1) Stay off the scale
Using your scale as an indicator of your progress can be very misleading. Very often when people start to excercise, they build some muscle mass which adds for example 5 pounds to their weight and lose 5 pounds of fat.
When they look what their scale says, they can be frustrated. Instead, use a mirror as an indicator of your progress. Also if your clothes fit you better and you feel better, you will know you are on your way.
2) Reduce calories gradually
Reducing calories drastically can do opposite for you. Your body will switch to a starvation mode and it´ll be more difficult to bur fat.
Reduce calories slowly week by week.
3) Vary your caloric intake
This is a cool way to outsmart your body. Eat different levels of calories each day instead of the exact same amount daily.
4) Train with weights
Training with weights is essential. It will help you to burn more stomach fat by burning more calories, even up to 39 hours after your training.
Plus as additional bonus, your muscles will burn fat by themselves daily.
5) High intensity intervals
This is a good tip if you wish to burn your belly fat even faster. Use brief high intensity training intervals and then take short breaks....and repeat the whole procedure.
6) Eat more fat
What? I want to lose fat and you advice eating even more fat?
Yes, but you need to eat GOOD fat (olive oil, nut, fish, omega 3) that will help your muscles to recover from your training. It is also good for your heart.
7) Increase protein
Your muscles simply need proteins to protect their mass. As you already know, muscles help to burn your stomach fat, so increase your protein intake.
8) Eat 6 smaller meals daily
If you only eat 2 or 3 times daily, change it right now. Your body and muscles need to receive nutrients often, otherwise it will start burning muscles for energy and increase your body fat stores
