Big Butt, Love Handles, Fat Belly - What Can Be Done?

     Wish you can get a handle on your love handles? Or wish you could drop that fat off your belly? You've seen the diets, you've seen the programs, from nutritional systems to curvy places to work out, and you've tried everything, right? Well most likely, since you're reading this, those diets didn't work. So, what went wrong?

The problem might stem from a perspective. You have thought and are looking in the mirror at your problem areas from a totally old way of thinking: these problem areas are separate parts of our bodies. So the best approach will be to focus on each area separately and to incorporate different techniques for each area.

Here's the skinny on problem areas: Our genetics play huge a role in our body and weight - size, shape, and predisposition to being overweight. After all, we are born with a particular number of fat cells, whether those fat cells are loaded with fat or not is entirely up to you. The "fat" we burn is actually the contents of those fat cells.

That being said, each of us has particular areas of storage for these fat cells. Men usually have them in the middle abdominal area. Women have them on their thighs, mid-section, and breasts. These fat deposits are the last reserves in a battle to keep your body free from starvation. Nature's way of protecting your food source.

The only way to truly burn away our fat is to increase our lean muscle mass. The lean muscle is what will essentially eat away at our existing fat reserves. That's why a diet that reduces your protein along with fat will usually lead to muscle deterioration. That loss of muscle will make your body unable to burn enough fat to make any difference in how you look or in the fat you retain.

While you are working on your problem areas with exercises like abdominal crunches or aerobic exercises for your thighs, you may want to think of your problem area connected with your overall percentage of body fat. Along Consider your muscle to fat ratio - with increasing the level of lean muscle you decrease your fat.

The most powerful way to eliminate fat is to stick to a strict diet that reduces our ability to get a constant supply of quick sugar - such as pasta, processes breads, and sweets. We also need to be careful and not starve our body of needed foods. If our body believes that we are starving, it's going to try its best to hold on to its fat reserves, making it that more difficult to lose the desired weight.

The next thing to do is make sure you are getting your fill of water every day. Water moves toxins and fat out of your body as well as deliver nutrients to all of your vital organs - and they're all vital right?

When dealing with problem areas, don't simply focus on the spot that concerns you. But rather, take a step back and look at the whole picture. Doing so, will deliver greater success and greater results you can see.

The big picture is water intake and diet. The focused picture is on specific areas that you are going to exercise to eliminate the fatty content of those cells! Get a head start on your weight loss program with a few ideas that you should do first.
