WHAT TO DO
The ski squat exercise is a great strengthener and toner for lower legs and calves, and lifts the bottom, says Nadya Fairweather of u-shape.co.uk.
Stand with your feet hip-width apart, cross your arms and hold your tummy in. Lower into a squat or imagine you are sitting on a low chair. Stick your bottom out. See if you can lift your big toes off the floor with each squat.
Return to standing. Repeat five to ten times, holding for 30 seconds on the last one.

WHAT TO EAT
Foods that contain medium- chain triglycerides (MCTs) — saturated fats that can help the body burn calories and improve metabolism — are easier on the digestive system.
MCTs are processed directly by the liver and have the ability to positively alter the body’s metabolic rate.
Coconut oil is the best natural MCT food source, but you can also find them in full-fat unpasteurised cheese, including parmesan, and organic, unsalted butter
They are also burned by the body for energy — instead of being stored as fat.
