Essentially, when it comes to developing a slim waistline and burning down abdominal fat, diet more than exercise plays the major role. I am not saying exercise is not important, but the truth is the real culprit that led you into developing a protruding stomach in the first place is your eating habit and most especially the kind of food you eat.

Drink plenty of water.

Taking water, especially plenty of it is the easiest and the quickest way to restore the damages fat has done to your appearance. For one, water aids digestion and also prevents you from eating too much. This explains why fat easily makes its way into your system and goes straight to the mid section of your body. The best thing to do is to cultivate the habit of drinking 6 to 8 glasses of water each day.

Avoid eating at bedtime.

If you truly want to get flat stomach or six pack abs, then you would need to discipline yourself and avoid eating some hours before turning in. if you can’t help eating before bed time, experts recommend that, you must eat at least three hours to your sleeping time. If this is not okay for you, then avoid eating heavy meals and go for a handful of fruits or vegetables. You would be surprised at the great difference this simple idea will make if you give it a try.

Eat short burst of meals.

Eating huge meals three times a day as far as developing a flat stomach is concerned is the old way of living. Although many people would find it very difficult to throw away this habit; it should not pose any difficulty to those whose goal is to get a flat stomach. The best way to do this is to eat short burst of meals through out the day. This way you can check the bloating appearance the food you eat gives you while making you feel better. What is more, if you eat more, your metabolism has something to work on and that means plenty of fat burning.

Although the tips shared here appear quite simple. It would interest you to know that they are the same tips that came to my aid when I was desperate to get a flat stomach. Of course, you would do more than drink plenty of water, avoid eating before turning in and eat food at intervals. Still, the best way to begin is to give these tips a try.
