Ways to Lose Your Stomach Fat

First off, let me clear the air by definitely stating that you cannot target "problem areas" on your body through exercising. That's right, you cannot spot reduce "excess weight" off your middle by only doing midsection exercises! When you exercise you kick start an overall weight loss of your whole body, meaning that you will lose excess weight evenly over your entire body, over time.

So how do you go about removing unsightly stomach fat and love handles over time? Here are 5 enhancers that will aid your overall weight loss:

1) Exercise (yes you will have to exercise!). Do 30 to 45 minutes of aerobic exercise for 3 to 4 times a week. Combine this with strength training to enhance your muscles, which in turn will further aid your automatic fat loss (Follow the link at the bottom to see why)
2) Determine your optimal calorie intake for your body's goal weight. That way you will know how much calories you are supposed to consume per day, e.g. 2000 calories per day, while you currently may consume 3500.
3) Food consumption. Avoid processed foods at all costs! Go for green, leafy, fresh vegetables and lots of fruit. Minimize excess animal fat intake and steer clear from hydrogenated fats and oils (read the labels!). Look out for food with the Heart Foundation's emblem on them. (HOT TIP: Do NOT go shopping on an empty stomach! You will buy some junk food to stem the hunger pangs.)
4) WATER. Do not forget to drink your 8 glasses of water. Set yourself a goal to drink one tall glass before eating any food.
5) Meal spacing. Eat something at least every 2 hours - make it 6 smaller meals per day, instead of only 3 large ones. Do not wait till you are completely hungry before eating something again ... listen to your body, it will 'tell' you when to eat the next meal.


If you start to concentrate on these 5 "weight loss enhancers" you will see results in due time!        http://bit.ly/1w9dw4G
