Exercise is one of the best ways in order to lose your belly weight. Exercises, particularly cardio exercises, can burn your calories faster as compared to abdominal exercises.

Aerobic exercise (cardio exercise) like walking on treadmill or simply walking on track, can help you to burn your abdominal fat faster than any other exercise. Studies has proved that when you walk at brisk pace for around 30 minutes, it can burn about 100 – 300 of calories (depending on your weight).

2. Don’t consume too much Alcohol

Studies suggests that drinking too much alcohol can likely gain your belly fat. Although alcohol have few benefits, but when you consume more than necessary it can become a poison for your health

Alcohol causes weight gain as it gives you surplus calories, which lastly increase your fat by redistributing it in your body. Moreover, alcohol weakens your burning capacity of fat and it makes you feel more hungry.

Lastly, will you gain weight by consuming alcohol or not also depends on the time when you are drinking and how much are you drinking everyday.

3. Avoid food that contain too much Unhealthy Fat

When you eat foods which contain more fat and less protein and fiber, it leads you towards more belly fat as it contains excessive calories.

So, when you consume more fat in your body, you are indirectly consuming more calories in your body and if you don’t burn these calories it may increase your belly fat.

In conclusion, there’s one request to all of you; whenever you consume foods or beverages, have a look at its nutrients that how much fat that food have. If you take 1500 to 2000 of calories daily you have to consume 40-70 gram of fat.

4. Implement a diet plan which contain rich Protein and Soluble Fiber

High protein diet makes you satisfied with your food, increase your metabolism, and it leads you towards low calorie consumption. However, when you follow a diet plan which has low proportion of protein, it’ll make you feel hungry and increase your belly fat.

Fibers, especially soluble, can help you to loose your weight. Although fibers are difficult to digest, this soluble fibers get transform into bacteria which aids by burning the unnecessary calories, so convert some calories into energy.

5. Consume less Carbs

Even though carbohydrate is an essential nutrient which we need daily, it may increase your belly weight when you consume high amount of carbs. When you consume 1500 of calories in a day you have to take 300 grams of carbs a day. But when you are willing to lose your weight, the carbs consumption amount should become more than half, i.e,50 – 100 grams.

However, research shows that it’s not necessary to follow a low carbs diet plan. All you have to do is don’t eat foods which contain refined carbs because such carbs not only increase your belly fat but also causes many other health problems. Rather than consuming refined carbs, it’s always better to eat whole carbs because they are unprocessed and contain the fibers which are found naturally in the foods.

6. Cut back on Sugary Foods and Beverages

Cutting out on sugary foods items can prevent you from gaining weight. Such beverages have high calories which make you feel more hungry when you start eating them more frequently.

Apart from fruit juice, other sugary drinks like Energy drink, Coca-Cola, Sprite, Maaza etc are not healthier. These drinks contains huge amount of sugar and few other unhealthy content which leads you towards a stubborn belly fat.

8. Reduce your Stress level

Stress? How stress can increase out weight? This question might be roaming into your head. But this is the truth.

Once you come outside from that problem, your blood sugar drops quickly and here cortisol play its role by replenishing your energy supply and as a repercussion of this you feel more hungry and choose wrong food to consume which eventually increase your abdominal fat.
