Carrying extra fat around your belly is not only unattractive–it's unhealthy. Excess fat in this area puts you at greater risk for heart troubles and diabetes, among other things. To gain control of your abdominal area, you must lose the fat. Follow these steps to start your way to a healthier you.

Difficulty: Moderately Easy
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • Strength training
  • Aerobic activity
  1. Step 1

    Eat the right kind of carbohydrates. This includes whole grains, fruits and vegetables and excludes processed sugars.

  2. Step 2

    Follow a well-balanced diet. Include all the food groups, focus on natural products and stay away from processed food as much as possible.

  3. Step 3

    Train your body with strength training activities. Adding muscle tone will help you perform all daily activities as well.

  4. Step 4

    Walk or do other more vigorous cardio activities at least five days a week for twenty to thirty minutes. Heart health will also benefit from cardiovascular training as an added bonus!

  5. Step 5

    Lose weight. This may seem obvious and following the other steps will assist you with this, but after losing the belly fat, you must continue losing weight to maintain your healthy body.

Tips & Warnings
  • Get help where you need it. Join a weight loss program or gym if that works for you, or enlist the help of a friend or family member.
  • Remember losing the inches is the first part of the battle. You have to maintain that loss in order to remain healthy.
