Brown Fat Information

1. In order to effectively and easily increase your metabolism and at the same time burn fat easily, you need to walk or jog for about 30 minutes. Doing this routine three times a week is a sure guarantee to not only reduce total body weight, but more importantly to flatten your stomach.

2. If you are used to eating three huge meals a day, now consider eating six times a day with smaller meals. Eating huge meals is a sure source of fat because you tend to store more energy which is not actually needed. As a result, unused calories are transformed into fats and mostly fats are stored around your abdominal section.

3. Learn the value of incorporating fiber into your diet and cutting down on bad carbohydrates. Many of our favorites are actually causing us to accumulate more fats like white bread, pasta, potatoes and white rice. These kinds of foods should be avoided at all cost because they are easily transformed into blood sugar. As a healthy alternative, go for brown rice and whole wheat bread because they take longer to be digested, thus, keeping you full for a longer period of time, thus giving a chance to flatten your stomach.

4. Choose skim milk over whole milk because most dairy products can cause stomach bloating and gas.

5. To help you tone down your abdominal muscles, incorporate into your regimen some proper abdominal exercises, like crunches. One of the most effective ways to flatten your stomach is to do crunches at least three times per week. Consistency in exercise is a sure guarantee in getting a flat tummy.

6. Keep hydrated. Though water has no caloric value, drinking plenty of water can defy hunger and so you tend to eat less, resulting to the effective way of losing tummy fats and the flattening of your stomach. As recommended, it is advisable to drink 6 to 8 glasses of water per day.

7. Discipline yourself to never eat three hours before bedtime. Eating too much food as you go to sleep can only accumulate fats around your waistline. Remember that at night, your body should rest. Unused energy is transformed into fats and are added to your belly fat, resulting to your chances of flattening your stomach.

8. Once in a while, treat yourself with your favorite food or dessert, but with moderation. It is actually unhealthy to deprive yourself with the food you love. Depriving yourself completely with your favorite food will only lead you to return to your old eating habit. As a rule, moderation is the key.

Finally, there is no shortcut to flatten your stomach. There is more hard work than good time while you are in the process of losing your tummy fats. In the end, however, when you achieved your goal you will realize that the sacrifices are worth the efforts.

My teachers have said I am beautiful before, and my history teacher recently said I should be photogenic. I am about two inches from six feet. I have an athlete’s metabolism (too bad I am a bookworm, lol (: ), so I don’t necessarily "get fat". I am African American, and most of the time my skin looks pretty good – I don’t get pimples, my eyebrows have a nice arch, my lips are full but aren’t too big. Plus, I have my mother’s birght brown eyes and my fathers long, curly lahses. I do have scars but most of them are faded – if not they are in odd positions (inner thighs, crook of elbow, etc.). I wear glasses, but it’s not like I would be blind without them. My teeth are offset but people still love my smile. I’m not sure if it matters but my butt isn’t the biggest around and my chest is ok. I am also currently taking a Spanish class and my pronunciation is pretty good if I do say so myself.

P.S. – I am thirteen years old, I was just wondering if I could make the cut becuase my momma has repeatedly said that I could be a model.

P.S.S. – Thanks for your time!!!!!! lol

Well without a picture, it’s hard to say.

Go for it though.

Good Nutrition like everything else does not have to be complicated, simple is better.

Follow these simple rules for 2 to 3 months and you will be amazed at the results.

1. Revise your Cupboard.

Simple Rule: If Man Made it Don’t Eat It.

If it is not in your house you can’t eat it. Rid your kitchen of processed foods and snacks.

Do not fall for marketing that claim low-fat, low-sugar, low-carbohydrate. Too many companies manipulate labels and they are hard to figure out. Keep your cupboard simple.

Chicken, tuna, vegetables (fresh, frozen and canned are fine), fresh fruits, and complex carbohydrates consisting of whole wheat, brown rice, yams, oatmeal (not the processed quick cook kind). Use plenty of herbs and spices so your meals don’t get boring.

2. Handy Gauge

Simple Rule: Use Your Hand to Gauge How Much to Eat.

Do not count calories, weigh food or other methods that make eating difficult. A fist or palm sized amount of lean protein along with a fist-sized amount of a complex carb (brown rice, oatmeal, and whole wheat) and fist sized serving of vegetable or fruit.

3. Eat Less More Often.

Simple Rule: Eat every 3 hours.

Eating nutritious smaller meals and snacks every few hours will keep your metabolism high all day long with a steady supply of energy. Do not eat out, take all your food to work.

4. Water Yourself

Simple Rule: Drink twice as often as you eat.

Water makes everything in our bodies work better. This cannot be understated. The first thing you should do every morning when you get up is drink a glass of water.

5. Friendly Fats

Simple Rule: Friendly Fats Fight Fat.

Consume friendly fats (2 to 5 tbsp.) 2 times a day. Reduce bad fats found in meat, cheese, butter, margarine, shortening and whole milk. Eliminate fried foods and snacks.

Your friendly fats are linolenic acid (omega-3) and linoleic acid (omega-6) found in fish and some nuts. The easiest and best way to consume these friendly fats is to buy Flax Seed Oil, Hemp Seed Oil or Udo’s Choice Perfected Oil Blend. Do not cook with these oils but mix them with food you are ready to eat. You can also add CLA supplements to your diet.

6. Nutrients

Simple Rule: Mother Nature Provides the Best Fat Fighters

Take a multivitamin and be sure to get plenty of Calcium through low-fat dairy sources.

Consume 1 gram of protein per pound of body weight (one chicken breast can have 40-45 grams of protein). Consume 35 grams of fiber a day (good sources are bran, brown rice, beans and green vegetables).

Nutrition and weight loss can be simple.

Increase the speed of your fat loss by exercising 30 minutes a day or for 1 hour every other day. Please add a weight lifting routine.

High-density lipoproteins (HDL), often referred to as the “Good Cholesterol”, circulates in the blood stream collecting fat and cholesterol from arteries and transporting them to the liver for removal. The movie shows how these lipoproteins (in blue and green) can gather the fat molecules (in white and brown) into small particles allowing them to flow through blood vessels.

Registered Dietitian, Joan O’Keefe discusses the health benefits of whole grain, as well as some tips on how to regulate caloric intake when on a weight loss plan. O’Keefe describes whole grain as a great way for people who are looking to up their caloric intake (athletes, growing children and injured or sick people) to do so in a healthy manner. Whole grains, O’Keefe explains, are cereal grains that contain bran, germ and endosperm. Common whole grains include wheat, oat, barley, brown rice and rye. People who are trying to lose weight should consider a breakfast of an egg white, tomato, bell pepper, onion and mushroom omelet. When considering whether to include a whole grain piece of toast in that breakfast, you should eat the omelet and then ask yourself, “am I still hungry?” If the answer is no, leaving the piece of toast out of your breakfast will save you from taking in unnecessary extra calories.

Hi there ! i recently invested in a recumbent stationary bike. It does wonders! personally i love it better than a treadmill, it hurts my joints less and i can keep on going on it for longer than half an hour!
This has been my 3rd day now and each day i have been burning 500 calories in an hour of being on the bike. I want to lose 15-20 pounds, how long do you think it will take me if i keep this up 4 days a week? I also eat eggs, toast, bacon and some times hash browns for breakfast, lunch time i usually eat sushi or soup and dinner , chicken breast , veges, salads , fish , mashed potatoes or mini round potatoes. Is there anything you would suggest? I eat 3 times a day , it’s just how my body always is i have a really good metabolism , its just one year i went on a big splurg and now i have been the same weight for a year ever since! how many pounds do you think i will lose if i keep this up for a month or 2 weeks? Not sure how calories work and all. 3 days i work 12 hour shifts ( and im basically standing for 8 hours of it , not sure how many calories that will burned either! ) thanks so much for reading

I am 23 yrs of age
I am only 5ft 1 weigh 145 pounds ( i def don’t look it though, from what people have told me they are shocked to believe i am that weight, i look 130 pounds , which is really weird! i guess the fat is everywhere or in one certain spot)

Well you weigh 145 so you burn like 1400 calories a day for just being alive
1400(for being alive)+500 (the cals you burn)= 1900
1900 x 4 = 7600
1400 (on the days you don’t work out) x 3= 4200
7600+4200= 11800 calories a week
which is a little more than 2 pounds a week
so it will take you about 2 months unless you start working out everyday
sorry if thats confusing!
good luck!!!

-shannnon!

I am 5′2" and 125 pounds. I would like to lose 20 pounds overall if possible and just tighten up. I want a lot more energy and to feel healthier too, but I know that will come with the better eating and exercise.

I found a diet in a health magazine claiming to shed over 10 pounds in 3 weeks. Each week changes very little so I just posted the first. Please let me know if you think it will work and what I could do after to keep it off. The magazine actually said not to exercise much as my body will be using a lot more energy already as my metabolism will be quickly speeding up, and its just a big change. So I plan to just put in a lot more exercise and things like protein and fiber after the diet, still maintaining the 6 small meal structure.

DIET PLAN

Week One (+2 Snacks)

Meal One: 10
3/4 cup cooked oatmeal (steel cut preferred)
5 unsalted walnuts
1 orange or banana

Meal Two: 12
1 apple

Meal Three: 2
1/2 cup whole-wheat or brown rice
4 oz skinless chicken breast grilled
1 cup steamed or grilled spinach

Meal Four: 4
2 cups celery
1 tbsp natural almond butter

Meal Five: 6
6 oz fish grilled
1 cup steamed or grilled zucchini
1 cup steamed or grilled asparagus
3 cups salad (greens, tomatoes) seasoned with lemon juice

Meal Six:
1 cup mixed berries

Total- Calories: 1,180; Fats: 33g; Saturated Fat: 6g; Trans Fat: 0g; Cholesterol: 180mg; Sodium: 550mg; Total Carbohydrates: 137 g; Dietary Fiber: 37g; Sugars: 54g; Protein: 91g; Iron: 11mg

OK, first of all. Losing more than 1-2 lbs a week is never considered healthy. Although 10 lbs a month is still good.

I guess 10 lbs in 3 weeks is still good if you are going to start working out afterward. I would not recommend going further than that.

The diet plan looks good, It seems to have what you need. But it may not be enough or too much depending on your body.

Go here:
http://www.mayoclinic.com/health/calorie-calculator/NU00598

This will tell you how much you need to ‘maintain’ your weight. Take 500-1000 out of it and you will be set (500-1000 cals a day = 3500-7000 cals a week = 1-2 lbs a week).

Never take out more than 1000 cals, or you will be sorry (lose muscle, fast weight lost = saggy skin). Just fix your diet a bit to make sure it falls within your cal intake.

It really does look like a great diet

Cheers ^^
