These are the steps in getting ride of belly fat.

Belly fat is an excessive fat in the abdomen and

tight clothes and causes embarrassment. In fact,
it’s difficult to lose flab from the belly region.

idea and may result in several harmful side-
effects. The healthy way to trim down your
tummy is to use natural home remedies.

Causes of Belly Fat

For number1 remedy, is it that one has to squeeze the juice from a lemon fruit?

Also, most people day that lemon isn't good for males as it can affect their potency. Is there an alternative for lemon in this combination?

Thanks in advance

Junk food

Consumption of carbohydrates in large amount


Consumption of more calories

Intake of heavy food and then, go to bed

Genetics

Lack of physical activity in daily routine

Sedentary lifestyle

Nairaland GeneralGreat Nation By Timi Dakolo by funkyprof(op): 5:58pm On Oct 01, 2014
Happy Independence Day Everyone!!!

Today is Independence day but from time to time, I am tempted to ask "is there anything really to celebrate?"

- Our youths are lost and hungry with no jobs
- The rate of insecurity in the country is appalling
- The rate of bribery and corruption is nothing to write home about
- Our roads and infrastructure is in disrepair
and I can go on and on and on.

I do not think that this is the Nigeria our fathers fought to build when we gained independence in 1960. Even Ghana our next door neighbour has overtaken Nigeria in development.

When I listen to the song Great Nation by Timi Dakolo, I am filled with hope that things will get better.

- That our youths will no longer be fighting to go aboard because there will be too many job opportunities to keep everybody happy,
- That Nigeria will wake from been the sleeping giant of Africa to being the action giant of Africa
- That our politicians will put the interest and welfare of the people of Nigeria before their own selfish interests
and again, I can go on and on and on.

While hoping and praying for that day to come, I leave you all with this powerful video by Timi Dakolo. May Nigeria rise up from her slumber to be the great nation she's destined to be.... Amen!!!

RomanceRe: So In Love With A Nigerian Guy... by funkyprof: 5:30pm On Dec 10, 2013
@Nigerianlover, Merhaba!

With regards to pple in the forum being cruel on this forum, don’t let it get to u. It’s kinda of like a Nigerian thing. Some will tease, some will be kind but u’ve got to have a thick skin and laugh off the teasing and the hating. Don’t take it to heart.

In regards to ur current problem with the 9ja guy, I’ve checked out ur pic & see u’ve got an A in statistics, so physically u are on point. I understand ur guy’s point about being having being in some bad relationships in the past. Since u’ve already told him how u feel, u could try giving him some space as mentioned by others. Let him get to miss ur presence and he shud come around.

On ur own part, u could try learning how to prepare some Nigerian food. Nigerian men luv their food like the saying goes “the way to a man heart is thru his stomach”. There’s something sexy about a fine ass chick u can cook wonders. And when she is a foreigner & can cook wonders, it turns the sexiness up a notch. It can even stir him towards considering u for marriage. We usually reward abundantly in bed after a good meal …lol . Talk about unleashing the dragon shocked. Just keep it real, be urself around him & I wish u good luck. cool

Jobs/VacanciesRe: Do Online Job Applications Ever Work? by funkyprof: 3:22am On Oct 11, 2013
@imperiouxx, I don't know how well LinkedIn works in Nigeria but I will give it a try. The annoying thing is that companies keep asking for experience, if graduates are not being employed in jobs or internships, where will the experience come from?

Some go as far as listing 24-26yrs as a requirement in their job description and using age as a requirement in employment is discrimination. In standard HR practice, you do not need to put your age, religion, state of origin or even marital status in an application as it is a basis for bias but in Nigeria, everything goes. And as ASUU is almost always on strike, how do companies actually believe that students will graduate at the age of 24-26? Except you are schooling in a private university or abroad which is not subject to ASUU strike.

Truth be told, companies are been unrealistic in their job descriptions and requirements. Most are unwilling to train employees and even when you end up training yourself with certifications, most are reluctant to offer anything other than peanuts.

May God help us all.

Please I am intending to do a certification course in IT so as to improve my job prospects as I am also an IT graduate. My problem is knowing which computer training centers offer quality training and certifications as they all promise to be well certified and professionals but I fear that some of them are just there to collect money without leaving you any better at the end of the program than when you first came in at the start of the program.

I will really appreciate your opinions on the best 3 computer training centers in Lagos that give value for money and their locations as I have heard that some branches of such centers teach far better than their counterparts. Thanks in advance
