It has happened to all of us, we put on a few pounds then a
special occasion comes up, like a wedding or a reunion and when we go
and try and on that dress that we bought a year ago, because it was on
sale, that is just perfect for the occasion, we find that it is
too-tight.
In this article, how to get rid of tummy fat fast, I am going to lay out steps that anyone, man or woman, can use to be able to fit into that special outfit, however, there is one catch, this is not a long term plan, simply one to be used for times when you need to lose a few pounds in a hurry!
O.K. lets get started!
One more thing for the sake of this article I'm going to assume you have a week to drop the extra weight you need to for the special occasion outfit to fit, if you have more time, great, however if you have less, do not despair these tips will still work you just won't lose as much weight.
The first tip is simple and you can start doing it right now, simply stand up straight (you can also do it seating as well) and take a deep breath through your nose now let it all out through your mouth, and imagine you are trying to zip up that tight dress or pair of pants.
Suck in your stomach as far as you can, hold it for a count, and then let go.
This simple movement works the transverse abdominal muscle (which is the deepest of the six abdominal muscles) and when done regularly, especially right after getting up in the morning before you've eaten can reduce your waist by up to one inch!
It's not magic, just the fact that your working those muscles.
You can also do this movement throughout the day, and I would recommend this if you are in a hurry to lose as much as you can around your waist, however if you are looking for the most bang for your tummy-flattening-buck do your deep breathing/stomach vacuums first thing in the morning.
Start off doing only a few and work up until you are doing about 5-10 minutes worth in the morning.
An added benefit of doing this movement is that it helps to condition the upper abs as well.
Also, this a good method to remind yourself not to over-eat, whenever you find your self, craving or reaching for something, you know you should have, suck your stomach in 5-10 times, this serves a duel purpose, first it will help get your mind off food and second it will help to remind you of what you are doing all this for.
The second tip is to go on a low carb diet, the reason being that this will cause you to lose excess water which should make you a little bit smaller.
The simplest way to do this is just to cut out all sweets and breads and eat basically meat, salads, and vegetables for the week.
As I said above it may not be the healthiest thing to do, but you should be o.k. if you only do it for one week or so.
My last tip is simply to try and walk as much as possible, I know this does not sound like much, but when you just start on a low carb diet and are stressed as it is about the special occasion the last thing you need is to start a full blown exercise program.
And besides walking burns calories and can be fit in anytime, on the treadmill, during a lunch hour, and before and after work.
When you are trying to squeeze in a special outfit, every ounce of movement helps.
I hope you enjoyed how to get rid of tummy fat fast, but please remember, losing weight fast is never a good idea, it is best to always lose it slowly.
