I saw the advertisements of 'read my secret of how I lost 6 pounds of belly fat'.
I was curious so I clicked on one of them.
The secret is buy this product.
So here is my secret, and it will not cost anything but your time.
There are two steps to my secret.
The first is ingest no sugar and no bread.
That means no soda, diet or otherwise.
Instead of a mid-afternoon pick me up candy bar, eat a banana instead.
Speaking of food, buy blueberries.
You do not have to get fresh ones.
The frozen work just as well and are a lot cheaper.
Blueberries are almost the perfect food to put into your body.
Cut out all after dinner snacks.
If you must eat something, make popcorn.
I do not mean the microwave type.
I mean the kernels that you actually pop yourself.
Something else to avoid is margarine.
Read the ingredients.
If you do not understand what you are reading, why put it in your body? Margarine is a man made product, not a natural one.
The next step is get off the couch and start walking.
I do not mean 'shlep' (a New York expression).
I mean actually walk.
For those of you who might have forgotten how - stand straight, shoulders back, head held high.
(Think of a military stance).
When you walk, it is plant heel, push forward on toes.
If done properly, you will feel the muscles in your abdomen begin to tighten.
(Yes, there are muscles in the abdomen which actually attach to the muscles in your legs.
) You do not have to walk at a rapid pace.
You can stroll along, as long as you feel the muscles tighten in your abdomen with every step.
When I walk my dogs, they stop every five feet to check out every where other dogs had stopped.
When you start walking, set your goal a little further each day.
Pretty soon you will be able to walk a mile, then two, then three, etc.
This is not a quick solution, but an easy one that works.
