Ladies, does your belly fat make you feel ugly? Guys, is your fat belly making the ladies beat down your door? I didn’t think so either. What if I told you that you can lose belly fat with diet, and look and feel better than ever? Would you take me up on it? When do you want to lose your belly fat, and when do you want to start to make the change?

It’s hard to make changes. No one likes to change. As adults we are set in our ways, and we like it that way. No one likes change because it takes us out of our comfort zone, and forces us to do something different. Some changes in life can really cause a lot of suffering. Maybe you’ve tried to lose your belly fat with diet before and it hasn’t worked? I don’t know what you tried, but let me try and give you a few basics that will really help in your battle of the buldge.

Move!

You have to move your body. Cardio is imperative to fat loss. There is no way to target one specific area of fat on the body. You can do sit ups and crunches until the cows come home, but you will not lose your belly fat. You will get stronger abs, but the fat will still be there. Cardio will move your whole body and get it going to produce heat that will burn fat. 30-45 minutes a day is all you need. Walking is the best way to start cardio training. Walking is very low impact, and it is easily sustainable for 30-45 minutes.

Sorry Charlie, no sugar allowed

Sugar is your enemy. All of the extra sugar in soda, sweet tea and refined carbohydrates are killing your fat loss efforts. Try eating only things made from whole wheat flour. These foods are high in fiber and protein, and will help you burn fat.

How is Fat Loss 4 Idiots any different from all the other diets that have come along? For starters, the creators do not expect you to starve your way thin. There are no counting calories or worrying about fat or protein content. You follow a simple diet plan that has you eating as much as six times per day. Now I know what you are thinking how can eating more result in weight loss? The key is the type of calories and calorie combinations. That may sound like a crazy idea but is it really? The main idea is to reverse what happens on a low calorie diet.

Low Calorie Diet Myth

Low calorie diets never seem to work because the body is created to survive. What that means is anytime you have a massive drop in caloric intake your body’s metabolism will slow down to compensate. For instance if you drop a thousand calories from your diet then your metabolism will drop to only burning that many calories in a day, plus you feel horrible.

Fat Loss 4 Idiots is different because you will not be massively reducing caloric intake you will be changing the type of calories you consume as well as the days you consume them. Keeping your body supplied with all the nutrients it needs to function correctly.

Food Groups

Another popular diet myth is that you can lose weight and keep it off by getting rid of a food group. No carb, no fat, or no protein diets forget one essential thing; the human body requires all these things to operate. When you do away with a food group you are depriving your body of key nutrients, and your body will begin to crave foods with these nutrients.

On the flip side of eliminating one food group are the diets that focus on eating only one thing. Like the cabbage or grapefruit diets that have plagued us all. The same problem applies; you are not giving your body the nutrients it needs to be healthy. Besides these diets, are nearly impossible to stay on, who wants to eat the same things over and over, day in and day out?

Fat Loss 4 Idiots turns dieting on its ear by allowing the dieter to eat from all food groups up to six times per day. The difference in this diet plan is not how much but when you eat what. When you change your eating habits every few days the metabolism scrambled to keep up, burning more calories than normal.

Finally

Will the Fat Loss 4 Idiots work for everyone? It can but there is some user responsibility to adhere to the tenets of the diet. Nothing you go at half way will ever work. That being said this is a sound plan to lose weight. You get to stay healthy and eat plenty while still shedding pounds.
