Dress Down, Slim Down


To burn kilojoules at work, take the stairs, not the lift, or hang up the phone and walk to your colleague’s office.

Great advice, but when you’re in an uncomfortable suit and tie or toe-crunching high heels, taking even one extra step can feel like climbing Everest.

Dress less restrictively and you’re more likely to move. There is a study indicates that the workers wore jeans or cotton shirts and comfortable shoes, they took about 500 more steps and burned more kilojoules than on dressier days.

Most of people add up to one kilo a year; dressing down daily could prevent this weight gain.
