How to decrease Size

If you have taken the time to stretch out that measuring tape and you are not happy with what you see, it is time to make a change. The good news is that there are ways to reduce belly fat significantly. Start with your diet. Eating foods that will help to burn through excess weight is very important. To do so, eat foods that are rich in antioxidants, such as greens, and leafy vegetables. Focus on consuming no more than a palm-sized portion of protein with meals. Avoid red meat or at least consume minimally. Consume whole grains and get rid of “white foods” or heavily refined foods.

 Your diet is not enough to focus on, though. You also need to exercise. Work on exercises that specifically target the larger muscle groups. Cardio is one of the foundations for any weight loss program. But, make sure you're doing the right types for your goals. It is also important for many men to focus specifically on reducing stress levels, which notoriously cause weight gain. Reduce portion sizes in the foods you eat. More so, cut back on your alcohol consumption.

 For those who are looking for a way to reduce the weight, realize a full body weight loss plan is best. You will need to work at the plan, too. This means a consistent workout plan. If you have a larger waistline, realize that by reducing your weight, you can reduce your health risks. Just because your waistline is high right now does not mean you cannot reverse or prevent these illnesses and health strains from happening to you. You just need to take action sooner.

Weight Gain Season Begins It's here—whether you're ready or not. Just look at the seasonal shelves in your favorite store. Retailers like to call it ‘holiday season' but let's be more accurate. Weight Gain season begins now and runs straight through New Year's. The next three months will bring ample opportunity for you to expand your waistline. Of course the choice is yours. Why discuss it now and not mid-way through December? Because now is your opportunity to plan for the weeks ahead. Once the craziness begins, you'll be too busy to put a plan into action. 

 So let's take this moment of clarity, this calm before the storm, to outline a two-part plan that will save your waist from unwanted holiday inches. 

 1) Part One: Your Exercise Plan. Exercise is the first thing people cut when they get busy, and the holiday season is notorious for empty gyms. This year do something different—obligate yourself to exercise. Promising to yourself won't do it, you need to promise to others so that you won't drop the ball.

 Sign up to work with a fitness profession – This is the perfect solution for consistent, challenging and effective workouts. I'll give you the attention and assistance that you need to power through the holidays in better shape than ever – talk about motivating! Join a class – You won't be as effective exercising on your own during the busy holiday season, so join a class for accountability.

 Find something challenging that gets your heart rate elevated and uses strength training. Get a serious exercise buddy – Some friends can be an awesome help while others end up pulling you down. When looking for an exercise buddy consider the following questions: - Do they share your fitness goals? - Are they fairly encouraging? - Do they give up easily? - Are they at your fitness level? 

2) Part Two: Your Diet Plan. The holidays offer ample opportunities to indulge, so you need to hammer down some guidelines before hitting that buffet line. I'm not saying that you shouldn't indulge in any seasonal treats, but use moderation. Don't use the holidays as an excuse to eat until the point of being uncomfortable – will you really miss that bloated feeling? Decide which treats to cut out this year. Don't bring edible treats to the office or to parties. You know that the leftovers will come home and you'll end up eating far more than your share. This year do everyone a favor by not gifting fattening treats. When faced with a buffet line, load your plate first with greens, vegetables, and lean meats before bread and heavier foods. Also, drink water with your meal and keep alcoholic beverages to a 2-drink maximum. Beware of holiday drinks – most are brimming with calories. Hot drinks from coffee shops, cocktails at parties and creamy eggnog are all very enjoyable and all filled with empty calories. Stick with hot tea or unsweetened coffee. Everywhere you go during the holiday season brings you face-to-face with a plate of sweets. To avoid being a bore but without adding inches to your waist, try the one treat rule. Each time you're in a social situation that involves sweets just eat one, and enjoy your treat slowly. You don't have to gain weight this holiday season. The key is your mindset. If you approach the holidays with the mindset of, ‘I deserve to indulge and I shouldn't have to exercise' then you'll enter 2020 a few pounds heavier, a little less healthy, and with lower energy than ever before.

 I believe that you deserve better. I believe that you should enter 2020 in better shape than you are today, healthier than you've been in a long time, and with more energy than you thought possible. I'm here to help – call or reply to this post to set up a fitness consultation with me. I'd love to show you how to transform your body over the weeks to come.
