A combination of three things, mindset, diet, and exercise is the secret to burning belly fat and getting a flat stomach. Like you, I‘ve encountered a lot of printed advice regarding diet and exercise, but I realize that in order to succeed, a person must have the right mental conditioning.

Before embarking on a change of lifestyle, you need to give yourself a check up from the neck up first. Understand why you want to be thinner, know the reasons why you aren’t thin, and mentally accept the things that you are going to have to change in order to get a flat stomach.

Having the proper diet is essential. You should eat a good breakfast, and a sensible lunch and dinner. If you drink coffee, try drinking it black instead of with sugar. For lunch, avoid fast food as much as possible. Fast food is packed with preservatives and calories, and eating too much of it is not healthy.

Don’t drink soda pop or anything that has a high sugar content. Instead, try drinks that have a natural sugar content, like fruit juices. Instead of eating potato chips with your lunch, try eating raw vegetables. You will have more energy, and you might just find them delicious.

It is OK for you to eat your favorite foods a couple times a week, but just eat less of them. Don’t go back for seconds. I think it is not so bad to snack after dinner, it just all depends on what you snack on. If you eat high fatty foods that are full of sugar, then they will stay in your system for a long time.

Exercise should be done everyday, but try not to do the same workout everyday. After a little more time, you might even find yourself jogging.

When I mention daily workouts, I‘m not referring to strenuous daily workouts. The hard exercises should be limited to at least every other day. When you have a day ‘off’ the routine, make tiny efforts like using a staircase rather than an escalator on the job, or try mowing the lawn.

You should take your time and go slow at first and as time goes by then you can increase your exercise to help you achieve your goal. Sit-ups are the way to go for this but don’t throw out your back. Always to 10 minutes of stretching before you get into the hard exercise. In addition, a number of different exercise apparatus are available to help work out your abs with little stress on your spine.

You should stay with an exercise program that you enjoy. Don’t fool yourself into believing that if you skip a workout, you can make it up next time. You will be coming up with all sorts of reasons why you don’t need or can not work out.

Buy a small scale and monitor your progress. When you see yourself losing weight you will be encouraged to keep going. If you find that you aren’t getting good results, try changing your eating habits and your workout routine. Remember, there are thousands of people who were once like you that made the mental commitment to burn belly fat and get a flat stomach.
