3 Ways To Eliminate Belly Fat

By Clayton Thomas

You are dead wrong if you think there is no easy way to lose weight! I am going to tell you about 3 weight loss methods that are both easy and natural. But I am not going to ask you to diet! This article discloses 3 common sense methods that will dramatically increase weight loss!

1. Breakfast is under rated: Breakfast is the meal that decides how you feel for the rest of the day! If your body is low on fuel from a poor breakfast, then obviously you will feel sluggish for much of your day. Also, after not eating for 9 or 10 hours after you wake up, you need to refuel you body properly!

This is the main reason why breakfast is the most important meal of the day. Most people will eat a small breakfast (most of the time too small!), a medium sized lunch and a large dinner. If you eat this way you will make losing weight incredibly hard on yourself.

In order to lose weight fast, you need to reverse your eating methods. This means you should have a large breakfast, your breakfast should be the largest meal of the day, and your dinner should be the smallest one! Just think about the concept, if you have a large dinner, you will usually go to sleep soon after. Naturally, your body won't be able to burn all those extra calories. It will instead store them as fat deposits because your activity levels are at zero when you are sleeping!

If you reserve the largest meal of your day for breakfast, your body will have the entire day to break down the calories, sorting out what it needs and what it doesnt need. This means that you will stop weight gain in its tracks!

2. Sugar and weight gain: Sugar may taste good, but sometimes too much of a good thing is bad. As is the case with sugar, which is easily converted into fat by your body. Sugar can give you a jolt of energy, but it will also cause cravings, which will inevitably cause you to eat more, and furthermore, gain weight.

The more sugar you eat, the stronger the cravings become, the more weight you gain, and the less happy you are. Rather than sugar, you should eat potatoes, rice, natural fruits and vegetables, bread, and pasta, all of which produce good glucose.

3. Drink plenty of water: Drinking water is essential for weight loss and for an overall healthy body! You can drink as much water as you want and you wont gain weight. Instead, you will burn fat by boosting your metabolism! If you have ever woken up in the morning feeling tired and, well, unable to wake up, it is possible that you are dehydrated.

To put it bluntly, the human body needs water to survive, maintain, and heal. If you don't drink enough water, your body will store any water you do drink instead of flushing it out. This leads to increased weight gain, or water weight, which is not very appeasing when looking in the mirror! - 16004
