How to Lose the Belly Fat Fast

[ad#ad]
When most people are overweight or obese they seem to carry the most fat weight around the abdominal stomach area, and of course this gives us that apple or pear shaped look so coincidentally the main issue is losing that belly fat. Belly fat is usually the easiest to put on, but the hardest to get rid of - here is how to lose the belly fat.

 

For the purpose of this article, I am going to focus on nutrition, as it really is 90% of the challenge to lose the belly fat. Get it wrong and you’ll make it mission impossible. Here are the fundamentals of nutrition for a smooth stomach.

Try this for 21 days!

The Rules: Eat 5 healthy balanced meals per day, 2 - 3 hours apart. Drink 2 glass of water with each meal. Don’t eat anything for 1 -2 hours before going to bed or performing any exercise.

For breakfast - have a bowl of oatmeal with semi-skim milk and one piece of fruit. The oatmeal contains healthy slow release carbs which will help you feel fuller and give you longer lasting energy. The milk contains low fat protein essential for muscle cell repair after your exercise routine.

Mid morning - snack on 1 low fat natural yogurt (which is lowest in sugar) and another piece of fruit. The fruit will contain vitamins and minerals to aid your bodies recovery and yogurt contains protein to help burn the fat faster.

Lunch - A palm sized lean protein such as a chicken breast or 2 eggs, with 1 baked, steamed or boiled potato (a yam is better) and a handful of veges. This should fill a plate and make you feel satisfied until your mid after noon snack. The veges will give you the antioxidants to fight the toxins within your body that cause fat.

Mixing a protein with a carb such as a potato will allow the use able proteins to be delivered to your lean muscle faster, therefore increasing your metabolism and burning more fat.

Mid afternoon - snack on a handful of vegetables, and a handful of almonds. Almonds contain a mix of healthy proteins and heart strengthening essential fat acids, which will once again keep you sain until dinner time.

Dinner - Another palm sized piece of lean protein source such as turkey, fish or lean red meat, together with a big salad mixed with 1 tablespoon of olive oil as the dressing base.

Removing the carbs (such as pasta, rice, potatoes, etc.) from dinner, when you’ll be needing it the least will allow the body to start burning the fat instead. The olive oil will once again boost your essential fatty acid intake and help reach your recommended daily calorie intake for the day.

Follow this meal plan structure and you will be sporting that flat stomach in no time. This meal plan alone should help you shed the fat, but if you want to accelerate results ad consistent exercise, anything as long as it gets your heart pumping and you’re sweating.

Don’t ever neglect your nutrition however as eating enough of the right foods will allow you to lose the belly fat faster.
