The job of coaches is to help ordinary people lose weight and achieve success in sports. Nevertheless, many consider trainers to be upstarts turned on proper nutrition and the gym, so a whole project was launched in the USA to break this stereotype.

Unfortunately, working with a personal trainer often turns into demotivation and problems for those who want to lose weight. Let’s be honest: getting close to the shape of a person whose job is to constantly play sports is almost impossible. In addition, some coaches do not realize the seriousness of their influence on clients. They give them excessive loads and criticize – in general, they do everything as opposed to achieving the goal. 

Drew Manning, a professional fitness trainer from the USA, has long noticed this sad trend. After talking with his clients, he realized that people simply do not believe that coaches can go through the same hell that awaits them. Then the man decided to recover almost 35 kg himself and try to quickly lose them. Manning succeeded: then he created the Fit to Fat to Fit project, where, under his supervision, other trainers first actively gain weight and then lose weight in a duet with their clients. 

One of the brightest participants in the competition was coach Adonis Hill. For four months, the young man consumed 6-7 thousand calories a day and gained 30 kg to support the client, Alice. In the end, it took the plump coach and his ward another four months to return to normal weight: Adonis lost 25 kg, and Alice – 26. Together they trained hard and followed a healthy diet – and this proved difficult not only for Alice but for the athlete himself, who has lost the habit of such loads. 

However, Adonis is very glad that such an experience happened in his life. And although the doctors insisted that he stop this experiment, undermining his health, the American compares his work to the act of a firefighter “who runs into the fire to save a person.” 

The Duchess of Cambridge is famous for her natural beauty and prefers not to change anything in her appearance. We are used to seeing her with long brown hair styled in neat curls, light make-up with emphasis on her eyes, and a drop of gloss on her lips. 

And if she decided to experiment with the image and change something in her image? We thought for a while and did it for her. See what Kate Middleton would look like if she was blonde with blue eyes.

We did a little work on Kate’s photo in the photo editor and were pleasantly surprised by the result. The Duchess really suits blonde hair. Moreover, wheaten blonde with light highlights visually refreshes the face and makes Kate younger. Against the background of light curls, the blush appeared brighter, and the lips seem more expressive. 

No less harmoniously complemented the appearance of the wife of Prince William’s blue eyes. The image of Middleton turned out to be very gentle, light, and sophisticated. However, we could not decide how the Duchess is better. In our humble opinion, she looks amazing in both cases. 

After childbirth, women often complain of a bulging tummy. One of the reasons may be diastasis. Together with an expert, we discussed all possible ways to get rid of it.

After childbirth, many girls often face a problem with the name diastasis, which is terrible at first glance. We are talking about a flabby and bulging belly, which cannot be removed either by sports or by proper nutrition. What remains to be done in such cases – to forget about the beautiful press forever? VOICE asked this question to a plastic surgeon who convinced us that all is not lost!

What is diastasis?

This is the divergence of the inner edges of the rectus abdominis muscles. It can occur in the third trimester of pregnancy due to an enlarged uterus and persist after childbirth. Among the common causes of diastasis is excess weight or heavy physical exertion. Not only women are at risk, but also weightlifters.

Is it possible to reduce diastasis without surgery?

Women are trying to reduce the belly with the help of diets, massages, and sports. But with diastasis, these methods are ineffective. Reducing calorie intake is relevant in the matter of overall weight loss, but does not affect the position of the muscles.

Isolated ab exercises can only make matters worse by further divergence. Massage and taping give a superficial effect, and after childbirth, they do not guarantee a result at all.

How to fix diastasis with plastic surgery?

Diastasis can only be eliminated surgically if more than a year has passed since birth. Abdominoplasty and mini-abdominoplasty are performed if there is excess skin and deformity of the abdominal wall. The doctor performs muscle plication through a skin incision, and brings them together, forming a sporty silhouette and a thin waist.

When there is no need to correct the skin-fat layer on the abdomen, and the BMI does not exceed 25 units, it is possible to eliminate diastasis and hernia through the umbilical fossa without additional incisions according to the author’s method of the doctor. Endoscopic muscle closure is also possible.

How is recovery after surgery?

After abdominoplasty, the patient needs to take care of the skin tone, and for this, wear compression underwear. Sometimes, to consolidate the result, they resort to hardware techniques.

If only diastasis correction was performed, it is enough to keep yourself in shape with proper nutrition and physical activity. In the first month, you can not lift weights so that there is no relapse.

What happens if you get pregnant after surgery?

Pregnancy after abdominoplasty will not prevent you from having a flat stomach in the future. But to maintain the results of the operation, moderate exercise and proper nutrition are needed. If you keep the weight normal and take care of yourself, re-diastasis can be avoided.

A bulging belly is not a sentence. Today, thanks to the achievements of plastic surgery, this problem is solved in a short time and without risk to health.

Today we know the 74-year-old Hillary Clinton as the iron lady of the United States, who stoically survived the scandal of her husband’s public infidelity and even ran for the presidency. The politician looks according to his character:

a short haircut, strict suits, and discreet make-up. However, in her youth, Hillary was completely different and even had every chance to conquer the modeling industry.

The whole world knows very well what Hillary Clinton looks like now. The American politician, who ran for president in 2016, is one of the most recognizable people in the world today. For the past few decades, the style of the wife of the ex-president of the United States has not changed much: for a long time she has been faithful to her short puffy haircut and strict suits, with the color which she loves to experiment.

However, few people know what Hillary Clinton was like in her youth. We found a photo of Bill Clinton’s wife, taken about 50 years ago, and hardly recognized Hillary in it. Luxurious curls, light make-up, a charming look, a modest dress, and elegant beads… It seems to us that with such a pretty appearance, Hillary could well have become a model in the 1970s!

However, as we know, Clinton chose a very different path for herself. Since childhood, Hillary wanted to become an astronaut, but her dreams of space remained dreams. Clinton made politics her life’s work. In 1973, she graduated from Yale Law School with a J.D. and began her political career.

In 1975, Hillary married Bill Clinton, and five years later they had a daughter, Chelsea. By the way, before marriage, Hillary bore the surname Rodham. Clinton’s main rival Donald Trump made fun of this fact during the presidential race. He noted that Hillary’s maiden name is consonant with the word “rotten” (rotten). Trump suggested that Hillary wanted to get rid of her middle name in order to get rid of the association emerging around it.

Sometimes it’s not wrinkles or gray hair that age us at all, but bad habits that should be abandoned in maturity. Let’s figure out what exactly we’re doing wrong!

All women want to stay young and beautiful as long as possible. But sometimes we ourselves spoil everything and artificially age ourselves. Here are 6 bad habits that make us look older than we really are. Get rid of them today!

You walk with your head down

Only insecure women do this, and in addition, they get a whole load of problems. Because of this bad habit, ugly wrinkles form on the neck and décolleté, which add extra years to us.

You squint often 

This problem can easily be solved by buying sunglasses, or glasses with diopters if you squint due to poor vision. Eternal cunning squinting leads to the formation of “crow’s feet” in the area around the eyes, which instantly makes us older.

You’re always frowning

Nothing ages a woman like an eternally dissatisfied grimace on her face. Smile more – it’s much more pleasant!

you wear long hair

Too long hair also does not color mature women: they just look out of place. After 40 years, it is better to abandon Rapunzel curls and stop at a stylish medium-length haircut. Yes, and care for such hair will be much easier.

You are brightly colored

Leave bright shades in makeup for young girls. In adulthood, catchy makeup only kills natural beauty and emphasizes imperfections.

You rub your eyes and face

This habit will also not lead to anything good, because in this way we only stretch the skin. Therefore, if you want to keep her youth and elasticity, keep your hands away from your face.

The series “Euphoria” was released in 2019 and instantly became a cult and one of the most viewed in the world. At the beginning of 2022, the second season of a story about the difficult but exciting life of American teenagers started. 

Real make-up madness is going on on social networks!– millions of fans are trying to repeat the makeup of their favorite heroines!

We have collected the most interesting make-up techniques from the second season of Euphoria, which is aimed at the main trends of 2022.

Remember how everyone went crazy over ultra-shine cosmetics and painted shiny freckles and glittery tears on their faces? This trend has spawned the series “Euphoria”. This is how the main character of the tape, whose role was played by Zendaya, was painted.

“Euphoria” can be safely put on a par with the most popular and influential series of the 21st century. Yes, overall this is another teen drama with some kinks in regards to sex, partying, and illegal substances. But in “Euphoria” they raised much deeper topics than in similar series of this genre: body positivity, bullying, self-determination, and so on. And there are really a lot of interesting examples of self-expression through clothes and cosmetics!

If the first season of “Euphoria” really shone with the glitter of all colors of the rainbow, the sequel received a softer and more viable outline. The show’s lead makeup artist, Donnie Davy, even called the second season “the introverted sister of the first” – with the same love for sequins and arrows, but a willingness to switch to minimalism. Yes, not delicate and nude, but still minimalism.

We carefully studied Instagram (The social network is recognized as extremist and banned in the Russian Federation) and Donnie, and also watched the latest episodes of Euphoria to highlight the main beauty innovations of the series. Remember these tricks: in 2022 it will be at the peak of trends!

And again rhinestones

Well, how could “Euphoria” do without glitter, which became such a salable product just after the start of the series? True, in the second season, the sparkles in the makeup of the heroines shine more delicately. For example, they are added a little to the arrows. By the way, on the Web, you can already find a lot of lessons on repeating arrows from rhinestones. Be sure to try it – it seems easier to make them than to draw straight arrows with eyeliner

Retro shooters

Speaking of arrows. Beauty bloggers have long been inspired by 1960s and 1970s eyeliner variations, and Euphoria continues this trend.

Long and ultra-thin, double arrows, lines that capture the lower eyelid. Of course, these are not options for a strict dress code. But for a party – that’s it! And don’t forget to add shimmery silver or gold shadows to your eyelids for a truly retro look.

Fantasy makeup

Transgender heroine Hunter Shaffer is one of the brightest characters in Euphoria, and her beauty looks are especially extravagant. While everyone lengthens their eyes with ultra-shooters, she chooses the reverse version with an emphasis on the inner eyelid. Or draws a real extravaganza with ordinary shadows. We especially liked this technique in blue color – it seems that it is quite easy to repeat such an effect, and the result is impressive even from a distance.

Also noteworthy are the graphic eyelashes that are drawn on the upper eyelids of the girl. Don’t be surprised if this simple trick takes over TikTok soon!

In the style of the 1980s

The bright neon shadows of the heroine were actively used in the first season – they remained in the second. Most often, makeup with them is made in one or two colors and captures the entire eyelid. To heighten the effect, you can add eyeliner to match, well, or get by with a classic black liner.

Emphasis on the lower eyelid

It seems that all beauty trends are slowly moving in this direction – the lower eyelid becomes a full-fledged “participant” of makeup! Of course, by no means do we encourage you to apply bright shadows on it or draw complex arrows. In “Euphoria” you can just see soft examples of accents on the lower eyelid – with a small amount of glitter or a dotted study with a liner. Agree, it looks very interesting!

Hair loss is a problem for both men and women. Noticing that the hair falls out, we seek to understand why change our diet and start taking vitamins. But there is another, fairly common reason, the influence of which is often forgotten. 

We tell you why hair falls out and what you can do about it.

The causes of hair loss in men and women can be different: deficiency of vitamins and minerals, the consequences of the disease, for example, include hair loss after coronavirus. But it can also be a symptom of diseases that have not yet been diagnosed. Hair loss is just one of the additional signs that all together indicate a particular disease.

And one of the most common causes of hair loss, if we ignore the genetic factor and problems with a lack of vitamins, is a malfunction of the thyroid gland. In this case, hair problems become an addition to other signs of thyroid problems – severe fatigue, increased irritability, and weight gain. 

The fact is that thyroid hormone are necessary for the development of hair follicles. If the thyroid gland does not work as it should, various problems with hair can occur, including hair loss.

The good news is that this can be dealt with and all changes are reversible. After your hormones return to normal, the c

Have you decided to update your image for Valentine’s Day or are you already planning to become the most fashionable this spring and are just looking for suitable coloring options for yourself? 

Then be sure to pay attention to the shade with the delicious name “tea with milk”, which has already managed to conquer many Instagram users (The social network is recognized as extremist and banned in the Russian Federation)!

Each new season brings us another batch of hot trends that you immediately want to try out for yourself! And if last fall, stylists unanimously advised fashionistas to dye their hair in a shade of sweet toffee, then in the dead of winter they introduced a new trend inspired by a delicious warming drink – we are talking about an unusual hair color called “tea with milk”.

To begin with, let’s make a reservation: do not confuse this type of staining with the now equally popular trend in nail art called “milk bath”! Milk tea is an interesting brown shade of hair that will suit all girls who want to update their image in a very effective way. This interesting cream shade is somewhere on the border between warm and cold. 

Imagine that a drop of milk was added to a mug of hot black tea – somehow your hair will look like after new dyeing. At the same time, “tea with milk”, of course, has a huge number of variations: it can be either lighter and creamier, or mostly brown.

The new type of coloring also has a huge advantage: a delicious “milk tea” shade is quite easy to maintain – even with the growth of roots, your natural color is very beautifully and harmoniously mixed with cream-colored strands! It all looks like you are slowly watching the process of diffusion – only not in a cup of tea, but right on your own hair. Magic and more!

Coloring “tea with milk”, although it looks more interesting and unusual than the same long-familiar honey or caramel shades on the hair, it still belongs to the category of fairly neutral ones. For this reason, girls who rely on naturalness in their image can safely choose it. It also pairs perfectly with almost any skin tone, whether you have fair porcelain skin or a sultry dark-skinned one! 

So how do you get the cherished shade on your hair? It is important to understand here that it is not enough just to tell your master that you want milk tea-colored hair: you and the colorist can simply look at the world differently, including identifying this complex shade in your own way. Therefore, so that the result of staining does not disappoint you, it is better to immediately come to the salon with a photo of exactly the option that you like. So you will not only facilitate the task of the master but also save yourself from unnecessary worries!

Korean idols are the biggest superstars of our time. True, in order to become one of them, young people have to go to great lengths: rehearse numbers for days, undergo plastic surgery, and monitor their weight very, very closely.

Today, members of k-pop groups can rightfully be considered more popular than Adele, Beyoncé, Kanye West, or any other world-class artist. Millions of teenagers go crazy for sweet-voiced and stylish guys and girls and call them idols. They are really inspired by them and try to imitate everything.

Of course, being an idol is very honorable, and many want to be in their place. In addition to television competitions, there are even special training facilities where you can learn the skills required to participate in k-pop groups. But being there is real torture. As, however, the further life of Korean artists.
Exhausting creative pursuits, tough competition, and non-stop training – the most stringent requirements are put forward for future idols because it will only get more difficult.

An important point of all rules is weight. K-pops must weigh no more than 47 kilograms – regardless of height, age and gender. But the growth of some guys from, for example, BTS even reaches 175 centimeters! In extreme cases, a mark of 50 kilos is allowed – but not a gram more.

It is believed that it is at this weight that any suit will sit perfectly on the idol, and his movements can be easily synchronized with other members of the group. But it is for all this that the world loves idols!

In social networks, the unhealthy thinness of K-Popers and the fact that their image is contrary to the laws of body positivity are rarely discussed. Occasionally, some former idols talk about how they went hungry for days and even fainted from exhaustion. But, alas, they could not do anything, once in the cruel world of Korean show business.

It took this woman many years to lose weight to a healthy weight. And no less effort to look good, already being slim. For obese people, losing weight is only part of the transformation process. 

Next, they will have to deal with excess skin, and this is a completely different story.

Puerto Rican Shelley has always been close to the problem of excess weight. From a young age, she either dropped extra pounds, then recovered again, gaining even more. Ultimately, over 10 years of these swings, the mark on the scales approached 200 kilograms, and Shelley realized that it was time for her to resort to drastic measures.

First, the girl did a gastric bypass and immediately decided to radically and forever change the principles of nutrition. Since then, she has followed a vegetarian diet, which helped her forget about diabetes, asthma, and high cholesterol.

It is worth recognizing that after such a complex operation with weight loss, everything did not happen as quickly as we would like. But in the end, after 7 years of healthy eating and regular training, Shelley managed to get rid of 135 kilograms!

And although the Puerto Rican lost weight rather slowly, she could not avoid the appearance of sagging skin. The situation was aggravated by the birth of a child – for some time Shelley could not decide on extreme measures.

Finally, in 2021, Shelley experienced her first facelift and skin removal surgery. Ahead of her is another complex of transforming operations, but the girl is already insanely happy with her new figure. No wonder, because judging by the video from TikTok, before the extra skin greatly prevented Shelly from admiring her reflection in the mirror!
