If You Want Flat Abs, Never Do These Things

by Alexa Bjorkin

Picture yourself looking in the mirror at your clearly
defined abs thinking, "Wow, everything paid off. These abs
are really mine!" Can you hear your family and friends
telling you, "Wow, you look really great! What have you been
doing?" Do you know how great it's going to feel to be able
to walk confidently in public, 100% secure with yourself?

Well, I don't want to be the bearer of bad news, but if you
can't break your habit of doing these 2 things, it will
never happen.

- Fad Diets

Consuming Processed Foods

If you want to lose fat for good, do NOT get on a fad diet.


Here's how it is when you go on any of those "low carb",
"low fat", "low calorie", etc. diets; you deprive your
system of the vitamins and nutrients that keep it running
properly, especially your metabolism.

Fad diets cause your body to store extra body fat because
the rate that it burns calories is much slower to conserve
resources. Your stomach doesn't comprehend the difference
between not getting food to meet weight loss goals and not
getting food because there IS no food. This is why it goes
into "starvation mode".

After that, the body begins to convert muscle into energy
instead of converting stored fat into energy. The numbers on
the scale will drop and it will look like you've lost
weight, which you have, but not the right kind. A body
without muscle converts even more food into fat once your
body comes out of starvation mode. Your body no longer has
the lean muscle to burn calories (even when you're not
exercising) so it all gets stored as extra fat around your
body. That's why you always see significant weight gain
after someone gets off a fad diet.

Eliminate processed food if you ever want to uncover your
abdominals.

There are 2 main ingredients in processed foods that
actually make you fatter and cause all kinds of other health
problems.

Artificial trans fats. Those are found in baking
ingredients like hydrogenated and partially hydrogenated
oils, shortening, and hard margarine and are used to prolong
the shelf life and maximize profits.

What is the greatest health hazard? Coronary Heart Disease.


High fructose corn syrup (HFCS) is added to almost every
food on the shelves that needs sweetened. It extends the
shelf life of food as well without compromising taste. It's
sweeter than sugar so it can be used less and it's cheaper
to companies can buy more.

What is one major health concern? Obesity.

These two dangerous ingredients create a dramatic spike in
your blood sugar levels (also known as a "sugar high"),
which turn into those draining crashes. This dangerous cycle
actually increases your cravings for refined sugars and
simple carbs, which turn into extra body fat.

The way foods are processed now-a-days actually strips the
food of the healthy nutrients our bodies need! So what we
think we're eating is nowhere close to what we actually ARE
eating. That's why so many of us have additional health
problems. If we were to avoid fad diets and processed foods
by eating unprocessed foods close to their natural state, we
would get all the benefits from food AND have a loss in
weight!

Diet is EXTREMELY important when trying to get flat abs.
Everyone has a decent set of abs on them; they're just
hidden under layers of fat. In order to get VISIBLE abs, you
need to lower your body fat percentage by avoiding the
things above.
