Want to Lose Belly Fat? Put Down the Cheeseburger and Pick Up These Five Healthy Eating Habits

In most people’s quest to lose belly fat it usually starts will lots of crunches, then maybe some reverse crunches and possibly even more crunches to really feel that “burn”. It doesn’t matter how many crunches you do if you are still eating cheeseburgers, fries, pizza and other types of junk food. What you eat is so important in the quest to slim down.

What foods should you eat in order to lose weight? With all the fad diets, weight loss pills that magically melt away the pounds while you sit in your favorite recliner and other nonsense it can be very confusing as to what proper nutrition is.

Let’s clear through the clutter and give you a starting point to healthy eating.

·       Fruits and Vegetables: Rich in vitamins, antioxidants and fiber, they make the perfect snack. So instead of reaching for those Doritos to snack on, grab a handful of grapes or an apple.

·       Protein: As the building block of your muscles, protein is an important part of your diet. When choosing what proteins to eat, look for lean proteins like chicken breasts, tuna fish, turkey or egg whites.

·       Water: Staying hydrated is very important to your weight loss goals. It should be an important part of your daily routine anyway; most people don’t know just how much water they lose throughout the day. The usual guideline is to drink eight glasses of water throughout the day, although you may want to drink more if your exercise intensely.

·       Complex carbs: Complex carbs like whole wheat bread are a necessary for healthy nutrition. By breaking down in slowly in your body, complex carbs help keep you full and energized for longer periods of time.

·       Good fats: Almonds, seeds, olive oil, avocados and nuts are all excellent sources of “good fat”.

You can change to a more healthy way of eating and it’s not as hard as you think, as long as you have a plan of action laid out for you.

Embrace Healthy Eating With These 5 Simple Tips

Do you really know what a healthy diet is?

With so much talk these days about what to eat, or more accurately, what not to eat, you’d be forgiven for being somewhat confused about what a healthy diet consists of!

Don’t be fooled by what the media or the latest fad diet tells you – a healthy diet is all about getting the balanced right, in fact it’s is more about moderation in everything, than restrictive eating plans.

So, what is a healthy diet? Here’s a guide to help you:

#1 Eat wholegrain carbs at each meal
Include plenty of oats, breakfast cereals, bread, pasta, rice, and noodles in your diet.
Peas, beans, and lentils can also be included as part of this group.

Try to eat mostly wholegrain varieties, and avoid frying too often (for example French fries), or adding too much fat, rich sauces, or dressings.

#2 Consume at least 5 portions of fruit & veg each day
This group can include fresh, frozen or canned fruit and vegetables, as well as dried fruit, and 100% whole fruit juice (or vegetable juice). Again beans, peas and lentils can be included here.

You should try to eat a wide variety of different coloured fruits and vegetables, and avoid adding butter, or creamy sauces to vegetables. When choosing tinned fruit go for those canned in natural juices, and vegetables canned with no added salt.

#3 Eat 3 portions of dairy foods each day
Choose a variety of dairy foods including milk, cheese, yoghurt, fromage frais, or calcium enriched soy varieties.

Wherever possible opt for the lower fat versions.

#4 Eat small amounts of protein at most meals
The main protein containing foods are meat, poultry, fish, eggs, nuts, beans and pulses.

Take care that your portion of meat is not the largest on your dinner plate. Remember, beans and pulses are an extremely good alternative to meat; so try to include these regularly.

#5 Reduce your intake of fatty and sugary foods
The main culprits are margarine, spreads, butter, cooking oils, salad dressings, cream, sweet foods such as chocolate, and cookies, and fatty foods such as ice cream, and creamy sauces.  

Having an occasional treat is fine, and can actually help you stick with healthy eating long term; however make sure the frequency isn’t too regular.
