Excess Abdominal Fat is Dangerous to Your Health!!

Many of us, men and women, have that excess ugly belly fat and love handles. I already know I don’t like the way it looks, the way it makes my clothes fit, but I DIDN’T know if was actually DANGEROUS to  my health!

 

As much as 70% of our population are either overweight or obese, However, most of us don’t realize the health dangers. There are two kinds of fat in our abdomens. Subcutaneous fat is the one that keeps our abs from being visible and lies directly below the skin. The second type of fat is called visceral fat that lies deeper in the abdomen beneath your mucscle and surrounding your organs. It also plays a role in giving certain men that “beer belly” look, where the stomach sticks out but feels hard when you press it.

 

Visceral fat is more dangerous than subcutaneous fat. Both types are dangerous and greatly increase your risk of heart disease, diabetes, high blood pressure, stroke…..and the list gets longer! So there’s our problem, what is the solution?

 

There is no quick fix! No ab rollers, ab rockers, or belts that will get rid of ugly belly fat. You can not just spot reduce your stomach it doesn’t work that way. You need to combine a sound nutritious diet along with an exercise plan designed for you that will stimulate the hormonal and metabolic response within your body.

 

I have had five abdominal surgeries in my life. The last two made me look like I was pregnant! I had to wear my husband’s shorts! I had always thought my stomach was fat, but now, when I see pictures 10 to 15 years ago, I looked good! I had abs! You could see them. It has been 18 months since the last surgery and finally my stomach is coming back down, I don’t know if it will ever be like it used to be, that is a lot of slicing and dicing through both kinds of fat! But by educating myself on foods that help burn fat, foods to stay away from and total body workouts, with some resistance training.

 

Here is something I do all the time! You can flatten your stomach while you are driving, sitting watching t.v., at work, really anytime any place. Go to this link:

Eating To Burn Fat

Aloha,

Well, the Holiday Season is totally upon us with all of it's wonderful  and temptations! Don't worry, relax, enjoy! I am not talking about going on a diet to lose weight here, I am talking about teaching yourself how to eat foods that will help you to burn fat and promote lean muscle. You want 6 pack abs? Stop doing crunches! Everything I have learned in the Truth About Abs by Mike Geary, a certified nutritionist and personal trainer, has totally changed my whole outlook on what to eat and how to exercise. And it is really not hard at all.  At any age! Click Here!

Are you aware that some foods you think are unhealthy are actually good for you, and help your body to burn abdominal fat? For instance eggs, and yes, including the yolks! On the other hand, whole grain, which we are told is good for us, might actually be making you gain more body fat, making you sluggish! Unfortunately, Red Velvet Cake is not one of those foods that help us to burn fat! Too bad, I could be really toned up and buff!


Other foods marketed as "healthy" such as soy milk, soy protein, and other processed soy products contain specific concentrated compounds that can cause something in your body referred to as "stubborn belly fat"?

As far as what food to not eat, the first one I'd like to warn you about is "whole grains". 

This includes whole grain bread, bagels, muffins, pasta, and more. You probably already know that refined grains like white bread are bad for you... but I bet you think that “whole grains” are good for you and can help you to lose fat. Well, this could be a big mistake holding you back from a lean body and flat stomach.

This will probably shock you but three foods you should stop eating are: corn, soy and wheat! And I thought those were healthy! These are three so called healthy foods.

Currently, the average adult eating a typical modern western diet in countries such as the US, Canada, Australia, etc consumes approximately 67% of their total caloric intake from only 3 foods -- CORN, SOY, AND WHEAT (and their derivatives).

If you are serious about eating more healthy and eating fat burning foods, I will send you a complimentary e-book written by my associate, Mike Geary along with some informative emails that will give you a great starting point for the body you want, male or female, age 20 or age 70!

Easy Way to Lose Weight and Tone Up!

I know. Why on the day before Thanksgiving would anybody want to read a blog about losing weight and toning up? I mean, we are going to eat so much tomorrow, in Thanksgiving for all the blessings and bounty of what we have, that we will be full for days!

Well this is the good news! We can all have an over eat or if you like, a cheat day, when you read Micheal Geary's e-book, The Truth About Abs! He doesn't give you a "diet" to lose weight, he gives you information about the foods you eat, and which foods are great for burning fat and promoting lean muscle. Yes, and we can cheat one day a week! You can customize his nutrition advice and exercise advice and tailor it to your specific needs and lifestyle.

To summarize, here are some things that you can try:

Eat 5-6 small meals per day about every 3 hours. Try to make your portion sizes equal!


Plan your meals for the entire week. When you shop, you will only buy the food you will be eating, so if you don't have junk food around, you won't eat it!

Figure out how many calories you can eat daily to lose weight.

If you exercise in the morning before you eat breakfast, you will speed up your metabolism for the whole day! Easier said than done, don't I know it! But it will also help you out mentally, and you will feel good both physically and mentally!

Here is a short list of some foods that will help you to burn fat and gain muscle tone:

-->
Yes it is true, an apple a day!
Pears
Berries
Beans
Avocado
Sweet Potatoes
Brown Rice
Artichokes
Sprouted Grain Bread
Oatmeal
Peas
Broccoli

There are a lot more, of course, but it is Mike that writes the book, I am merely a student trying to balance my out of shape body back into, well, the best shape I can get in to!

Basically, we need to re educate ourselves on what is good for us and what is not! You can get a copy of my complimentary e-book by filling out the form below. It is a sample of what you will receive when you order the Truth About Abs. There are so many bonuses that come with this book!

Now, remember also, that everything that you do can be turned into exercise. Even cooking that Thanksgiving Turkey and doing all the clean up before and after! I always ask myself,  why do I clean my home prior to having Thanksgiving just to clean it again after? That work will count as exercise!
