You can’t choose where you lose fat first (like from your thighs or belly), but if you want to shed it quickly, “you must expend more calories than you ingest,” Charles Seltzer, MD, DABOM, CEP, a board-certified bariatric physician based in Philadelphia, PA, told POPSUGAR. “The more rapidly you would like to lose fat, the larger the calorie deficit must be.” But if you read that as permission to radically cut calories, know this: overhauling […]

Carbs aren’t the only cause of belly fat, but if you eat a lot of them, they can certainly play a role. “If you eat any type of macronutrient in excess, you will gain weight,” Robert Milanes, MD, founder of Luminary MD in Irvine, CA, told POPSUGAR. Still, the way carbs are digested makes them particularly risky when you’re trying to lose weight or prevent weight gain. “Carbohydrates are broken down into glucose, which may […]

Carbohydrates are one of the most confusing aspects of nutrition. I say this as a dietician who has helped countless clients lose weight. And I understand the confusion. First you hear that you should eat fewer carbohydrates (or none at all!) and then you hear that you should eat more. On top of the mixed messaging, maybe you’ve even heard that you don’t actually eat carbohydrates, but you eat the foods that contain carbohydrates. Ill […]

So, while you can’t specifically target belly fat, reducing your carb intake may prevent you from putting on more, while bolstering your metabolism so you can lose […]

After all, losing weight is about burning more calories than you take in, and if you eat in a healthy calorie deficit, you will lose weight. We asked registered dietitians, fitness trainers, and doctors to weigh in […]
