Weigh loss should always be done gradually and in your case this becomes very important. Reduce your over all weight, you will reduce your belly region too along with appropriate exercise to build muscles in that area and burn fat. Big belly is especially a result of modern sedentary lifestyle and junk diet.
Remember these simple tips to lose weight around your tummy – - Eat small meals at frequent intervals. Avoiding both starving and binging.
- Avoid simple sugars and processed carbohydrates. Choose whole cereals or whole wheat products and avoid white flour and its products as far as possible. Remember cutting down on sugar and refined foods will help a lot to reduce your belly. But remember to keep a hard candy in your pocket and gulp it whenever you feel any symptoms of hypoglycemia. You can also drink a glass of soda or any carbonated drink for instant energy in such situations.
- Keep in mind ‘fat free’ or ‘sugar free’ products do not mean calorie free. Make sure to read the food labels before any food item you consume.
- Consume at least 8-9 servings of fruits and vegetables including 1 green leafy vegetable daily.
- Avoid too much of deep fried, oily or fried foods. Include good proteins in the form of pulses, sprouts, milk, eggs, fish, and lean meats or de skinned chicken.
- Drink sufficient water daily to keep yourself well hydrated.
- Physical activity or exercise is a very important criterion to remain fit. Just a simple brisk walk for 40-45 minutes or stretching exercises for lower body will help. A crunch is also a good exercise to reduce the fat in the tummy region.
