How to Lose Gut Fat
Losing gut fat takes hard work and diligent behavior. For certain body types, fat accumulates around the mid-section. Many people are sensitive about their "gut." While some believe doing ab exercises will get rid of belly fat, that is simply not the case. What good are well-defined ab muscles if they are hidden under layers of fat? Instead, try a regimen of both diet and exercise, and stick to it to make the fat disappear.

1
Begin by eating six small meals a day -- no more than 350 calories per meal. By spacing them a couple of hours apart, you can keep your metabolism working all day, therefore burning more calories. Do this for one week.

2
Eat five small meals a day during week two. Cutting out one whole meal will eliminate 350 calories a day, or 2,450 calories a week. This will help keep your metabolism going, cutting out calories at the same time.

3
Exercise each and every day, with a minimum of 30 minutes of cardio. Ideally, you will want to do 60 to 90 minutes of cardio daily. You may have to work up to this, though. Keep in mind, the exercise doesn't have to be done all at once. You can work out for an hour in the morning, and a half hour in the afternoon.

4
Cut carbs and starches from your diet, and add plenty of vegetables. Learn about hidden carbs and sugars in some fruits, such as bananas. Try eating berries instead.
-
5
Work up to at least 100 ab crunches a day. Again, these don't have to be all at once -- try breaking them up into two to three sessions. The important thing is to get them done.
