What should we do to get rid of the annoying belly fat in the shortest time possible? In fact, it is not difficult to successfully slim down your belly and get rid of your flabby belly fat. As long as you keep in mind the 7 principles and 4 belly slimming exercises, and make all-round changes in your daily diet, lifestyle habits, and exercise, you can achieve your goal successfully.

[Remember these 7 principles every day to help you lose weight without gaining weight]

Principle 1: Eat 3 fruits and 150 grams of vegetables a day

Eating more fruits and vegetables can not only make you feel full, but also help you reduce the strong desire for dessert. Additionally, eating more fiber-rich foods can effectively treat constipation, which is one of the main culprits behind your bloating. Therefore, eating more fruits and vegetables is also a good way to reduce belly fat!

Principle 2: Stay away from alcohol

Whether it's beer, cocktails, liquor, or other forms of alcoholic beverages, they may be the main culprit for your belly fat. Although alcohol does not contain fat, it is very high in calories. Just one 200ml glass of alcoholic beverage can contain 100 kcal of calories. Alcohol also increases your body's levels of cortisol, a powerful hormone that helps store fat in your belly.

Principle 3: Drink 9 glasses of water a day and avoid carbonated drinks

Drinking a glass of plain water, light honey water or water with added cellulose before breakfast can speed up gastrointestinal motility, expel waste and metabolites from the body from the previous night, and reduce the chance of developing a small belly. Don't drink too much water in one hour. Drinking a lot of water will cause edema of internal organs. Since "water flows to low places", excess water will gather in the waist and lower limbs, causing edema of the waist and lower limbs. In addition, try to drink less carbonated drinks and those high in sugar, which will make your belly swell like a balloon.

Principle 4: Sit up straight with your back straight

Losing weight is sometimes not as difficult as people think. Some people can lose some abdominal fat simply by correcting their sitting posture and tucking in their stomach and sticking out their chest. Always remind yourself to hold your chest up, tighten your abdomen, straighten your back, and sit like a bell. Even if you can't keep doing it all the time, just do it when you remember to do it. It is possible to lose 1 kg or more of excess fat from your belly.

Principle 5／Abdominal Meditation

A meditation practice focused on the abdomen can help you maintain both physical health and emotional well-being. Sit up straight with your shoulders back, head held high, hands relaxed on your knees, eyes closed, breathing relaxed, taking deep inhales and exhales. Try to feel how your "center" radiates warmth, strength, and beauty throughout your entire body. This kind of meditation promotes the body's metabolism and can achieve the effect of naturally tightening the abdomen.

Principle 6／Abdominal Massage

How to apply slimming cream to achieve significant results? When you apply slimming cream on your abdomen, remember to pull the abdominal skin slightly upwards and gently rotate it back and forth. Finally, use your palms to massage your abdomen in a clockwise direction so that the effective substances contained in the slimming cream can be fully absorbed. This not only helps to reduce belly fat, but also aids digestion.

Principle 7 / Rotational exercises to strengthen the abdominal muscles

The most traditional and effective exercise to strengthen abdominal muscles is hula hooping. This exercise is simple and easy to do, and there is no time or place limit. While watching TV, let the hula hoop rotate around the waist continuously for 5 minutes, which can strengthen the entire waist muscle tissue and improve the function of the heart and circulatory system.
