Yes, I have become apathetic and lazy.
Yes, you’ve got it right. I’m really worried about my growing belly, which is causing me a lot of trouble. The problem is more my thinking than my physical disability, which happens because of the same thing. I became lethargic and very sluggish because of the heavier belly. My clothes didn’t fit properly, and this problem became more apparent after I retired in October 2019. I considered myself a very active person, and people would tell me I had good stamina and could stand for hours without support. However, recently, I realized that, after a while, I was looking for a place to sit or lean on one side to share the extra weight.
Morning walks should be made regular.
Recently, I met my schoolmates after almost four decades, and they have also changed their appearance, but none have become as deformed as I am. My close friend even advised me not to give up my morning walks at any cost. He spoke to me in a way that sounded like he was worried about my bulging, mainly in my abdomen.
Genetic factors were not responsible in my case.
My family members are all within the normal limits of appearance and body weight. My wife in particular is getting slimmer, and she really motivates me to eat less and exercise more. As everyone’s curiosity grows, I also try to read all the lifestyle magazines on body weight and waist circumference, which are disproportionate to the rest of the body.
The seriousness of taking the remedial course hardly lasts for one week.
What I did after reading all this caution was to follow some guidelines myself, but unfortunately, that serious follow-up didn’t last more than a week. I also realized that, with this non-serious approach, I couldn’t change myself to maintain perfect health.
Recently, a friend of mine who is a doctor told me that if I do the following three things, I will reduce my belly size significantly in just 15 days.
These three are:
Drink water. Start your day with warm water.
Walk: Walk after each meal to prevent body fat gain.
Eat less. Losing weight doesn’t mean not eating at all.
I realize that, although it is easy to hear all this, it is very difficult to continue at the same time. Still, I make it a daily habit to follow it carefully without indulgence. I’ve only been following him (my doctor friend) for a few days now because I don’t find it difficult to do these three things. Let me see where I land.
Stop sugar intake, at least in tea.
Another thing that I did was stop the sugar intake, especially with the tea, which I normally take many times during the day. Many close friends and so-called advisors have told me that stopping sugar altogether would also help me reduce my belly. I did it for almost a month. I began checking my weight on the electronic weighing machine after returning from my morning walk. What I noticed is that checking my weight daily is also not accurate, as I can’t find any weight change even when I stop eating sugar. However, I still want to continue doing so because it is probably quite early for me to get results.
Lots of great tips and exercises were given for me to follow.
A lot of great tips have been given to me to reduce my waist size. Most of them are very convincing about incorporating aerobic exercise into your daily routine. Reduce refined carbs. Add fatty fish to your diet. Start the day with a high-protein breakfast. Drink enough water. Reduce your salt intake. Consume soluble fiber. Get more sleep.
Others have even told me to eat special foods every day to burn calories, like “going on a high-protein diet.” Add vinegar to your diet. Eat more healthy fats. Drink healthier beverages. Fill up on fiber. Cut down on refined carbs.
There are both surgical and nonsurgical methods to reduce the tummy.
Even while going through the latest techniques being employed for abdominal reductions, I came to know that there are both nonsurgical and surgical ways to reduce the tummy. If we want to lose belly fat without surgery, non-invasive fat loss may be the way to go. The most popular non-surgical fat loss option is Cool Sculpting. Also known as “fat freezing,” Cool Sculpting removes fat cells by freezing them to death.
And of course, in surgical procedures, two types of tummy tucks are performed. Blepharoplasty is classified into two types: total and partial blepharoplasty, also known as small-area blepharoplasty. Total abdominoplasty involves vertically strengthening your abdominal muscles to remove fatty tissue, loose skin, and stretch marks. Partial or mini-abdominoplasty surgery aims to remove fat from the area below the navel. You are a good candidate for this operation if you have bulging or loose skin as a result of weight loss, repeated pregnancies, or a lack of success with diet and exercise.
Diet control and certain exercises are mainly the safest way to reduce your tummy.
After learning about all of the procedures available for reducing the bulging belly, I simply pray to God that none of them will be used in my case and that I stick to the diet and exercises I’ve already begun. I get horrified even with the word “surgery.” So you can understand my predicament if I were to undergo an invasive procedure such as abdominoplasty.
Taking your favorite snacks is the answer.
That’s right, I eat a lot of snacks during the day, except for the heavier ones, which we eat twice a day. As far as I understand it, snacks are foods that differ from the heavier meals we normally eat. The following six snacks are my favorites and are readily available to me:
1. Mixed nuts:
Nuts the ideal nutritious snack. Nuts are an ideal nutritious snack, providing the perfect balance of healthy fats, protein, and fiber.
Besides being delicious, they are associated with many health benefits and are very filling. Studies also show that, despite their higher calorie and fat content, eating nuts in moderation can help you lose weight.
You can choose from a variety of nuts, including walnuts, almonds, Brazil nuts, hazelnuts, pine nuts, macadamia nuts, cashews, and pistachios.
Because they don’t require refrigeration, they’re a splendid choice for on-the-go snacking. Be mindful of your portion sizes and try to eat around 1 ounce or 1/4 cup.
2. Apple slices with peanut butter:
Apples and peanut butter are a natural pair, both in terms of nutrition and taste.
However, apples are fruits rich in fiber. Peanuts provide healthy fats, plant-based protein, and fiber—nearly all of the filling nutrients you should look for in a snack.
By combining apples with peanut butter, you’ll enjoy a crunchy and creamy snack. Try adding a little cinnamon for extra flavor.
Note that many brands of store-bought peanut butter contain added sugars and oils. Check the ingredient list and choose one that contains only peanuts and salt.
3. A piece of banana:
Healthy snacking doesn’t have to be complicated. Just one fruit can make you extremely satisfied.
Easy-to-eat and portable fruits include bananas, apples, pears, grapes, grapefruit, and oranges.
Fruit contains fiber and minerals and is a great snack. To make it more satisfying, combine your fruit with nuts or yogurt.
4. Hard-boiled eggs:
Eggs are one of the best health and weight-loss foods you can eat. They are incredibly nutritious, thanks to their protein content.
Although high cholesterol levels have given them a bad name for many years, recent studies suggest that moderate egg consumption—defined as 3 to 4 eggs per week—can be beneficial for hardening arteries, a risk factor for heart disease.
Hard-boiled eggs are a convenient way to enjoy a high-protein snack on the go. Save the yolks for important nutrients like vitamin D and choline.
5. Popcorn:-
But the popcorn looks thin—not the popcorn covered with butter and salt.
Popcorn provides fiber and less than 100 calories in a rich 3-cup serving
Add flavor with a little olive oil, Parmesan, or nutritional yeast.
6. Roasted chickpeas:
Roasting chickpeas helps turn them into a crunchy and delicious snack.
Chickpeas are a significant source of fiber and vegetable protein.
You can make your own or find roasted chickpeas in the snack section of your grocery store.
When my next craving hits, I’ll aim for nutritious whole foods for my day instead of less nutritious, highly processed options. Having healthy options at my fingertips can keep me satisfied, add more nutrients to my diet, and aid in weight management that way.
With such snacks, we can easily keep control of heavier diets:
With the above-selected snacks, we can easily avoid the heavier diets, and our dependence on them would also be significantly reduced. As a result, the possibility of consuming heavier and more nutritious foods would be minimal. It stands to reason that strict abstinence from heavier foodstuffs would promote weight loss.
In the end, my own “discipline” will be what gets me the results I want. Be aware that if you are overweight and your belly is protruding as well, this equally applies to you.
