Eat 5-6 Small Meals Every Day
You may think that skipping a meal will reduce the number of calories you consume in a day, which will help you lose weight. Wrong! Ever notice when you skip a meal, you eat even more the next time you do eat? Eating too much at a time causes your body to take whatever excess food you eat and store it as fat. Eating small meals every 3-4 hours will fire up your metabolism and let your body properly digest everything you eat and use it for energy- instead of storing it as fat.
Properly Chew Your Food
Sounds like common sense, but you'd be surprised. When you don't chew your food properly, it causes the creation of gases in your stomach, which makes you feel bloated.
Drink Something Hot
If you're ever feeling bloated, reach for a hot cup of tea to get rid of that feeling fast. Also drinking anything with Aloe Vera can help reduce bloating.
Watch Your Salt Intake
Consuming too much sodium is never good. It causes your body to retain water and makes your belly and legs feel swollen. Replacing salt with other seasonings such as lemon, tarragon, or anything else you really like can help make your belly feel flat. Also foods like any kind of pork (yes, I'm sorry but this does include bacon), salted or smoked fish, sausage, and aged cheese should be avoided, as these are high in sodium.
Now that you know how to reduce that bloat around your midsection, let's boost that belly fat loss by looking at the top 5 foods to help you burn belly fat:
Eggs
And I mean the whole egg; yolk and all! Eggs are filled with protein, and vitamins and minerals that help your body burn fat. Yes, the yolk does contain most of the fat and calories, but it also contains more than 90% of the protein and other good stuff, so don't cut those out.
Olive, Canola, or Safflower Oils
These good oils contain good fats that your body needs, and they can also ignite your metabolism to help you burn extra calories.
Cinnamon
Not only does it help improve digestion, but it also helps regulate blood sugar, lower cholesterol, and boost metabolism. You can add cinnamon to things you eat (it goes really well with chicken or nuts) or you can buy cinnamon supplements at vitamin stores.
Berries
Blueberries, strawberries, raspberries, you name it; they're all great for your general health as well as fat loss. They're packed with vitamins and minerals, which you already know are good for you. They also contain loads of antioxidants, which helps to get rid of belly fat. And they're a great source of fiber, so they fill you up nicely. Berries are also a great snack if you have a sweet tooth.
Nuts
Almonds, pecans, walnuts, peanuts, and macadamia nuts, as well as any others, contain omega fatty acids that your body needs, and that aid in weight loss. Nuts are also packed with protein and help to keep you full for longer periods of time.
