How can i lose weight in my mid section?

Answer 1

Attempting to reduce fat in just one part of your body at a time is likely to be disappointing.

Fat reduction works like this: When you try to lose fat, the reduction occurs all throughout your body. Unlike muscle-building, it cannot be specifically targeted to one region. Also, the reduction in fat will not be quickly apparent because it will not be focused on only one spot on your body. So it's helpful to have a "slowly but surely" attitude.

Note that exercises mostly serve to tone the muscle underneath the fat. But if you want to slim down, the fat has to be burned off. For that, the main thing is to ditch the junk food and the sweetened drinks. Exercise alone might not be sufficient.

Here's a program for the period in which you want to lose weight:

Plenty of moderate aerobic exercise, no sweetened liquids at all, and no junk food at all. Preferably no sugar, and as little added salt and processed foods as possible. Eat 3 small-portioned meals/day; do not skip breakfast; and avoid snacks. Limit your calories (better to consult a doctor or nutritionist concerning the amount), and weigh yourself 2-3 times/week. Ignore the sensation of hunger. If you see your weight diminishing at a safe, reasonable rate (1-2 pounds/week), keep it up.

Once you've reached your target weight, increase your calorie intake somewhat. And you can then have small amounts of sweetened foods or junk food on occasion (if at all), along with your regular foods (not instead of them). But keep checking your weight 2-3 times/week.

Avoid crash diets, diet pills etc. Avoid fatty cuts of meat. Walk as much as possible. Bicycling and swimming are good too.

More guidelines:

Don't concentrate on specific foods so much as on a balanced, healthy diet plus exercise. Plenty of moderate exercise rather than intense exercise, which can damage your joints.

Good nutrition means eating what your body needs, while ingesting as few harmful things as possible. It has also been described as getting enough of each of the major food categories (grains, fruits, vegetables, protein, dairy, etc.; plus plenty of water).

This will vary somewhat from one person to another; and I don't believe that there's any universal diet that can be prescribed for everyone. Avoid best-sellers with their perennial fad diets. And think twice before using any dietary supplements or weight-loss pills.

In general, one's starting point can be a menu of whole grains, whole-wheat bread, a good amount of vegetables, some fruits and nuts, fish, lean meats (in not-large amounts), and some dairy. However, this must be tweaked according to one's health, weight and other factors at the outset; and also adjusted over time, as one sees what works for him/her in particular.

Answer 2

There are no exercises that target specific areas. But if you exercise vigorously every day for an hour, and not eat snacks between meals unless they're fruit or vegetable, and if you limit your carbohydrate intake to no more than 1/4 of the food you eat, that tummy paunch will disappear.

You can also do situps to tighten the muscles that the fat clings to. There is also fat on the inside of the tummy, so you will be losing this fat along with the fat tummy you can see -- so it may take longer to lose the tummy than you thought it might.

Do not exceed 3 pounds of weight loss per week.

Answer 3

I have been working hard at losing my fat on my midsection with minimal results (I have actually gained 15 lbs in the work I've done...). I'm somewhat of a gym rat and I'm pretty knowledgeable about what exercises are effective to which part of the body so I tried sit-ups, planks, oblique planks, crunches, 6 inches', hanging sit-ups, yet nothing is giving me results I desire. I feel my core getting stronger and stronger, but no fat is being visibly shed. I not only want to lose the fat for my girlfriend, but for myself as well. I think it would be nice to be able to fully appreciate my body as well as my strength for once. I've been going at this for almost nearly a year now and I'm still determined to get the look I want, I'm just a little stuck. Any professional help would be greatly appreciated and any success stories are certainly welcome. Thanks.
