Many of us dream about having six pack abs with ripped muscles and no belly fat. A fabulous waistline is a goal worth striving for. You will look sexier and all your friends will envy you for your ripped abs. The opposite sex will be mesmerized by your alluring physique. If you decide that a fatless belly is a goal worth fighting for I will tell you how to lose belly fat fast:
The Lose Belly Fat Fast Diet
The first thing you have to do is go on a belly fat burning diet. Initially this diet was created especially to help men lose stomach fat fast. But it has been adapted and now it is an universal diet that both men and women can follow. This belly fat blasting diet is guaranteed to show you results in 6 weeks. You will be amazed of the results you will get.
The key to this diet is eating 12 fat burning foods. These foods are rich in muscle building nutrients and fat burning substances. The diet contains foods like almonds or other nuts, beans, vegetables, spinach, dairies, oat flakes, whole grain bread, eggs, turkey or chicken meat, peanut butter, virgin olive oil and berries.
The frequency of your meals is very important. You have to eat 6 times a day at fixed intervals. It is very important that you create a meal schedule and that you stick to it. Also your meals have to be smaller. Smaller meals but frequent will stimulate your metabolism to burn more fats. Because your body knows it is going to get all the food it needs it will start burning the excess fats instead of packing them on. Another benefit of eating small meals frequently is that you never overeat.
During this fat burning diet you aren’t required to count any calories. Counting calories always drives me mad. Forget all the dieting rules you know and just follow this diet. The results will get noticed soon.
Here are some belly fat blasting dieting rules you should obey:
-reduce the amount of fatty foods or high cholesterol foods that you eat
-use virgin olive oil in your cooking
-stop eating fried foods, especially deep fried foods.
-stop eating fast food and junk food
-reduce the amount of butter and margarine that you eat
-increase the amount of proteins that you eat daily
-eat fresh fruits, vegetables and lots of salads
-eat your food slowly, chewing very well every bite
-eat foods containing lots of fibers to make you feel full faster and keep hunger away for longer periods of time.
-after 6pm reduce the amount of carbohydrates that you eat. Avoid eating potatoes, rice, pastas, bread…
-don’t use mayo or any other fatty sauces on your food
-eat 6 times a day instead of 2-3 super big meals
-never skip breakfast
-so you don’t go crazy allow yourself to have a dieting day off once a week. Suring that day you can indulge any craving but with moderation.
I know that dieting isn’t a pleasant thing to do but the results are well worth the effort. Always keep in mind what you are struggling for and your dieting efforts will become more easy and pleasant. Picture yourself with perfect abs and get all the motivation you need.
Here is an example menu you can use and adapt as needed:
For breakfast you can eat:
– two pieces of toasted whole grain bread with peanut butter and yogurt or
-milk or yogurt with whole grain cereals(oat especially). The whole grain cereals shouldn’t contain dried fruits or any sugar.
A light healthy snack:
-25 grams of almonds, peanuts or nay nuts you like or
-5 oat biscuits or
-1 boiled egg or
-berries or
-a whole grain sandwich with turkey and lettuce
For lunch you can eat:
-grilled or steamed turkey or chicken meat with green beans or
-roasted meat with a spinach salad containing virgin olive oil or
-spinach with rice and a boiled egg
Another light healthy snack: just as the one mentioned above.
For supper you can eat:
-a spinach salad with virgin olive oil or
-a boiled egg or
– whole grain bread with peanut butter or
-oat biscuits or
-oat flakes with yogurt or milk with berries or
-a fruit salad.
A light healthy snack: it should be half the size of the snacks you have eaten during the day. If you can don’t eat it or just nibble a little food.
Your figure is underlined by your waistline. That is why it is important to have great looking abs. Unfortunately just keeping a diet won’t cut it when it comes to blasting belly fat away. You will have to exercise too.
Exercising is a must if you want to get rid of belly fat
The diet will help you lose the stubborn belly fat but you have to work out your abdominal muscles to make your abs look ripped. Exercising is a must when tackling the belly fat. By exercising you help your body burn more fat. Also by exercising your abdominal muscles you will achieve a fabulous looking abdomen. It is a win-win situation.
If you want to burn the belly fat you will have to reduce all the fat quantities from your body. You cannot only burn the belly fat. Spot reduction is a widely spread fitness myth. As any myth it isn’t true. You will have to work out all your muscles to achieve a six pack ab. Muscles help your body burn fat. The bigger is your muscle mass the more fat you will burn. Simple.
A super simple workout tip that most people don’t know and use is the following: if you want to burn more fat faster you should do the anaerobic exercises first and then the aerobic exercises. By doing the anaerobic exercises first you burn all the sugars form your body. When you start doing aerobic exercises, which are famous for their fat melting capabilities, your body will have to start burning the fat because there is no sugar in it to burn. This way you maximize the results you will get form working out.
When you start any workout remember to warn-up by doing some light stretching. This way you will avoid possible painful injuries. Always warm-up.

“if you want to burn more fat faster you should do the anaerobic exercises first and then the aerobic exercises”
. As with all good workout plans and diets, they should be implemented as a life style. Also they take time for proper results to show, but you’ll get there
.
So true. But this is not only good for just loosing weight, it is also great for gaining more muscle mass faster. Since you have energy when you start, do the anaerobic exercise first (after a proper worm up of course) so that you burn all the sugar in your body. This way you can lift more for better results. After you finish the anaerobic set of exercises, do aerobic exercise. I like to use the gym bike for at least 30 minutes to finish off my workout. keep in mind that aerobic exercise means that you pick one difficulty level and use that for all 30 minutes. Make sure your heart rate is in between 125 and 155 bpm and that you have a regular breathing rhythm. This forces your body to burn fats as a source of energy. If you push yourself to hard, the body will burn muscle instead

If you could do some form of exercise in the morning before your first meal would also help to remove belly fat faster. Also remember to drink plenty of water, at least 8-8oz glasses of water a day.

iam 45years old female with some nerve damage so its very hard to do some excercise but i really want to lose this weight its so hard when you stay in pain all the time please help me.

Being in constant pain sucks. And if exercising is causing you pain you should base your weight loss plan more on dieting. But be sure you use a healthy diet to lose weight, not an unhealthy one.
As for exercising, do whatever form of physical activity doesn’t hurt. If you can walk, walk for 1 hour a day. Do what exercises you can and get good eating habits. It will take a while to lose the extra weight, but once it is off you should never gain it again. Your lifestyle will already be a lot more healthy.

Very great tips! I was wondering does orange juice really turn to sugar when you drink it? I seen this on a neither site, I love oj and hope it is not true
February 22, 2011 at 10:00 am
Orange juice contains fructose, which is a kind of sugar. Fructose is found in all fruits. The sweeter the fruit the more fructose it has. Some say fructose is really bad for weight loss, and from the books I have read fructose seems to stop weight loss if not make you gain weight.
When it comes to orange juice, I have recently read in a book that orange juice has the fastest influence on blood sugar. About 40 minutes after you drink it you will see a spike in your blood sugar, and raised blood sugar levels are never a good sign for people who want to lose weight.
August 15, 2011 at 10:44 pm
This diet info is different from the shedyourweight.com diet, ie;fruit, whole grains…any feedback on this. Do some fruits not contain fructose, like berries or apples? The plan says no whole grains, are some ok?
Thx Brig
