Pro-Tip: If you want to melt fat like butter melts on a hot frying pan, then try to remember that “Abs are made in the kitchen” when you want to eat something from that pantry or conference room when you are done with your lunch. Wait 20 minutes, make yourself some hot herbal mint tea and get out of the kitchen. Trying moving onto my Mise en exercise and your hunger will be quickly forgotten.
