survey sites and people who do it successfully. Here are a few if you want to investigate it further:

• Swagbucks
• Global Test Market
• InstaGC
• EPoll

I recommend proceeding with caution and definitely not paying anything to join.

6. Raise Money Online

If you are raising money for a community service project or missions, you might want to check out a site like GoFundMe.com. They make it easy for teens to raise money for any type of project. People have used it to raise the money for everything from mission trips to medical bills, weddings and honeymoons, business ventures, and even college tuition.

7. Build Websites For Others

I can’t tell you how many people have asked me to build them a website since I started this one a couple years ago. I am not seeking the work and people are requesting it, so if you do a little legwork and pursue small business owners, there is a lot of work available. Teens might be great for this, because they would be able to work for less than some higher end website developers, which would put them in the price range that it seems many small businesses are looking to spend. Here is a great course to help you get started.

8. Start A Business Doing What You Love

If you have ever wanted to start a business, here is a truly great course to help you get started.  It isn’t free, but I went through it and could not believe how thorough of a step-by-step the course is.  It is packed with very detailed tips, tricks, and suggestions on exactly what you need to do to start a business and start making money.

They are so confident in the success of their students that they guarantee you will make $1,000 from you business in 60 days or they will refund all your money.

It truly is a great course, and I highly recommend if you are wanting to start a business of any kind.

How to Stop Smoking Pot/Weed

If you feel that pot is taking over your life and replacing all of your friends, hobbies, and favorite ways to pass the time, then it's time to quit smoking and get your life back on track. Marijuana may be psychologically addictive, which means that you need to be mentally prepared and willing to give up your habit. So if you're looking for help for getting your old life back and dropping your old habits, you've come to the right place.

Method 1 :

1)  You must have and maintain the desire to quit:  We are all going to face roadblocks and setbacks when we try something new, learning to how to quit smoking marijuana is no different.   The key word here is desire.  You need to know you want to quit so badly that you won’t let anything get in your way.   This was the biggest difference for me between why I thought about quitting and took steps to quit.    Last November I promised myself that I would quit smoking marijuana, as you can see from my previous blog posts,  I made some mistakes along the way, but I always kept trying and kept learning.  I knew I had to keep going, because the alternatives were far worse.   I didn’t want to stay stuck where I was as a dumb stoner, with low self esteem, no ambition, and poor health.

2)  Evaluate your relationships:  If you have been a pot smoker for a long period of time, like I had,  you probably know a lot of people who smoke, and who don’t want you to quit.   Many people have discussed how hard it is to quit because that is all their friends do is smoke and drink.   I had to step away from some friendships that were based on marijuana and nothing else.   For a while, I forced myself to avoid situations where marijuana was around so that I couldn’t be tempted.   Some people were very supportive of my decision, and some tried to sabotage my success and put my down for quitting weed.    I lost some people who I thought were my friends, but a relationship built solely around marijuana smoking is not a true friendship at all.   Update:   I have reconnected with a number of old friends and made some new ones.   I still see a fair number of the people that I used to smoke with.   It’s different, but I enjoy the mental clarity, and good conversations WAY MORE than sitting around stoned in a dark room watching TV.  When you quit weed, you have more money, to do more interesting things!

3) You need a Plan:  Planning is 1/2 the battle.  The other 1/2 is executing the plan!  Once you have the desire to stop smoking marijuana, you need to take that desire and harness it into action!   When I first started quitting, I knew I had the desire, but I was missing the plan.   It took me a couple of months, but I finally found a system that worked for me.     I broke everything down  and discovered a couple secrets that got me over being stuck when I tried to quit in the past.

Before I learned these techniques, my mind was still stuck in “marijuana addict” mode even though I was on the bandwagon and sober. Through some of the techniques on the tape, I could identify the thoughts and feelings that were a part of my “marijuana addict” mode and interrupt and replace them with new ideas! I know that this sounds strange and its hard to explain, but it really did do the trick for me. It’s almost like when you are about to catch a puppy doing something bad, but instead you distract and redirect him to a better activity.

Do you want to successfully quit smoking marijuana?

If you have tried to quit weed before and failed, or you don’t even know where to begin, visit QuitMarijuana.Org to Get “The Quit Marijuana Action Plan”.    The Action Plan is a step-by-step system for quitting weed and getting on with you life.  I highly recommend it.

Method 2: Quit Cold Turkey

This is the harsh way to quit; it’s harder, but quitting cold turkey can be achieved as long as you have the support of your friends and family, and an iron will.

Throw everything out

First thing’s first; flush whatever weed you have down the toilet so that you can’t get to it later. Just make sure it’s impossible to get hold of that weed again, so essentially destroy it. Also, you won’t be able to smoke if you don’t have your lighter, matches, bong, container, and roach clips, so throw them out. Also, think about any triggers you have that may make you think about smoking weed, and either get rid of that, too, or give it to someone for safe keeping. Delete your dealer from your contacts, social media, and your life.

Tell your support system

You’re going to need support, so tell the people you trust the most. Most of them will want the best for you, even fellow smokers who may be thinking about quitting themselves.

Experience withdrawal

Notoriously the worst part about quitting cold turkey, you’re going to experience anxiety, insomnia, decreased appetite, irritability and an increase in body temperature. You’ll have mood swings and times where you’ll just want to give up. The good news is, it’s only temporary. Try to hold onto the reasons why you’re doing this.

Recovery

There are things you can do in order to help your recovery, such as changing your routine, finding other activities to take part in, seeing friends and avoiding any triggers that may awaken your urges. You can do it.

Method 3: Seek professional help

If you can’t manage to quit on your own, your best option is to seek professional help:

•  A doctor or psychiatrist will be able to prescribe you medications that can help you to stop taking marijuana.
• A therapist or group counselling sessions can help you find support by talking through your issues and meeting like-minded people.
• Your final option is in-patient rehab, some of which can be covered by your insurance company.

How to Lose Weight Fast

It's a familiar story: You pledge to honor a daily elliptical routine and count every last calorie. But soon, you're eating cupcakes at the office and grabbing happy hour mojitos, thinking, Oops, diet over.

There is a better way: Swap the all-or-nothing approach for one or two healthy switch-ups in your daily routine. "Doing this can lead to more weight loss than you ever imagined," says Marissa Lippert, RD, author of The Cheater's Diet.

In fact, we talked to readers who knocked off 10, 25, even 60 pounds with some easy tweaks. Borrow their slim-down secrets to transform your body the real-world way.

There are many ways to lose a lot of weight in a short amount of time.

However, most of them require you to be hungry and unsatisfied.

If you don’t have iron willpower, then hunger will cause you to give up on these plans quickly.

The 3-step plan outlined here will:

• Kill your appetite.
• Make you lose weight fast, without being hungry.
• Improve your health at the same time

So choose at least four of the nutritionist- and fitness expert-backed tips that follow, and vow to work them into your schedule for seven days straight. If you feel ambitious, tack on a few more. The more you pick, the more weight you'll lose. If you start now, by this time next week, you'll look and feel way lighter.

Drink Mainly Water

A sports or energy drink, fruit smoothie, or light beer — each serving contains about 100 calories. Yet these beverages don't satisfy you the way 100 calories of food does, so they're a waste. Other liquids may be high in sodium and carbohydrates, which trick your body into retaining water, puffing you out.

Water, on the other hand, has zero calories and carbs and little to no sodium, making it the perfect slim-down drink. And strangely, it actually helps flush out excess water weight as well as jump-starts your metabolism. If it's just too boring, add lemon wedges or mint leaves.

Ban White Bread and Pasta

Cutting out all white grain products — such as white rice, spaghetti, sandwich rolls — will instantly slim you down because the simple carbs in these foods cause bloating, especially around your belly. "Simple carbohydrates wreak havoc on your weight because they're digested very quickly, leaving you hungry and more likely to overeat later," says Jana Klauer, M.D., author of The Park Avenue Nutritionist's Plan.

To go a step further, instead of replacing them with healthier yet still bloat-triggering whole-grain bread products, substitute vegetables for the week. This way, a chicken sandwich becomes chicken salad, and chips and dip turn into carrots and dip. The complex carbs from vegetables are digested more slowly, so you remain full longer. And because veggies are mostly water, they also help flush out excess water weight.

Do Cardio 30 Minutes a Day

Any workout that gets your heart rate up will burn calories. But you'll use more calories if you pick a cardio routine that engages multiple muscles simultaneously, says Wendy Larkin, personal-training manager at Crunch's Polk Street gym, in San Francisco.

Three to consider: spinning, cardio kickboxing, and boot-camp workouts. Half an hour of each torches 200 to 300 calories while toning up your arms, legs, and core so everything appears sleeker and tighter.

You'll burn even more calories per session if your workout incorporates interval training: alternating short bursts of intense cardio with slower activity. Experts aren't sure why it works, but trainers swear by it.

Drink Coffee an Hour Before Working Out

This is the one exception to the stick-to-water-only rule: Just as a coffee run makes your morning at work more productive, a pre-exercise cup of java with a splash of skim milk (about 11 calories) or black (just 5 calories) will energize your workout, explains Dr. Klauer. "You'll burn more calories without realizing you're pushing yourself harder."

Have Nightly You-on-Top Sex

Not that you needed an excuse to hook up with your guy every night, but the fact is, this position is a fat blaster. Being on top means you do the rocking, and the more active you are, the more calories you burn — up to 144 for 30 minutes.

Sex also pumps levels of feel-good neurotransmitters, endorphins, helping you ride out food cravings. Get on top in reverse-cowgirl (i.e., facing away from your guy) to give your thigh and butt muscles an extra push.
