The Truth About Belly Fat: Tips for a Flatter Stomach

The Truth About Belly Fat: Tips for a Flatter Stomach

You've got news concerning belly fat, "Belly fat is the first kind of fat you tend to lose when you lose weight," says Michael Jensen, MD, a Mayo Clinic endocrinology specialist and obesity researcher. "Visceral fat, the kind tucked deep inside your waistline, is more metabolically active and easier to lose than subcutaneous fat under the skin, especially if you have plenty of it," explains Penn State researcher Penny Kris-Etherton, PhD, RD

Thus you can now be sure that your efforts will pay for you. You have to remember to:
- Avoid sugar, its your biggest enemy
- Avoid salt as it may block your satiety feeling
- Avoid hydrogenated oil, Canola oil, Margarine and substituted butter

Eat real butter, whole eggs, coconut oil, olive oil, vegetables and fruits.

Calorie Shifting for Long Lasting Weight Loss

Calorie shifting is the continuous changing of calorie food source (carbohydrates and protein), and their amount over a period of time. It is planned to force the body to increase production of of fat burning hormones and decrease production of fat storing hormones. Coupled with walking, calorie shifting even increases production of fat burning hormones.

The advantages of this system is that you will eat the way you like without avoiding a complete category of food. The main advantage is that your body can not slow down its metabolism as occurs with different diets.

The system works over weeks and not 3, 5, or 7 days, since it is aimed at maintaining weight loss. It is the easy way to start losing fat for long periods of time.

3 Mistakes when Buying a Diet Plan Online

Deciding to lose weight, and you search for a diet plan to buy online? Before going anywhere, read this article first.

Do not start searching before you define the goal of your diet. If you start searching blindly, you will be excited by will written messages, telling you that you will lose specified amount of pounds in the next, month, week, or 3 days! but what then?

You suffer the impact of your extra weight on your health and on your shape. You should know that gaining excess weight is a mark that your metabolism and your life style are on different tracks.

To prevent a wrong message that may penetrate your subconscious, you should avoid these mistakes:



1- Not recognizing the principles of weight loss

The classic view of calories is a bit changed now to consider source of calories rather than their number, in other words "not all calories are created equal". The balance of calories-in and calories-out is still applicable, but calories from food that builds muscles is different from calories
from food that help store fat.

The source of calories effect is obvious when the metabolism is changed, for example; in the growth stage the source of calories does not matter that much, since all the body activities are directed to building, but when growth has stoped, there is no gross building and any extra energy is stored as fat, and among the factors that facilitate this process are food types.

You have to change your eating habits to cope with your new metabolism pattern. To lose any excess deposited fat, you should change types of food you eat without restrictions of its amount.


2- Not Knowing how to maintain your optimal Weight

Be assured that any diet plan will shed pounds of your weight, the first days or weeks you use them. There are many ways to do that. Nevertheless, the problem which faces dieters is the maintenance of the acquired weight.

Most of the diet programs adopt strange ways to force your body to lose weight. They either starve your body, ban whole categories of food, introduce foreign materials that affect your metabolism, or put your body on an unsatisfying style of tasteless foods, or strenuous exercise, or both.

Your diet plan should let you eat your favorite way keeping you full and satisfied. It may discriminate some foods but should not restrict your whole life.


3- Not Sneaking Your Diet Plan

A diet designer should let you taste how his plan looks like. He should have been brought you something new as a new diet, and you should know what is this new diet about.

Testimonials are not enough because as said earlier, every diet plan will reduce weight for sometime. You should ensure that the concept will cause a permanent weight loss. An audio-visual support is better, but at least you should know something from inside the program.
