3 Simple Tips To Lose Belly Fat Fast!

As a nurse I learned if you want to lose belly fat and you're carrying a little or a lot of belly fat around, it's important to lose it, especially for the health of your heart. Studies have shown that people with pear shapes or who are carrying extra pounds around the waist have more incidences of heart attacks than those who don't. Weight loss problems and dieting failures do not help your middle section either.

1. But what you can do is first of all completely understand that you're headed for some serious health problems if you don't lose not only your belly fat but any other excessive fat you might be carrying around. Your body and its health should be a top priority if you plan to be around for a long time and live a healthy quality of life also. Keep this first and utmost goal in mind that you must lose the weight or suffer some serious health consequences. Many people never think about the possibility of chronic diseases such as cancer, diabetes, stroke, heart attack and many others affecting them. Plaque from fatty diets can collect around all the organs, not just the heart and blood vessels.

2. Next start an eating or food diary and start immediately to document what you eat every day down to the last morsel. Make this exact. Look it over after a couple of days or so and see what you can eliminate. Eliminate any food that you are indifferent about. Food that you nibble on or chow down on that you don't care that much about should go first. Immediately stop drinking any soda or diet pops, which really aren't foods and pack a lot of calories. If you can cut down or eliminate meat and dairy products. That may seem hard but they are acidic and have high concentrations of fat and dangerous added hormones, pesticides, herbicide and growth factor in milk. Start eating a ton of veggies and fruits every day - go for a diet that includes a lot of raw or living foods. These will nourish your body, provide you with a lot of nutrients, give you plenty of fiber and natural water and help you lose weight fast. If you drink beer, quit. This is a sure way to develop a beer belly from excessive calories. If you do this you will not need any fad diets, diet pills, expensive weight loss plans or programs. Most are designed to part you with your precious hard-earned cash. Focus on buying fresh fruits and fresh veggies and make huge salads (red-leaf lettuce, green leaf lettuce or romaine, not iceberg lettuce which has few nutrients).

3. Belly fat is resting on top of the abdominal muscles of course. I see many articles claiming that you can lose belly fat by exercising, but this can't be true. You can strengthen your abdominal muscles and this will help BUT you must make an effort to lose weight to get rid of your belly fat. Sit-ups are one of the best approaches to tightening the abdominals. Practice sucking in your stomach to tighten the abdomen throughout the day when you're driving or watching television or anytime.

You can lose your belly fat and experience a lot of other weight loss too. Just get started today. Even one little change is a start in the right direction. Do make one change in your diet and lifestyle today and add one change or more each day for the next week and you should start to see your belly fat disappear. Continue your diet and lifestyle changes to keep the weight off! YOU can do it!
