Chilling on the #AfternoonGroove with A’Cube yesterday, he shared quite a lot of things, but what caught my attention, as well as yours for sure was his latest decision to improve his diet… A decision that we all should look into, not just because DJ A’Cube says so, but because that’s part of God’s big plan for us.
Beloved, I pray that in all respects you may prosper and be in good health, just as your soul prospers. [3 John 1:2]
When people refer to their pot belly they generally mean the excess fat around their waistline. There are many home remedies you can use to boost fat burn on your belly. Many of them will already be in your cupboard or refrigerator. Excess belly fat puts you at a risk for a host of health conditions, including diabetes and heart disease.
WHAT CAUSES POT BELLIES
Different people experience pot belly for different reasons. Some people may have weak abdominal muscles or they bloat easily. Other people have constipation problems. Women who have been pregnant may get a pot belly at random times based on the foods they eat because their stomach muscles have been overstretched and will now bloat more easily.
It is always easier to get a pot belly than it is to get rid of it. If you eat right and exercise regularly you may be able to avoid getting a pot belly to begin with. Once you get one you need to be extra vigilant with your daily nutrition and activity levels.

REDUCE YOUR CALORIE INTAKE
Processed foods, too many carbohydrates in general, all forms of sugar, artificial sweeteners, caffeine, trans fats and soda all stress up the liver and a stressed liver cannot properly maetabolize fat. Cut down 500 to 1,000 calories from your daily diet and experience 1-2 pounds of weight loss.
Drink 100 percent cranberry juice or cran-water. Cranberries are high in organic acids that act as digestive enzymes. Fish oil is one great source of omega-3 fatty acids. Take 6g, which is an overflowing tablespoon, or eat salmon or mackerel twice a week… Cook with olive oil or try sunflower or safflower oil. Eat more of avocados and olives, sip lemon or lime juice in hot water daily.

EXERCISE + GOOD POSTURE
Any aerobic exercise that causes you to sweat is going to help you burn calories and fat. Swimming, walking, and general aerobic routines are all good ways to get rid of a pot belly stomach. You can also work on getting rid of your pot belly stomach throughout the day. Keep yourself in good posture at all times to reduce the appearance of a pot belly.
You can try blowing out all the air in your lungs and pull your tummy in. The beauty of this exercise is that you carry it out everywhere and anywhere without ever going to the gym. It is so discreet that people will not even notice you exercising even when you are waiting for the office lift or at your desk at work.
Exercises every other day and when combined with a fat loss routine of a proper diet, weight training and cardio exercises, you will get that flat stomach look in no time along with that glorious six pack abs.
But like DJ A’Cube said, why search for six-packs when you can have one full pack… LOOOOOOL.
The Afternoon Groove with A’Cube airs every weekday from 12noon to 4pm.
