Power Tips To Lose Belly Fat

Here’s a way to start losing belly fat fast: move more. Sounds simple, right?

Then why don’t people do it?

It’s not hard. Go walk to the end of your driveway and back a couple times. Then bump it up to around the block. Walk around your house more. Just get up. The more activity you do, the more you’ll want to do. There is no reason for overweight people to use the scooter at the store.

To be fair, this guy might actually need it...

Also, just because you are moving about more, don’t think you can eat more. Walking to McDonalds is not exercise.

One thing you can try is walking your dog. Dogs need to move too. There is no reason to be fat if you have a dog. Really, if nothing else, do it for your puppy! And if you don’t have one, maybe you could use a fuzzy companion in your life?

Even walking around a store or mall is good. Just think of it: shopping and losing weight. Of course, that could get expensive.

And here’s a little trivia to sweeten the deal: the more you weigh, the more you’ll burn. When you see that walking only burns 100 calories an hour, that may depress you.

But that’s for a skinny twig person.

Some one looking to shed some weight will burn more. The more you weigh, the more you burn. It’s almost a ratio. So if you weigh 350+ pounds, you may burn 500 calories doing some walking. And once you get moving, you’ll be ready to change your life into a healthy one.

Today we celebrate those who were able to overcome the social stigma of being fat. These are people who did not care about losing weight fast, they got famous instead. While there are still no Peyton Mannings here, todays fat person contributed to the world in a slightly different manner than our last one.

Number 2- Siddhartha Guatama (the Buddha)

Buddha - Kinda like Jesus, but fat.

Famous For- Founding Buddhism. What have you done lately?

Ol’ Siddhartha here was originally a prince. A really spoiled one. His father built him three seasonal palaces and the guy didn’t visit his people until he was 29. Of course, once he saw a sick guy dying in the street (as peasants are wont to do) he decided shit was f—ed up and became a hermit. As part of his hermitage, he lived on one leaf or one nut per day. Think about that on your next diet. Needless to say, he passed out while bathing one day and said “Wow, I am really hungry. Maybe this isn’t the way to bliss.” Then, judging from his statue, he ate a small pony. Hunger satisfied, and his stomach full to bursting, he realized “Life is suffering” which became the first tenet of his new religion. Kind of how I feel after Thanksgiving dinner. The suffering part anyway.

Was it the fat?- Of course. It was only after he got fat that he discovered the foundations of his religion. If he was skinny, he’d just be another cultist.

There you have it. Our second famous fat person is Buddha. And while you may not be able to use your girth to found a new religion, maybe you could if you lost the weight. You never know. Stranger things have happened.

Don't drink the Kool-Aid!!

It is amazing what people will believe. People who are normally quite sane will instantly become a babbling moron in the face of a new way to lose weight easier. This topic has been covered before here, but I think it’s time to address a few more. I look at the top results on Google and I am shocked by what I see people falling for.

Number 1-Drink the right type of water! And according to this author, the right type of water is BEV- Bio-Electric Vincent. It will help you lose belly fat fast!

Wait, Vincent?

What the hell is that? I have a cousin named Vincent…

She goes on to say if Vincent water is unavailable, drink reverse osmosis filtered water. I live in an area where that’s the only type of water available. Trust me, it’s not helping people lose weight.

"Thank God I drank all that reverse osmosis water!"

She said it will pull the toxins out of your body. Here’s a quick tip: Toxins aren’t why your fat. And all water helps to drain waste from your body. It’s called urine.

Drinking water is a given on a diet. A real water tip would be to drink ice water. Your body burns calories warming it up in your stomach. Not many, but they add up.

Number 2- Cut out the Cheese! No, its not a flatulence joke. The author says cheese acts like a gummy substance in your intestines, clogging up your intestines. Look how stretchy and gooey it is on pizza!

Really? Cheese is why people are fat?

Clogging my intestines? How do people pay this woman for weight loss advice?

“Oooh, I want to lose this belly fat fast. I better stop eating cheese!”

Good news fat people of Wisconsin! We may know the problem...

While cheese can lead to constipation, that’s no reason to cut it from your diet. Bananas can bind you up too. Cheese is packed with nutrients your body needs. If blockage is a problem, you’re probably not getting enough fiber. Have more salads. With cheese.

There are a LOT of bad weight loss tips out there. Make sure that you find a smart and sensible plan to help you lose weight. And use a little common sense. There is no miracle pill, only time and dedication.

Being fat is generally a pain in the…well, lower back obviously. Normally being fat is not a good way to do anything, much less become famous. But some people have not only overcome the weighty downsides of being weighty, but actually prospered. In fact, some people probably would not have been famous if they had been skinny. So while there are no Peyton Manning’s here, there are some really funny fat people.

Number 1- John Goodman

Also in C.H.U.D.!

Famous For- The popular TV show Roseanne, as Dan Conner.

While I could never stand Roseanne herself, I tuned in regularly to watch John Goodman.  Whether he’s King Ralph or Big Mac in Blues Brothers 2000 he always delivers the funny while looking like he’s about to deliver twins. His first big break was in 1986′s mockumentary True Stories where he delivered the line “I’m 6’3″ and maintain a consistent panda bear shape.” This pretty much sums up all of John Goodman’s roles forever after.

Recently-John was recently in the Princess and the Frog and has several movies coming out this year, plus he stars as Paul Bunyan next year.

Is it the Fat? Probably. While the man is hysterically funny and an excellent actor, it just wouldn’t be the same if he was skinny and 5’10″. How funny would it be if Walter Sobchak was telling Donny to shut up, and you thought Steve Buscemi actually stood a fair chance in beating his ass for it? I didn’t think so.

So this weekend, after the gym of course, sit down and revisit a classic John Goodman flick like Arachnophobia and help laugh the weight off. Of course, it’s not likely we will get famous being fat, so thank God there’s help for the rest of us.

Today, lets look at a novel way to lose weight. The Nintendo Wii.

AKA Gym in a Box

With software like Wii Fit, or Wii Resort you can use your gaming console to help you lose weight. Kind of counter intuitive isn’t it?

Wii Fit is the core game, and comes with a balance board for added levels of motion based control. Plus, it works with you no matter what your starting weight.  With all the available games for fitness on the Wii, there are plenty of options to help you lose that stubborn belly fat.

The program has options to chart and measure your weight loss. Another plus is the whole family can be involved. And the family that plays together, loses weight together.

And the downside to a Wii weight loss plan? Well, there are two.

One: Cost. A Wii console is about $200 brand new. Plus Wii Fit with the balance board: another $100. Extra games are $50 a pop and throw in a few extra controllers and we’re around $400 altogether. That’s a good chunk of change.

Two: While the Wii can be a useful tool, it only works if you use it. This applies to anything really, even gym memberships can languish, but it seems the novelty could wear off the Wii after a few weeks.

However, if you already have a Wii for gaming, hey, buy Wii Fit.  It will get you to move more than you do now, and that’s always a plus. And even if you don’t have a Wii, this could be the perfect excuse to get one.

But if $400 seems a little pricey, check this out. It’s cheaper and probably more effective than a video game system at weight loss. And that’s the real name of the game: to lose belly fat fast.

Trying to lose belly fat fast? Trying to lose weight?

Already have a plan? And most importantly, is there a support group attached?

So if you answered YES to all these ques….

Wait, you don’t have a support group? Uh-oh…

The truth is, you need a support group. You had a support group while you gained the weight.

Or as you remember it, McDonalds.

Humans are social creatures. We thrive in groups.

And without support, the average person is going to struggle to overcome a lifetimes worth of bad dietary habits alone. Most women can’t go to the bathroom alone. How do they plan to change their lives by themselves?

This is why plans such as Weight-Watchers and Jenny Craig work.

They provide an encouraging framework to lose weight. This provides the psychological aspect of weight loss.

Everyone needs encouragement, and if you are really working hard to lose weight, you deserve a weekly pat on the back.

Hell, you deserve one now!

Not to mention that in a group environment where everyone is working to the same goal, it will encourage competition. And nothing is more encouraging than a little competition.

The problem is people who are really overweight are embarrassed to go because they are fat.

What can you do?

Well, this is the internet age. No more do I need to stand in front of my portly peers and declare my nominal losses for the week.

Instead, I can log in to my support group and , with the anonymity of the internet, I can proudly post the newest milestone in my quest for weight loss.

So what are you waiting for!

Go make some weight loss buddies on line.

Go to the store and buy one!

You want a six-pack? Want to know the quickest way to get it?

No, I know, you want the six-pack abs.
Well, here’s the facts. Unless you are already in good shape, don’t worry about a six pack.

Concentrate on all over weight loss. You will never see a six pack on anyone with fat thighs.

Hell, I know guys that can run marathons with no ab definition at all.

Does this mean its impossible?

NO! Take that Peyton Manning!

Manning Ab Advice

BUT it is going to take some dedication and hard work. So if you feel you’re ready for it, carry on.

The two main things you need to do for great abs are to lose belly fat and build more ab muscle. If you’re still reading this, you should already be eating a low fat, high protein diet.  So the key here is exercises for that six pack.

Good Luck!

Crunches- The standard in ab exercises. Replaced the full sit -up in the early 90′s to the relief of overweight gym students everywhere. While boring and uninspiring, they are proven, and if you do A LOT everyday, you will get a six pack eventually. A good tip: hold a free weight to your chest for extra resistance. And do a lot of them.

Cardio- This is to help with the last bit of fat on your belly. For a real six pack, it needs to all be gone. Any cardio will work, but the most effective is something full body. Playing basketball or racquetball everyday is great. So is surfing. There is also the elliptical if you have to stay in a gym.

All of the Rest- Yes, I’m lumping together all other exercises for your abs. They all amount to the same thing. Do more with your abs. Bend over more. Use the ab machine at the gym. When you’re picking things up, bend at the waist, not the knees.

Obviously, don’t try to lift heavy things that way, it will kill your back.

And remember, if you’re not quite where you want to be with getting that six-pack, don’t give up! It takes time.

Also, if you need a little more help than I can provide here check this out.

This guy followed these tips to lose belly fat for 2 years!

Here are some of the funniest and weirdest tips gathered from the online fitness world that are supposed to help you lose your belly fat. These tips may not make you lose any fat, but will definitely make you exercise your belly – laughing!

Ridiculous Tip #1

Beer is filled with sugars that turn in your body into empty calories which deplete your body from nutrients and enzyme burning fat. Beer calories are the ones that convert into stubborn belly fat, the ones that like to hang around for a while or may be until the end.

Instead of beer ask your bartender to make you fresh lemonade: a juice of a fresh lemon, ice cubes, and seltzer water. After a week, you should start losing stomach fat.

Is this person serious? “What you’re drinking tonight?” “Ahh… just a lemonade, please”. Like that would totally replace a beer!

Ridiculous belly fat #2

Soft drinks

Instead of soft drink, drink filtered mineral water. It should take about two weeks after you stop drinking soft drinks to see a belly fat reduction.

Yeah, sure – if you drink 2 bottles of coke a day, you should stop. DUH! But people looking to lose fat already know they’re not supposed to drink soda – is that really worth blogging about? Silly tip..

Ridiculous Statement #3

The author of these wonderful tips explains how to get in the best shape:

I did not exercise to lose it, I did so much sport in my teens that I hate it now. I do holistic nutrition consulting

Apparently, holistic nutrition consulting consumes 900 kcal/hour – because you have to put your brain to work so hard to come up with all this NONSENSE tips

Funny how people will say anything on the internet. Hopefully, you wont fall for these “tips”.
