Lose Belly Fat Now

Having tried all of the celebrity diets going at one time or another, the one thing that I did that paid the most dividends in terms of permanent weight loss was to eat nothing but fruit every day before noon. If you do this there is every chance you will lose weight and keep it off permanently.

The theory is that when you eat nothing but fresh fruit before noon, you are not putting an undue burden on your elimination system so that your body eliminates waste properly. If you have a heavy breakfast, your body uses valuable energy in digestion that it should be using on elimination. I found this to be highly accurate. By just eating lots of fresh fruit I definitely felt "lighter" and had more energy than the days I used to have a coffee and a bagel with cream cheese every breakfast time.

The other important rule is that you should not eat anything else except fruit during the hours before noon. If you do this, the result will be that the contents of your stomach will start to ferment. The knock-on effect of this is that the body will need more energy to digest the food. Fruit only stays in your stomach for a very short period of time. Usually thirty minutes maximum. This is how long it is appropriate to wait before eating anything else. I usually go for lunch at around 12.30 so this routine works perfectly.

Another way of seeing rapid weight loss is to combine the fruit-before noon regimen with a policy of not mixing carbohydrates with proteins in the same meal. There has been lots written about this subject but it basically follows a simple principle laid down in the 1930s by the renowned nutritionist Hay. The basic idea is that concentrated protein causes acidic gastric juices to be produced whereas carbohydrates cause alkaline gastric juices to be produced in the stomach. If you have a mix of the two, Hay argues, you neutralize the pH in your stomach which means your body needs to spend much more energy in digestion that it would if the foods were kept separate. You can find much more on the topic of proper food combining by just doing a quick Google search. I have found that this way of eating combined with fruit only before noon has been very beneficial both to my weight and my general energy levels.
