Want to lose weight? Heres what you can do to lose belly fat easily in 2 weeks - Times Now

That belly fat is giving you problems. You struggle to fit into your favorite pair of jeans and it makes you more likely to develop cardiovascular conditions and type 2 diabetes.

Having a belly fat that measures more than 40 inches or 102 cm in men and 35 inches or 88 cm in women can be considered as abdominal obesity. Getting rid of that excess fat in the abdominal area will not only make you look better but also make you feel better about your health.

There are several ways to lose belly fat. Health experts recommend a combination of exercise and diet to speed up fat loss.

But you can speed up the process by adding certain drinks to your diet. These drinks promise to improve metabolism and burn fat fast, especially when consumed before bedtime.

Weight Loss Drinks Before Sleep

Cucumber, Lemon and Parsley Combo Drink

This beverage can easily be done in the kitchen. It does not require any special ingredients and everything you would need may already be in your refrigerator.

Cucumber is known for being low in calories and having zero fat. It provides good amounts of fiber, which could help reduce bloating, according to Times Of India.

Another important ingredient in your weight loss drink is parsley. This natural diuretic contains vitamins A, B, C and K and helps manage water weight and retention during sleep.

Complete your drink with lemon for additional taste. It could also help improve gut health by supporting functions of the digestive system.

To create your weight loss drink, simply mix lemon juice with water, diced cucumber and a bunch of parsley. Blend the ingredients and drink the juice after your dinner.

Ginger Tea

If you prefer a warm drink before sleep, you can try ginger tea. One hot cup per night could help improve digestion, reduce bloating and fix other stomach issues.

Having a good digestive health may help speed up weight loss since the body eliminates more toxins and absorbs essential nutrients.

Drinks To Avoid To Lose Belly Fat

For faster fat loss, you should avoid drinking products with high amounts of sugar. Added sugar is unhealthy and contributes to excess fat in the belly and liver, according to Healthline.

Studies showed that sugar-sweetened beverages could increase childrens risk of obesity by 60 percent. Avoid soft drinks, fruit juices and high-sugar sports drinks.

As it turns out, not that likely.

Ever heard of kummerspeck? Kummerspeck is the word for the German concept of gaining weight due to emotional eating. Literally translated, kummerspeck means grief bacon.

We all know that sometimes people use food to cope with negative emotions. Emotional eating comforts us; it temporarily makes us feel better and even distracts us from the sadness or grief, but emotional eating leads to unhealthy eating habits, health problems if were not careful, and of course weight gain.

Relationship breakups are a common source of negative emotions and emotional eating (weve all heard the cliche about grabbing a pint of ice cream after a breakup some of us have been that cliche), and so researchers from Penn State and Albright College dove into the concept of kummerspeck to find out if people are more likely to gain weight after a relationship breakup.

Turns out, theyre not.

However, it should be noted that in the second survey, a small number of women who reported having a tendency to emotionally eat did also report having gained weight after a breakup.

So, unless you already have a bad habit of emotionally eating, its probably safe to say youre not at major risk for weight gain or other health problems if you reach for that bag of chips or box of chocolate or even make a fast food run or two in the couple of days following a breakup. Most likely, kummerspeck wont get its claws in you.

Out of curiosity, lets conduct our own mini survey.

Talk to me! Whats been your experience with weight gain (or loss) after a breakup? Or, emotional eating in general? How do you combat the urge, or get yourself back on track with healthy foods?

Weve all read and heard that we are what we eat, but can just transforming your eating habits help you lose weight? According to 27-year-old Nimit Agarwal, not only can healthy eating habits kick-start your weight loss journey but it can also effectively reduce your bodys stress levels.

In April 2017, I fainted in my office and was forced to visit a doctor by my colleagues. The doc checked my bodys vitals, and was shocked. I weighed 84 kgs, my BMI was at 32 and my blood pressure was touching 160. I also had high sugar and very high cholesterol. The doc told me that these elevated symptoms are very similar are commonly found in the reports of an unhealthy 60-year-old man and not someone who's in their 20s, he says.

This statement shocked and surprised me! The doc also told me that if I didn't start taking care of my health soon, I'd be preparing my own death bed," he adds. "This one day changed my life. I knew I had to do whatever I could to get fit.

During this time, I was working 14 hours a day, neither did I have the time to workout nor the energy, so to lose weight, I focussed on the one thing I couldeating healthy. In a years time, by sticking to the below weight loss plan, I trimmed from 84 kgs to 65 kgs."

To start eating healthier, I made the below four changes in my regular diet and indulged in zero cheat meals. During this phase, I also rarely exercised. My weight loss was only a result of sticking to my four self-imposed changes.

1. Always have breakfast on time. This breakfast has to comprise more protein and less carbs (always).

2. Completely cut sugar from your meals, including refined sugars, in the form of sweets, beverages and chocolates.

3. Say no to fried food (I gave up on samosas and kachoris, which I used to like and savour the most).

4. Have an early, light dinner. Id have my last meal 4 hours before I went to sleep. This meal only included vegetables, dal and a bowl of yogurt (no roti or rice at all).

Notably, its been one and a half years since I lost the 19 kgs, and I have been able to maintain my weight at 65 kgs by indulging in the below exercise routine and diet plan:

- 2 days of strength training (HIIT for 60 mins focusing on complete body workouts without any external weights)

- 1 day of Yoga (For stretching the body and relaxing the muscles from long workouts)

- I also make it a point to go swimming or cycling once a week.

- 3-4 days of running (One fast running session for almost 45 minutes on a medium pace for 2 days. On the third day, I run for 60 mins, I also go for one long distance run for about 2-3 hours on weekends)

Since Ive been running for almost 18 months now regularly, it has helped me morph into a long distance runner. And, so far, I have completed 11 half marathons including one of India's highest and most challenging one in Ladakh.

"Also, now, I have relaxed the food restrictions I placed on my diet during my weight loss regime. But, I am still very conscious of what I eat. For example, I don't eat any sugar at all. I also drink a lot of water and ensure my food is rich in protein, good carbs and fibers."

Breakfast: An omelette made from 4 egg whites + sprouts + upma/porridge/poha

Lunch: A bowl of dal + two types of green vegetables + a bowl of curd + a small portion of brown rice + 2 egg whites

Dinner: A bowl of dal + one bowl of green vegetables + 1 bowl of curd + 1 chapati

"I learned six very important lessons while trying to lose weight, I think they may be able to help you too:

1. Be selfish - Health is the only thing that you should be selfish about. It should be prioritised over everything else. You are at the center of your universe and everybody else in your life is a planet revolving around you. If the center of the universe is not stable or healthy, no matter how much you try to shine or hold the planets together, the universe will collapse.

2. It's not about weight loss - There is no direct correlation between weight and health. You can have a person with perfectly normal weight who is in bad health and vice versa. So don't only think about losing weight, think about good health. Healthy life is a continuous, non-stop process which needs to be practiced equally by everyone, irrespective of their weight or age.

3. Don't wait - Don't wait for a signal. You won't always be as lucky as I was to get a warning. There is no right age or time to start working on your health.

4. Have patience - I didn't do anything extreme; I took one step at a time and kept on adding over these steps. This is a marathon not a sprint. Marathoners run till the age of 60; sprinters cannot run after 30. Don't overdo anything. Start with the thing which is easiest for you. The thumb rule is to ask yourself if you can do it for 12 months?

5. Make process goals and not outcome goals - One common mistake we all make is set 'outcome goals surrounding our weight, tummy size, bicep size, six packs, blood pressure, sugar, etc. I made the same mistake but was quick to realise that it has two problems. First, it is very difficult to achieve constant progression and keep yourself motivated to achieve these goals. For example, you may not lose weight everyday as it is the result of a lot of different things (some of which you cannot even control). So, as soon as we start seeing a dip in progression, we will feel sad and disappointed, leading to a complete stop. Secondly, once we achieve 'outcome goals', we tend to stop. Like I explained earlier, leading a healthy life is a lifelong process and it cannot just be a phase. That's why you should have process goals that are long term.

- You should be able to track these goals regularly

- You cannot have any negative progression until you stop doing it

- Push your limits. The time frame to achieve your goals should be infinite

6. Make noise - Create a sense of peer pressure around you by sharing your goals and the whole journey with your friends, family members or even the outside world using social media.

How to lose weight like this guy who lost 19 kgs by making these 4 minor adjustments in his diet - GQ India - What a man's got to do

A mum who once spent 1,000 a month on takeaways and fancy meals has unveiled her incredible weight loss journey after shedding 3st in just 14 weeks.

Corrie DSilva started to pile on the pounds in September 2016 after getting married and recovering from a severe back injury.

The 40-year-olds frame rose to a size 16, where she tipped the scales at 13st 5lbs before her transformation.

She was on medication after the back surgery and doctors told her she would never be able to train at the gym again.

But Corrie, from Cheshire, completely transformed her lifestyle by swapping her fast food and restaurant habits for healthy homemade meals.

Combined with a mixture of strength and cardio training, the mum-of-two saw her weight drop by 3st in just three months to weigh 10st 2lbs.

The company director said: Back then, I really lacked confidence and my back injury became an excuse not to exercise.

After surgery, I suffered from horrific pain and doctors told me to take it easy, meaning I could no longer train and could only go swimming and do yoga.

The turning point for me was when we moved house in May 2019 I realised I was so busy with the children and my business that I had picked up lots of bad habits.

I was doing damage to myself by snacking on crisps and sausage rolls and drinking a full bottle of wine to myself every night and felt exhausted when I should have been enjoying my new house.

My husband Nick and I liked to socialise a lot and would probably spend the best part of 1,000 a month just on eating out and drinking, along with buying takeaways.

Corrie began to make a change in May 2019, where she began to eat healthier and got a personal trainer despite being told to not train.

She started training twice a week at Ultimate Performance in Cheshire, completing strength workouts including shoulder presses and sled drags.

The mum also gave up drinking for the 14-week programme and scrapped takeaways in favour of healthy options like vegetable soup for lunch and salmon for dinner.

She added: At the end of my transformation, I felt like the person I always wanted to be, it was amazing to get myself back and I felt mentally better too.

Its been a life-changing experience for me and I felt like my PT wrapped me up in cotton wool for three months and genuinely cared about my progress.

My fitness venture has rubbed off on my children and husband too it feels great to be able to get out more and be active with them, and its given me a different lease of life.

Corries diet before:

Breakfast: Skipped

Lunch: Sandwich or panini with crisps

Dinner: Ready meals or pizza/Thai takeaways or meals out

Snacks: Crisps and sausage rolls

Corries diet after:

Breakfast: High protein scrambled eggs with bacon/on bagel or oats

Lunch: Chicken with vegetable soup or salad

Dinner: Salmon with lots of vegetables (sometimes with rice or potatoes)

Snacks: Yoghurt or fruit

Mum who spent 1k a month on junk food shares incredible weight loss in 14 weeks - Daily Star

Instagram After eight years of depression, joint pain, and extreme weight gain, Hannah Day took control of her health using Beachbody workout videos and portion control.My name is Hannah Day (hannah_day28). I am 32 years old and live in Machesney Park, Illinois. After nearly a decade of health problems, I turned my life around. Using a workout series that kept me hooked and really watching my portions. My results? I lost 117 pounds in less than a year and went from a size 22 to a size 2.

I remember going to an amusement park and not being able ride with my kids because I couldn't fit in the seat. Another time, I tried to take them sledding but I couldnt make it up the hills. Over the years it hit me: Public outings were becoming a problem, and I was missing out on special experiences and memories.

Eventually my issues went beyond extreme weight gain. I began to suffer from excessive fatigue, brain fog, joint pain, and depression. How did I get here? The truth is, doctors still haven't been able to formally diagnose me. But after doing some online research, I found a group of women with breast implant illness whose symptoms sounded similar to mine. I made the personal decision to get my breast implants removed. I felt like that was the right move for me.

Afterward, I did notice most of my symptoms subsided. All but one, that is...the weight gain aspect. I knew that aspect of my life would take some serious work.

I was so lost, though. I didn't know where to start. I didnt want to go to the gym because I was mortified at how big and unhealthy I had become. I stayed away from people as much as I could. My eating habits were horrible. In the throes of my depression, I used food to help me cope with life. It was comforting and helped me de-stress.

Thats when my friend told me about Beachbody. She showed me the on-demand workouts that I could do in the comfort of my own home and introduced me to their nutrition programsy. I'd never had tools like this before. And now? I had three or four new and easy ways to start my weight-loss journey. Game changer.

So I tried to turn my embarrassment into motivation. At 237 pounds, I knew that losing weight wasn't going to be easy. But I wanted to be present with my family. I had become so embarrassed of my weight that sometimes I would refuse to go outside. After my breast implant removal, I got serious about getting in shape. I wanted to be me again and 100 percent healthy. And I wanted to be able to do things with them and not be held back by my weight.

I completely changed my eating habits with Ultimate Portion Fix and Shakeology. UPF taught me what to eat and at what portions. It showed me I could eat from every food group (yay!) as long as I monitored how much.

I thought I'd feel deprived or hungry. But I didn't. I was eating clean healthy foods. And I eventually learning that food was meant to fuel my body, not to feed my emotions.

Instead of binging on fast food like I used to, here's what I'll eat in a day now:

I wasn't ready to step into the gym, so I stuck with my Beachbody workouts instead. I did seven rounds of the program's 21-Day Fix, which included a 30-minute workout every day involving both cardio and weights.

When I first started I had to modify *every* move. But with each round, I become stronger and built up my strength and endurance to the point where I no longer had to modify. And in 11 months, I managed to lose 117 pounds and dropped 20 pants sizesgoing from a 22 to a 2. Since my weight loss, Ive been focused on toning and gaining muscle with the programs LIIFT4, 80-Day Obsession, and Morning Meltdown 100.

If you're someone who wants to lose weight but you still have a long way to go, please don't give up on yourself. A little progress every day leads to big results. So try shooting for the baby steps first. I've learned that there is something more important than the intensity of your triceps dip, or how well you mastered a push-up: consistency. So continue to push on and remember that every little step counts.

Lastly, I had to reframe this entire experience as a lifestyle change. and not just as losing weight. Because the truth is, losing weight helped me in so many other categories beyond the physical. It changed my entire life.

'At 237 Lbs., I Was Embarrassed To Go To The Gym. So I Did An At-Home BeachBody ProgramAnd Lost 117 Lbs.' - msnNOW

LSU safety JaCoby Stevens (3) runs the other way with an interception intended for Mississippi State wide receiver Stephen Guidry (1) during the first half of their NCAA college football game in Starkville, Miss., Saturday, Oct. 19, 2019. (AP Photo/Rogelio V. Solis)(Photo: The Associated Press)

BATON ROUGE JaCoby Stevens was just 13 when LSU's eight-game losing streak against Alabama started on Jan. 9, 2012, but he remembers each one and some before that, too.

Stevens, a junior safety for LSU, was born and raised in Murfreesboro, Tennessee, but his parents Jeremy and Dionne Stevens are from Crowley, along with his grandparents, and there are relatives in Baton Rouge and Bogalusa.

So, he knows all about LSU's awful octet as the Tigers (8-0, 4-0 Southeastern Conference) prepare for their game at Alabama (8-0, 5-0 SEC) at 2:30 p.m. Saturday on CBS that matches two No. 1 teams Alabama in the USA TODAY poll and LSU in the Associated Press poll.

Auburn Lessons: Odd defense used by Auburn may help LSU vs. Bama

"Oh, I know the history better than some of the guys that are from Louisiana," said Stevens, who is second on the team in tackles this season with 49 and has two sacks and two interceptions."Oh definitely, I knew they were losing to Alabama for a while when I came here. A lot of guys even from out of state know that."

It's a burden, though most of the losses are obviously inherited.

"Last time we beat them, guys like Tyrann Mathieu were here," Stevens said. "That's a long time."

Mathieu, a Kansas City Chief who is in his seventh year in the NFL and one of its top defensive backs,had five tackles in LSU's last win over Alabama,9-6 in overtime on November 5, 2011, in Tuscaloosa, when LSU was No. 1 and Alabama was No. 2.

LSU safety Eric Reid, who remains in the NFL, as well, with Carolina, made a critical play when he intercepted a pass from receiver Marquis Maze out of the Wildcat formation intended for tight end Michael Williams a yard away from an Alabama touchdown that would have put the Tide up 12-6.

Column on LSU-Bama Talk: Truth or dare?

"Did he pick the ball off? Or did the tight end catch the ball. I was only 13, but I remember that game like it was yesterday," Stevens said.

A 21-0 loss followed in the national championship game two months later, and LSU has not beaten Alabama since.

"That's what motivated me," Stevens said. "When I first came here, my goal was to beat Alabama."

LSU was 0-for-6 against Alabama when Stevens signed with the Tigers in February of 2017 after being recruited by secondary coach Corey Raymond and head coach Ed Orgeron.

Catching Delpit: JaCoby Stevens making a name for himself, too

"When I signed here, I told Coach O and Coach Raymond, 'I want to beat Alabama,'" he said. "And we have an opportunity to do that. We're at their place Saturday, but I feel like we have the personnel to do so. We're going to come out and give it our best shot."

LSU lost at Alabama, 24-10, in 2017 when Stevens was a freshman and 29-0 last season in Tiger Stadium.

"This may seem cliche and like we're going to keep saying it, but tackling will be huge," Stevens said. "We had way too many missed tackles last year. Sometimes, we had the play called to stop them on third down, but we didn't tackle. If we tackle better than we did last year, we can have a shot."

Stevens, like Orgeron, is convinced Alabama quarterback Tua Tagovailoa will play after having ankle surgery on Oct. 20 following a high ankle sprain against Tennessee on Oct. 19. Alabama coach Nick Saban has said Tua's status will be a game-time decision. Tua has been practicing. He completed 25 of 42 passes for 295 yards and two touchdowns and rushed for a 44-yard touchdown in Alabama's win over LSU last season.

"Tua knows where he wants to go with the ball right away, and he's going to get it there," Stevens said. "He has the arm strength. He can get the ball out fast, and he can read coverages pre-snap. He's very decisive with the ball."

LSU did little with the ball against Bama last season as it was held to 196 yards and was shut out for the second time in three years in the series.

"We got our butts beat," said LSU senior quarterback Joe Burrow, who was 18 of 35 for 184 yards with an interception while being sacked five times.

Burrow, a graduate transfer to LSU in 2018, may be only 0-1 against Alabama, but he knows all about 0-8.

"I wouldn't say there's a mental hurdle," Burrow said Monday night. "We're really confident in our abilities. We're really confident in our coaching staff and our scheme, as well. We know the kind of offense we are. You try to approach it like any other game, but obviously it's not."

LSU junior linebacker Patrick Queen said, "This is a new team," which has been said often during the 0-for-8.

LSU at Alabama will be Presidential: President Trump to attend game

"We're not focused on anything from the past few years," he said. "We're just focused on what we can do now and trying to get to 9-0 is the next thing. And so, they're just another team in our way, and we've got to do what we've got to do."

Unlike in the past eight games, an LSU loss in this one may not end its national championship hopes. Considering the Tigers' strength of schedule that includes victories over No. 12 Auburn and No. 10 Florida, LSU could still reach the College Football Playoff if it wins out to end the regular season, should it lose to Alabama.

As Orgeron said Monday, should LSU win or lose Saturday, "There'll be bigger games down the road for us."

As far as what's behind LSU, though, it's a different story.

"No matter what happens, we want this one," Stevens said. "It's been too long."

Obese patients who undergo bariatric surgerybetter known as weight loss surgerymay reduce their likelihood of developing skin cancer, a new study has suggested.

The study, led by researchers from the University of Gothenburg in Sweden and published last week in JAMA Dermatology, found that obese patients who underwent procedures like gastric bypass or gastric band surgery to help them lose weight were less likely to develop skin cancer, including melanoma.

The research used data derived from observations of 4,047 obese adults who belonged to a study cohort known as the Swedish Obese Subjects. 2,007 patients underwent bariatric study, while 2040 did not have surgery but "received the customary treatment for obesity" from their doctors.

Researchers found that the surgery patients were significantly less likely to have developed skin cancer during the period between their enrollment in the study and the follow-up, an 18 year window on average.

This phenomenon did not appear to be influenced by how obese subjects were compared to other members of the cohort, nor was it influenced by how much they drank or if they smoked. If they had had surgery at all, their likelihood of skin cancer was reduced.

The study's subjects were mostly (71 percent) female, with an average age of 48 years old.

There are several types of gastric surgery, but according to the U.S. National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK), two of the most common in the United Statesand the ones which some of this study's Swedish subjects underwentare gastric bypass and banding.

In gastric bypass, a surgeon staples part of a patient's stomach to form a small pouch in the upper part of the organ. The surgeon then attaches the patient's small intestine to the pouch, allowing food to "bypass" most of the stomach. As a result, the patient's stomach has less room for food and becomes full sooner leading the patient to eat less.

"The bypass also changes gut hormones, gut bacteria, and other factors that may affect appetite and metabolism," according to NIDDK.

Surgery involving a gastric band works similarly, but involves a surgeon inserting "a ring with an inner inflatable band" around a person's stomach to achieve the effect of making the stomach smaller. This was the variant of the surgery most of the Swedish test subjects received.

A third type of surgery patients in the Swedish study received, vertical banded gastroplasty, uses both a staple and a band to make the stomach smaller, according to Johns Hopkins University.

More research into the relationship between weight loss, weight loss surgery and skin cancer will be necessary to show causality and to verify whether the findings are replicable, as the cohort used for the Swedish study was not necessarily representative of a larger population.

Multiple things can be true at once: for years, Kim Kardashian-West has posted a slew of questionable, sinister weight-loss spon-con Instagram, some for $1 million a pop, regardless of the vitriol her detox teas and dieting aids have inspired across the internet and in the heart of Jameela Jamil. Sometimes shell stop, but shell always return to promoting dangerous products that reassure consumers they will lose weight because it will make them shit their brains out, to borrow a phrase from actor Sophie Turner. Now, it looks like Kim is done apologizing and would like you to realize that all the proceeds from these deals go to her prison reform work, so being anti-Flat Tummy Co. is basically support for the prison industrial complex. Or something?

Kim told the New York Times on Wednesday that shes fast and loose with her acceptance of paid ads and shes even more willing to hawk goods that are off-brand because the money goes to her prison reform work. If I have a paid post that comes in and I think, O.K., well this can fund x amount of people that are behind bars, that can help free them with simple legal fees that they just cant afford, then that would be worth it to me, even if the post might be a little bit off-brand for me, she said. I really weigh out different things now than I used to.

There is perhaps no person less equipped to draw a line between what is appropriate and what is notexcluding, say, Kanye Westand Im not solely referring to the fact that Kim helped free Alice Marie Johnson and then had her model the new KKW shape wear line. It also strikes me as absolutely wild that one of the worlds wealthiest women feels the need to divvy up her income in such a way that she has a separate stream reserved solely for her activism. The reality appears to be much clearer: shes attempting to use her good work to justify her poor behavior online.

The rest is here:

Where in the body you will lose weight first depends on your genes. Your focus might be to lose your belly fat first, but this is not in your control. Human is a complicated creature, so it cannot be clearly said where you lose or gain weight. But in most of the cases, the first place you put on the fat is generally the last place it comes off from. If your arms have gained fat recently, then you lose that fat first from there once you start exercising and following a healthy diet. If you have a pear-shaped body frame than you might just get smaller in size, but will retain the same frame of the body. But remember the fat cells do not disappear, if you will increase your calorie intake you will again gain weight.

Mostly, losing weight is an internal process. You will first lose hard fat that surrounds your organs like liver, kidneys and then you will start to lose soft fat like waistline and thigh fat. The fat loss from around the organs makes you leaner and stronger.
