      Eat Healthy. This sounds very cliche but it is the truth. Eating baked instead of fried foods helps to eliminate fat deposits that accumulate around the stomach and waistline. Stock up on your fruits and veggies. Resist the urge to eat those chili fries that taste so good but are so bad on your waistline. It helps to be consistent with your eating. You don't have to go on a fad diet to maintain a small waistline. The key is to be religious in your diet and nutrition coupled with exercise.
