You can look forward to giving more hugs during the holiday season than the last four months. Until now only your close friends knew that you were carrying. But during the month of December the world will learn your secret. You resemble Santa even though you are wearing your regular clothes. Your fat is hidden until this hugging starts. After you stop binging in January 2012, you won’t have an excuse for your big stomach.
Worry doesn’t make it go away. Most credible weight loss studies involving thousands of people from all around the world have conclusive results regarding how to lose weight. These studies divide the participants into two groups: diet-only and diet-exercise. Yes, you already know the results. You’re right the diet-only group lost significantly LESS abdominal fat than the diet/exercise group.
Rather than beat yourself up about the added weight, just adopt a new routine that includes regular exercise and a healthy diet. It is so easy to fall for the quick solution of diet-only but it fails to remove that stubborn stomach fat.
Sometimes just the thought of starting an exercise routine is enough to have a drink or some chocolate. Start doing anything else but cardio exercises. You have to care for yourself and not give in to the easy path of avoidance and no discipline. If you need an exercise-diet buddy then get one. If you need to join an exercise group, then get off the giant bean bag that you have permanently deformed and sign up.
Some people already have their exercise routines but you may have to start exercising at a less vigorous level at first. Don’t run over to the high school and try wind sprints with the kids. Also, don’t become side-tracked by a perfectly shaped TV model who does ab exercises.
Believe me when I list below the two most important aspects of getting rid of visceral fat. I know you learned before this that visceral fat is the fat deposited around your stomach area and resides in between the internal organs. Bad stuff.
1. Have your fitness professional determine the best high intensity forms of exercise and full-body resistance training. Low intensity cardio exercises are good for overall health but they simply don’t remove anyone’s visceral fat. High intensity exercise such as interval training or full-bodyweight training on the other hand are very effective at helping your body’s ability to manage glucose and increases insulin sensitivity, a crucial step in removing visceral fat.
The high intensity exercise routines are also very effective at increasing your fat-burning hormones and creating a hormonal environment conducive to burning off all abdominal fat,including visceral fat. A warning: find a knowledgeable fitness person to help you start if high intensity exercises haven’t been part of your daily routine. Your enthusiasm could cause injury.
2. In addition to high intensity exercises, it’s vitally important to get blood sugar under control to help restore insulin sensitivity through the right nutrition. This means trying to eliminate sugars and refined starches in your diet, and substituting healthy fats (such as avocados, nuts, seeds, coconut fat, olive oil, free-range eggs, fatty fish and fish oils, etc), as well as increasing protein and fiber intake.
If you still have corn syrup in the food products you eat, just eliminate it. I could write another article regarding eliminating any use of harmful high fructose corn syrup! The standard diet recommended by the government, which contains an unnaturally high grain intake does NOT contribute to controlling blood sugar and reducing visceral fat!
