The best way to lose weight is eating healthy diet and avoiding all kinds of unhealthy, junk and processed foods. I suffered from belly fat especially from love handles in last few years but fortunately I was able to get rid of it effectively with some simple tips.
The best way to lose those love handles is to go on a diet that will shed pounds from your entire body. By diet, we mean a permanent eating regimen that stresses healthy foods – and not an over-abundance of them. There are plenty of diet books out there that will tell you how to balance your intake of protein, complex carbohydrates, fat, and fiber.
Any fat-burning aerobic workout is what you need, though you may also want to tone and firm that area where the handles are attached while you’re losing fat. Exercising the abs is good for that, but the best exercises for it are side bends and torso twists.
Exercises for Love Handles
Side Bends:
Stand straight with your knees slightly bent and your feet apart, then slowly lower the trunk a few inches to the left side then back up, and do the same thing again to the right side. Repeat until you’re sick and tired of doing them. Don’t bend forward or backward while you’re doing these as it would be bad for the spine.
Torso Twists:
While standing firmly with your feet a shoulder’s width apart, twist your torso slowly to the left side then to the right while at the same time keeping your hips straight and even. Again, there should be no bending. Don’t overdo it; twisting too far makes it easy to pull a muscle.
So If you're wondering how to get rid of love handles , just make your diet healthy and do regular exercise.
I was wondering what type of diet your pcp put you on for the medically supervised diet. I live in Louisiana, have Medicaid and my insurance requires a 6 month supervised diet. My pcp put me on the 3 military diet and gave me a list of foods to eat/avoid the 4 days off. If you haven't heard of the 3 day military diet it is a very low calorie diet usually used for fast weight loss.
I have search online and haven't see any other bariatric patients do this diet and was wondering if I should raise concern with my pcp and ask for a different diet plan or if I should stick with it for the 6 months.
Thanks!!!
Hi there,
I blend the Kaizen vanilla with Greek yogurt, natural pb, banana, milk, and ice. It's delicious (even better if you throw in some frozen strawberries).
I agree that it is terrible on its own.

I found it a Kroger's, Target, etc. Look in both the health food section and the peanut butter section. I bought the chocolate and peanut butter flavor which is pretty good!
Why don’t you just switch to Vita4Life and be done with it? You can get everything you need in their Multi daily. :/ Check them out and see what you think?

| A low- oxalate diet is exactly what it sounds like: a meal plan that consists of low doses of oxalate. On a low-oxalate diet, limit your oxalate consumption to between 40 mg and 50 mg a day. Read More : http://www.doctorshealthpress.com/digestion-articles/low-ox alate-diet-kidney-stones |
IMO - it is good, as long as it is natural, NSA - no sugar added. Fat is not the enemy... Carbs are.
But have in mind that PB or other nut butters are high calorie foods. And they are "sliders"..so it is easy to overeat.
I eat real PB rather seldom. Peanuts are not real nuts but legume - like beans. But I do eat almond butter.
PB make me crave more and more of it, almond butter - 1TB - and I am fine.

I found the easiest way to measure is by weight. I have a digital scale with a tare (zeroing) button. I put on the plate, tare throw on the protein, tare, throw on the veggies, tare throw on the carb (except I am not eating carbs anymore). You have to put the plate out to put food on anyways. I eat on a rotation, so I may have the same thing for 3 days in a row, then cook something new. Have it for a few days and so on.
Congrats on ditching the sweets! That is a major achievement you should be proud of!
My program doesn't really specify. Is real
peanut butter bad for us to eat?
