Having a fat belly like the one in the picture above is not only ugly, but it’s also very unhealthy. In fact, it’s the most dangerous kind of body fat you can have. It’s been linked to diabetes, heart disease and many other health worries.

The trouble is, you don’t have to be as fat as the man in the picture above to be at risk.  If your waist measurement is more than 35 inches, you’re in the ‘at risk’ category.

However, the news is not all bad. With the following tips, you’ll be on the road to a healthier future in no time. You’ll also be ready to break out your bikini or speedos in time for next summer!

1) Drink more water

Now everyone knows that water is good for us, but it’s also an effective weight-loss tool. When you’re out and about, carry a bottle of water with you so that you won’t be tempted to reach for soda or a sugar laden fruit drink when you’re thirsty. Water is also vital for burning calories fast. If you’re dehydrated, your body will struggle to keep up the fat burning process.

As well as this, drinking a glass of water before each meal can make you feel less hungry. It will fill up your stomach, triggering your bodies ‘fullness’ signals. You’ll eat less and feel more satisfied after consuming fewer calories.

2) Develop healthier sleeping habits

Belly fat has been linked to stress and poor sleep habits. If you’ve tried a calorie controlled diet and still aren’t seeing results, this may be down to your lifestyle. When you’re up late at night, your body is triggered to produce more ghrelin, a hunger stimulating peptide that’ll have you reaching for snacks that you really don’t need. Try to get seven hours of sleep a night to lose belly fat more effectively.

3) Drink Green Tea

Green tea is a powerful weight loss secret for people trying to lose belly fat. Recent studies have shown that green tea enriched with catechins (a group of antioxidants) can have a dramatic impact on the body’s fat burning abilities. This can be particularly effective if you drink a cup of green tea just after a meal. (See Herbs that help with weight loss for more ideas) 

4) Try short bursts of activity

Short bursts of intense cardio activity, such as running, swimming, etc. (See Aerobic Exercise for alternative activities) when done alongside core exercises can increase the loss of belly fat weight. Interval training is ideal, as core exercises will tone your abs while cardio activity will eliminate fat beneath the surface.

5) Eat five small meals a day

Swapping five smaller meals for the normal three large meals a day, will help you stay full for longer and avoid the usual snacking that takes place.

Keep these 5 tips in mind to lose belly fat fast and get the body you want.
