How to Lose Gut Fat Fast

If you have extra gut fat, and you are tired of it, take some actions to get rid of it for good. Don't believe the hype that is out there. There are so many diet fads, pills, and exercise machines that promise results. You can spend hundreds, even thousands of dollars trying to get rid of your gut, but with little or no success. That is the bad news, but the good news is, you don't need any of those things to lose your gut fat. Here are some of the promises that products offers make that are unrealistic, and the truth about your body and how you can naturally lose weight.

• Lie - You can eat whatever you want and as much as your want and still lose weight.

Truth - In order to lose gut fat, you need to consume less calories than you burn each day. If you do not burn off the calories that you eat, they will store on your body as fat. You should be concerned when you see and ad that suggests that unhealthy and gluttonous eating will not matter and your will still lose weight. Even if that pill or product worked, it is still not healthy for you. What you eat will go through your body. There is no such thing as a healthy and natural miracle pill that will make all of your calories disappear. Products like these simply increase your heart rate, like caffeine does, and you can only do that for so long before it causes problems.

• Lie - All you need to do is use this ab machine for 15 minutes a day and you will lose inches in a single week.

Truth - While short yet intense workouts are the best gut fat burning solution, you will need to do more than use their machine. You have to eat right! If you don't eat a healthy and balanced diet along with using that machine, you will not burn the fat. You might develop toned abs, but if you don't change your diet, you will have toned abs under a fatty gut. In order to truly have six-pack abs, you will have to increase your overall metabolism, and eat less junk, less fat, and less sugar. These machines are not miracles. They only work when accompanied with a good diet.

• Lie - Eating low fat and low carbs is the best way to lose weight.

Truth - You need fat and you need carbs. You can't try to cut out important nutrients like fats and carbohydrates and expect your body to perform optimally. Balance and moderation is the key. Remember that good old fashion food pyramid? Did you know that the government has created a new one? You should take a look at it. You need to eat fats and carbohydrates in proportion with your vegetables and fruits. Pay attention to serving sizes, and be aware of what types of carbs and fats you are getting. Obviously whole grain and other complex carbs will be better for you, and unsaturated fats will also be better for your body. It is not some much of getting rid of carbs and fats as it is watching what kinds and the proportion of the rest of your diet.

Learning these three simple truths should help you to guard against the propaganda that the weight loss industry splashes on the media. Save your money, and do things right. Your body will thank you in the end, and you will see that you gut fat has disappeared. Remember that the easy way out is not all that it is cracked up to be, and you are better off with good old fashioned moderation in your diet, and regular exercise.
