How do you reduce belly fat in a month?

[Derek Wilson]

To lose your belly fat, the most important thing you need is Determination to Look Good and Remain Healthy. You can?t lose all the belly fat in just one month, but you can minimize it for now and gradually lose it completely.


Definitely you need to be on a proper diet and exercise schedule , in order to be in shape. Workout regularly, atleast 5-6 days a week (15?20 minutes of strength training and running/ jogging/ cycling/ skipping/ aerobics/ zumba/tae bo etc). The pattern of your workout should be changed every month as your body gets habitual to one kind of workout.


Anything you eat should not be too much into a meal, say instead of having 400 ml milk at a time, take it 200-200 ml twice a day; instead of having 250 g of any fruit at a time, take 100-100 g of seasonal fruit twice a day; instead of having 4 or 5 chapattis in your lunch or dinner, take mid meal snacks so that you feel less hungry at your lunch and dinner time. Some of good snacking options are- Roasted Almonds- Walnuts, Roasted Bajra Puffs, Roasted Jowar Puffs, Roasted Black Chana, Roasted Flakes (Gluten Free Oats, Wheatflakes, Ragi Flakes etc) & Murmura Bhel, Multigrain Sandwich with Hummus or Peanut Butter, Boiled Egg White with Hummus, Detox Smoothies, Fruit with low Fat Yoghurt, Buttermilk, Small piece of Roasted Chicken/ Fish (No Cornflour or refined Flour).


Take a wholesome breakfast within two hours of getting up.

1. Add small snack in Mid morning.
2. Take a moderate Lunch.
3. Again add small snack in evening.
4. Take a very light dinner, but don?t skip.

Avoid sugar and desserts mostly, occasionally take them. Do not ever take fruits as your dinner or as your dessert (i.e. Post workout).
Lastly, take more and more of fluids (not fruit juices) to keep your body hydrated and lose fat fast. Warm water is good to increase your metabolism.
Take small and frequent meals with low carbohydrate, low fat, high fiber and moderately high protein diet; i.e take more of salads, sprouts, fruits with peels, multigrain cereals like oats, pulses with husk, boiled egg white, boiled chicken etc.

A few years ago, I knew a guy who used to do 400 crunches a day and of course he had the best flat, toned and ripped belly and because I had a bulging belly at the time (mine is still not flat) so I was very impressed with him and I asked him how can I get a belly like his and he just said, "I do 400 crunches you also do it" and he just smiled and left. And I thought that that is the only way so I started doing it (I actually pushed myself beyond my limits) and within a week I got a serious cramp in my lower back. Then I spent months visiting a doctor. Since then I have been super scared of doing crunches.

Right now for toning my belly I do cycling and I eat almost all the things that you have mentioned here. So, I just want to say "Thank You" for sharing tips that actually work.

Just a quick update on this.

I have started training again but this time with the help of a professional trainer. So, he has started making me lift some weights also because he said that I need to build muscles otherwise, just losing weight or trying to tone my belly would not be enough. He says that it is extremely important to gain muscles. So, because I cannot lift a lot of heavy weights, he has told me to start with just 2 kg of weights and I workout on my upper body just 3 days a weeks while taking breaks between the days. Also, as far as having a toned belly is concerned, I do just 5 crunches a day (3 times a week). I can't do more than that as you already know.

As, I will progress, I will keep updating here.
