6 Sure Steps to Losing Fat in 3 Months

What body works, strict diets and exercises cannot achieve, the following steps will achieve in three months.

Step One: Intermittent Fasting

Intermittent fasting (IF) involves not eating for part of each day or a few times a week. When your body doesn't have a constant energy source from the food you eat, it allows your body to utilize the fat it has already stored, and helping you lose belly fat.  Dr. Daryl Gioffre, a celebrity certified nutritionist whose clients include Kelly Ripa and Mario Lopez, adds that when you fast for 16 hours, "your blood sugar and insulin levels lower" and the human growth hormone increases. This increases your metabolic rate "by up to 14 percent in some people," and your body has no other choice but to start burning your body's stored fat for energy.

Step Two: Limit Sugar and Junk Consumption

Do away or cut down with everything coated or sweetened with sugar such as chocolate, ice cream, cookies, pancakes, bread, soda (soft drinks) and sweets – but eat more vegetables, lean protein, and healthy fats (like an avocado a day), and I felt more satiated.

Step Three: Stop Overeating

Intermittent fasting can absolutely help decrease your calorie intake, but if you're ravenous and aren't mindful about how much you're eating, you can easily eat a daily calorie surplus, making you gain weight. It is a big crime most people on Intermittent Fasting commit.

It isn’t bad to satisfy your appetite but it is harmful to overstuff your tummy. Schedule your meals and snacks, but eat only when you are hungry no matter how tempting. Drinking water can make this step much easier.

Step Four: Sleep More Each Night

Sleep for at least seven to eight hours a night; feeling rested will make you feel less hungry and prevent undemanding snacking.

Step Five: Walk More

Take between 10,000 and 12,000 steps a day. Reduce your cab taking or driving – and you can also cultivate the habit of getting down a bus-stop or two to your house. If you are a driving type, get a treadmill – it will make you feel more energetic, preventing muscle aches arising from sitting down all day.

Step Six: Take Time to De-stress

Stress can lead to eating junk meals that can increase cortisol levels – but instead of that cravings, engage in funny activities with your kids, read a book or Bible before bed, watch romantic movies or comedy, play music and sing, meditate on the goodness of God, and get a partner for long walks and chatting. Just make sure you end your day happily, even if it is only for 10 minutes for calm and peace.
