5 Doctor's Approved Tips To Keep The Belly Fat Off This Year by amakeepfit: 10:27am On Jan 17, 2018
Make sure you read this to the end, or have yourself to blame..... so lazy readers Keep Off!

We all start each new year with the best intentions.

In January, we pledge that this will be the year we hit the gym five times a week, lose those last 10 pounds, rock our slim, sexy body in few months to come or any other hard-to-stick-to resolution.

But, life gets in the way of these dreams or goals, and by the time we get to December... Oops.., we start wondering what happened during the past 11 months and how we can manage to bounce back.



SO, Here’s the thing...

Drastic resolutions are often hard to stick to because we’re naturally resistant to change. So while throwing our entire lives into upheaval may work for a few days, it’s unlikely that we’ll be able to stick to it for an extended period of time—which is usually what it takes in order to reach real health and fitness goals.

So instead of making massive, sweeping changes that are unsustainable, I suggest taking it bit-by-bit. And if one of your goals for this coming year is to get in shape and finally melt away your belly fat, then it’s time to make some slow and steady lifestyle changes.

Here are five tips that I recommend to help you lose belly fat once and for all so that in 2019 you will not have THIS resolution in your list again!

1. Start the day with apple cider vinegar
Apple cider vinegar has numerous benefits and is a staple in my home. Not only is it useful for personal and home care, but it’s also a fantastic tool when you’re trying to fight belly fat. That’s because ACV helps reduce and stabilize blood sugar levels, and having unbalanced blood sugar levels creates unnecessary stress on the body, which can lead to weight gain.

The acetic acid found in apple cider vinegar has also been shown to improve metabolism, which can speed up weight loss overall. And if you have any gut or digestive issues, like acid reflux or even bloating, apple cider vinegar can help with that as well. I recommend drinking a serving of my secret detox drink first thing in the morning, and up to twice more during the day if preferred.

2. Try burst training
Thinking you have to spend hours at the gym is what discourages many people from working out at all. But in reality, one of the most effective ways to exercise is to engage in burst training, or high-intensity interval training (HIIT). With burst training, you work at about 90-100 percent of your heart rate for short periods, and then follow those bursts of high-intensity activity with shorter periods of recovery.

This practice has been proven to be one of the best ways to burn overall fat and improve your athletic performance and endurance. Best of all, you don’t need equipment or much space to do burst training. You can incorporate burst training at home, or anywhere.



3. Practice Adequate Eating Method
I know it may seem like a counterproductive measure, but it isn’t. Eating is important when you’re trying to reduce your weight, including trying to lose your stubborn belly fat. Breakfast is extremely important when you’re dieting. Many people will skip breakfast in an effort to lose weight, but that’s one of the worst things you can do. It has been proven that eating about an hour after you wake up can keep your insulin levels steadier and aid in keeping your weight steadier. You don’t want to eat a whole pig and a dozen eggs, but eating a breakfast that is high in fiber and protein can really boost your body metabolism and help you burn fat.

Foods like eggs, fresh fruits/vegetables, or peanut butter are better for you than the more sugary things such as breakfast cereals, pancakes, or pastries.

It is also better to eat four to five small meals a day than eat one or two large ones. This way you keep the signal to your body that is going to get fuel. If you don’t, or if you eat at irregular times and in irregular amounts, your body won’t know it is going to constantly get fuel. It thinks it has to store that fat for future energy use. Usually where does it store it…right around the mid-section (Your Belly!). You defeat the purpose of trying to lose belly fat if you don’t eat breakfast.

4. Supplement with prebiotics/probiotics
When your gut isn’t happy, the rest of your health suffers, and it’s easy to pack on the pounds (or struggle to lose the ones that are already there). Our guts are made up of bacteria, and in order to function properly, we want the right ratio—about 85 percent “good/neutral” bacteria to 15 percent “bad.” And when this balance is out of whack, it can lead to increased inflammation, stomach aches, bad skin and more.

Getting enough probiotics is essential for maintaining a healthy gut microbiome because they are the good guys that help us digest our food, keep bloating at bay, support the immune system, and generally keep our guts running smoothly. And you can find probiotics in fermented foods like yogurt, traditional buttermilk, some types of cheese and so on. Prebiotics, on the other hand, are the foods that feed the probiotics and ensure that they thrive and keep the bad bacteria in check. Some sources of prebiotics include raw, local honey; raw asparagus and onions. So be sure to incorporate both prebiotics and probiotics into your diet no matter your goal!

5. Focus on stress reduction
One of the worst things for your weight-loss efforts is stress. Some stress is good, of course, like when you need to hit a deadline. But chronic stress ­can cause havoc on your weight-loss efforts and overall health.

Stress raises the level of cortisol in your body, and this hormone literally stores fat in your belly. If you’re always stressed, you might find yourself bloating more often than usual, or you may notice that digestive issues, like IBS, are starting to flare up. Reducing stress through activities like yoga, meditating, talking with a professional or journaling can really help, and you’ll notice the effects both mentally and physically. Additionally, there are some foods that cause stress that you might want to consider eliminating as well.

I wish you a healthy and happy 2018! With these 5 doctor's approved tips, you’re sure to make significant progress towards your weight-loss goals.

WARNING

In as much, that these proven methods works like crazy in helping you achieve your ideal body weight and lose some fats in your midsection... going about it in a wrong manner or mindset might cause more harm than good to you.

The truth is.... when it comes to losing fats from the body, you can't do it all alone without the guidance of a doctor or nutritionist or weight loss expert that is highly specialized in helping people to lose weight.

INFACT, don’t just go and start using the strategies I explained in this article. Before you start using it, you need to learn THE BASICS on how to lose weight and keep it off permanently.

And that is where my eBook comes in it. In it, I revealed some untold secrets on what to do and what not to do when trying to lose belly fat or body weight in general.
The best part is that you will do all this without starving yourself or engaging in any back-breaking exercises or looking for costly weight loss supplement to purchase.

To order for the eBook today; view my profile and you will see two numbers to contact - one is a number you can send a watsapp message to and the other is another you can call or send email address(if you wish).

But, If you too like free things or maybe you don't have little cash to afford the eBook now....don't worry, I have you guys in mind...I also have a book I can give you freely, just to help your ministry,lol. Just, view my profile and you will see two numbers to contact - one is a number you can send a watsapp message to and the other is another you can call or send email address(if you wish). but make sure you include "interested in the free book"

But a wise man once said.......Nothing of Great Quality Comes FREE! there is always a price to pay


See you on the inside...

PS: Don't crush on my little Winnie(dog) on my whataspp DP,lol....
