You can burn tummy fat quickly when you stick to the right diet. But what diet is 'the right diet'?
This is what the right diet is not:
So what is the right diet? The right diet is a diet that stresses:
This is what the right diet is not:
- It is not a starvation diet. If you starve yourself you will only lower your metabolism and store more fat.
- It is not an extreme diet. Anything that is extreme is unhealthy, such as no fat, or no carbs, or only ice cream! Some diets have induction periods - these should not last more than 7 days - which usually serve to shock your system and jump start your metabolism. But any diet that tells you to heavily restrict any food group should be suspect to being unhealthy.

- The diet must contain at least 75% of foods that you enjoy eating. If it does not, chances are you will not stay on the diet for long. You will come up with too many reasons to alter the diet and eventually stop. So why even start a diet with foods you can't stand - you are just setting yourself up for failure.
- The diet must contains menus that you are able to prepare. I've tried a lot of good diets only to fail because I don't have the time/energy to shop for special ingredients and then come home and cook the menus. Like most of us, there is only a small amount of time allocated for actual cooking.
