Slow and Steady Wins the Race
Losing belly fat isn’t a speedy race to the finish; it is a slow steady progression that takes a lot of hard work. Fat cells do not disappear unless surgically removed, but it is not necessary to go to those extremes since you can shrink fat cells.
In order to be successful with losing belly fat one needs to get committed, make a plan, and stick to it. In order to lose belly fat one most likely needs to lose weight in general areas such as the belly.
- The first step in figuring out a plan to follow on this journey to lose belly fat is to figure out your Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR) which is how many calories your body needs just to survive. Next figure out how many calories per day you burn through exercise and other daily activities. Now add the two together and that is the number of calories need each day to maintain your current weight. Next figure out your goal weight and weight loss goal along with when you would like to reach this goal, remember that healthy weight loss is 2 pounds a week. Calculate the number of calories which you need to cut out daily in order to reach your goals. A great way to do these calculations is using the tools at http://www. caloriesperhour.com instead of trying to do all the math and calculations yourself.
- The second step in figuring out a plan to follow on your journey to lose belly fat is to decide on what to eat and when. There are a huge number of ideas on the ratios of carbs to protein to fat that one should eat to lose belly fat and fat in general. Most people find that a plan which follows between 35 and 50% of high fiber carbohydrates, 20 and 45% lean proteins, and 20 and 30% healthy fats works well and is easy to follow. Yes, those are broad ranges but allowing flexibility will aid in being able to stick with a program. Some people find that following a vegan diet is especially beneficial in the fight to lose belly fat.
- The third step in figuring out a plan to follow on this journey to lose belly fat is to figure out the exercise portion of your plan. Keep in mind the calories that you said you would expend on a daily basis when exercising. Remember to do both cardio and strength training. Strong lean muscles help to burn fat!
Don’t worry too much if you slip up. Be prepared to change your plan to better meet your needs. The first plan might not be best, but plan B will be better and give you better results, and plan C will be even more perfect for you. Keep adapting and changing to meet your goals and get the healthiest body possible for you.
