How to Lose Belly Fat Fast?

f you want to know how to lose belly fat fast and promote healthy weight loss, I wrote this article for you.

I'm confident that if you use the three strategies in this article, you will lose belly fat, experience healthy weight loss, and keep the weight off permanently.

Strategy # 1: Eat no more three times per day

When you eat three times or less per day, you give your body the opportunity to use up the calories consumed, instead of storing them.

It takes an average of 2 to 3 hours for glucose metabolism to complete. Another way of saying that is, it takes 2 to 3 hours for insulin to convert the carbohydrates we eat, to a form the body can use or store.

Eating three times or less per day, ensures that your body spends more time in "energy-utilization" mode, compared to the "energy-storage" mode.

Strategy # 2: Eat a "light breakfast" and a "light dinner"

When we wake up in the morning, our system is already in "energy-utilization" mode - glucagon is converting our stored glycogen to glucose, that the body uses for energy.

The longer you refrain from eating in the morning, the more you force your body to use up its fat reserves. If you choose to eat breakfast, let it be a "light", balanced, high-nutrient, low-glycemic meal.

Similarly, if you choose to eat at night, it should also be a "light", balanced, high-nutrient, low-glycemic meal. You should eat at least 2 hours before going to bed.

Your body uses the least amount of calories when you are asleep; you should eat the least amount of calories at dinner time.

Strategy # 3: Eat your biggest meal at mid-day

Some experts in nutrition, suggests that your biggest meal of the day should be breakfast. Proponents of this idea, believe that eating a huge breakfast increases the body's metabolic rate. But, which metabolic rate are they referring to?

The pancreas secrets insulin when ever we eat. The only metabolism that increases after eating is insulin (storage) metabolism.

There are two main benefits to eating the biggest meal at lunch time instead of in the morning:

As stated before, when we wake up in the morning, our body is already in energy-utilization-mode (glucagon). The body is using up its stored energy; eating anything will cause a shift to energy storage mode (insulin). A very, effective way to burn abdominal fat is to delay eating in the morning. If you exercise before eating in the morning, your body will transform into a "fat burner".

We are generally most physically active between lunch time and dinner time. Eating most of our calories when we are most active, is a sure way to burn belly fat and achieve healthy weight loss.

Start using the above strategies to create the fit, healthy body you want. By eating three or less meals per day, you're forcing your body to use up the calories consumed that day instead of storing them. If you feel the need to eat between meals, have a hot, unsweetened drink.
