How to get rid of stubborn belly fat?

I dont know what it is natrually im a size 0 - 1 & im 16 years old. ive been told im so lucky and im so skinny and people are envious, but i dont see whats there to be jealous over because i have belly fat that when i sit down it becomes four small rolls and its so DISGUSTING, does anyone know what i can do to get rid of them, or at least make them go down a little bit?

It is true trhat some people have particular trouble losing belly fat, but it is not impossible. Of course there is the liposuction option and despite what previous posts have said to the contrary, it is by and large a very safe cosmetic surgery.

Since you are sixteen however, unless your parents are willing to spring for your lypo, you'll simply have to lose it the old fashion way, diet and exercise.

First of all, when I say 'diet' I don't mean starving yourself. If you have no weight issues, then the problem is very likely WHAT you eat, not how much. There are many types of food that will cause you to retain water and this can be especially prevalent in women, who tend to retain water anyway from (first and formost) their menstral cycle and the hormonal changes it causes. Most women then tend to exhibit this water retention in their gut and thighs. To minimize the effects and reduce water retention you should stay away from foods that are high in simple sugars (candy, cake, soft drinks, etc.) and foods high in salt (sodium) content. Furthermore you should be eating five small meals a day rater than three larger ones, and breakfast should alwats be your biggest meal of the day and dinner your smallest. Finally, you should ALWAYS have a waterbottle in hand. Ironically, and totally counter to common sense, increased water intake aids in digestion, speeds up metabolism, and decreases water retention.

As to exercise, you should come up with a routine that suites you and that you can stick with. It should include elements of both aerobic exercise (like aerobics, running, dance, biking, etc.) AND anaerobic (weight training, sit ups, push ups, resistance training/stretch cords, etc.). The absolute best exercise for you is interval swimming (short intence sets followed by rest repeated many times as apposed to steady lap swimming) since swimming is both aerobic and anaerobic.

If you do weight training, you can train for tone rather than bulk. Doing weights doesn't mean you have to become a gladiator. Bulk training is few reps at high weight. What you want is many reps (3-5 sets of 20-25 reps each) on low weight (but heavy enough that it starts burning toward the end of the second set). What many body builders do too to reduce fat around their middles that you might try is that they wrap their middles thoroughly with saran wrap before weight training. This increases your body tempurature as you work out and burns more fat in the same amount of time specifically targeting your gut area. Additionally the more muscle you build, the more calories it takes your body to maintain it, so the longer you do weight training (as in weeks, months, years) the faster your body will burn off fat.

There are loads of gyms that will take 16 year olds and older. Some national chains are Bally's, Golds Gym, and Powerhouse Gym. There are also tons of local YMCA's and YWCA's which tend to be a lot cheaper to say nothing of all the smaller private gyms there are around.

Hope that helps!
