Losing belly fat isn't impossible. But there surely are some "tricks" that can make it more simple.


The thought of dieting to lose belly fat is crazy --0who wants to focus on everything you CAN'T eat?


Instead, these belly fat blasting tricks are focused on all the simple, positive things you CAN do to still lose belly fat FAST!


Ready?

1. Decrease the size of your plates --0switch up your dinner plates for smaller, snack plates. Same with your bowls. Guaranteed you'll eat less.

2. Use smaller serving utensils and eating utensils. Ever tried eating with chopsticks? You go much more slowly --0same idea when your fork or spoon is smaller. And when you can't serve with a shovel, you'll get "bored" more quickly and ultimately eat less.

3. Use candles --0heck, who doesn't want a candelight dinner --0particularly when doing so can help slash belly fat! And it's not because you'll eat less to impress your date, it's because research shows that those who eat in a nicer setting practice more portion control.

4. Serve individual portions, not family style --0when you have the option to go back for seconds and thirds, you will (think Thanksgiving).

5. Brush your teeth --0well, hopefully you're doing that now --0but do so immediately after each meal (and snack) to incinerate belly fat. More food, or dessert, won't sound so appealing with minty fresh breath (and your company will like it too).

6. Eat with your non dominant hand --0seriously. Go ahead and try. It's great for your mind, but will also slow down the speed you eat, which correlates to less belly fat in the long run.

7. Exercise with a friend --0not nutrition related, but this 1 simple strategy soc is sure to keep belly fat at bay.

As you can see, these 7 simple belly fat breakthroughs couldn't be easier.

These are each baby steps. I didn't say don't eat X. I didn't say go out and start running now. When added together, these will all help you reach your ultimate goals ... lose belly fat, maintain that healthy body, and have more energy than 6 year old child on a sugar high.
