Everyone has their trouble spots when it comes to weight loss. We all have areas on our body that we love and areas on our body that we hate. If you have trouble with your belly you may wonder what can be done to lose the stomach fat.

You know that it is just not possible to spot reduce. What that means is that you can’t just lose weight in certain areas of your body, you have to lose weight everywhere. For that reason you will have to focus on overall body weight reduction to get the body you have always dreamed of.

Even though you can’t spot reduce, you will still lose more weight in some areas than in others for the simple reason that you have more fat in some areas than others. Your body will burn fat first, then muscle, so as long as you still have excess fat deposits and you cut your daily calorie intake you will lose weight.

So if you want to lose the stomach fat but you don’t need to lose weight in your hips or butt, all you need to do is eat fewer calories and the excess weight will come off.

Another thing that can help the appearance of your belly is exercise. A lot of women wrongly think that if they do too many exercises it will just make areas of their body half look bigger because they will ‘bulk up’. In reality women just aren’t made that way. In order to get really big you’d have to workout on a full time basis, eat only 100% nutritious foods (no cheating) and probably get some pharmaceutical help. It takes quite a lot for a woman to bulk up.

If you target all your major muscle groups what will happen is that you will look toned. When your muscles are toned you will look smaller since your body will be tighter. Think of your muscles kind of like a girdle. Building your muscles will allow you to naturally hold everything in more easily and that will give you an all over appearance of being smaller which will make it look like you have lost more weight than you really have.

To get the best results you should watch what you eat, make sure you drink plenty of water everyday to stay hydrated and to keep your body clear of toxins, and do some muscle building exercises.

One great and easy to do exercise for your belly is to do crunches. You don’t need any special equipment and it is easy to learn how to do them. All you have to do is lay on your back on the floor, bend the knees to protect your lower back then put your hands lightly behind your head and looking straight at the ceiling slowly move up and down. Breathe out as you come up.

It’s easy to lose the stomach fat, just eat right and exercise. And, oh yeah, you’ll also lose weight everywhere else too!

Ok, so, today is the day you start losing weight. You did your research and figured out how to lose weight naturally and you are really motivated to start putting what you learned into practice. Everything is lined up and ready all you have to do now is just pull the trigger and get busy.

It isn’t going to be easy and it isn’t going to happen overnight but just like with anything else worth having, it will be quite the journey with a wonderful prize when all is said and done. That prize? A brand new fit and trim you. Just imagine all the new clothes you will be able to buy and how good you will look. You will probably kick yourself that you didn’t do this a lot sooner.

When you learned how to lose weight naturally one of the first things you learned was you were going to need to make some lifestyle changes. No more pop or overly processed foods. You are going to have to learn how to cook for yourself with all natural ingredients and drink a lot of water. Half of your body weight in ounces of water everyday.

Did you go out and buy a good cookbook? You should, a cookbook could give you some great ideas in case you get bored with what you are eating anytime along the way. Just remember, cookbooks are mainly suggestions and if the recipes call for ingredients that are not a part of your overall diet plan then just omit them or substitute something else that you can have. For instance, instead of real eggs, use an egg substitute.

You probably also learned to track everything that goes in your mouth and to write it down in a journal. This is the easiest way to see where you can make the changes you need to make and where you trouble spots are in your day. You need to create a calorie deficit throughout the week in order to lose the weight you want. You need to take in less or burn off 3500 calories in one week to lose one pound of fat.

Journal your activity as well to see improvements in strengthening, the length of your work outs, and the intensity of your work outs. You can easily measure the intensity of your work outs by following this rule: During an easy work out you should be able to carry on a conversation without being short of breath; a moderate work out lets you carry on a conversation while being short of breath; and an intense work out will not let you carry on a conversation at all.

Every six weeks or so you should redo your plan if things are getting boring or if you have hit a plateau. One small change could get you right back on track so just keep plugging away at how to lose weight naturally and soon you will be right where you want to be.
