You have the best girlfriend. She is cute, funny, smart, sexy, and great to hang out with. If she didn’t have that little roll of belly fat, she might be perfect. You know she cares about it, all women do. How good would you look in her eyes if you found a way to help her lose her mind?

Come on, Mr. Sensitive, you know it would be to your advantage if you could help her find a way to get rid of that little roll of belly fat. Not only that, once you shed the fat, you’ll be much more confident in your body and don’t be surprised if your wardrobe expands to include skinny jeans and party dresses that show off that new flat stomach look. .

So you face two challenges.

First, how do you bring it up without upsetting her or making her feel bad? I have a great idea for that that I’ll share in a minute. Next, you need to really think about how to lose belly fat. What works and what doesn’t. The last thing you want to do is start this little game and have it blow up in your face because it doesn’t work.

Ok, how do you upload it? Well, take a look at your own stomach. Do you see any fat there? If you do, then you have the perfect advantage. Now it is you who is worried about your belly fat and you need their help to get rid of it. He wants you to become his support group.

So you mention it casually but with an obvious concern (you can pretend you are) about how you look and how you feel. Be sure to add the “how do you feel” part, as it will resonate with her. You have this plan in mind, but you know your weaknesses and you know you need a “partner” to help you carry it out.

This leads to grocery shopping together, more meals together, exercising together, and everything in between. Make it a win-win contest. Set goals, not time tables, but goals like losing half an inch, a full inch, etc. When you reach a goal, celebrate, but understand that you can’t celebrate unless you both reach the goal. This puts pressure on both of you.

Well, what if you have ripped abs and this strategy doesn’t work? So then you make up a client or a friend of a friend or whatever it is that did this very successfully. Yeah, it’s not the truth, but what the heck. Then ask her what she thinks about support groups and work on volunteering to be hers.

Now that you’re committed, you need to find the plan that burns fat and gets results. There are so many diets, machines and pills flooding our airways and the internet and the question is what works.

Well, the quick answer is losing belly fat and keeping it off isn’t about fad diets, pills, or “thigh buster” machines. Specifically, it’s not about sit-ups and squats or any other exercises that specifically target the abs.

It’s all about proper nutrition and full body workouts. You need to learn what to eat and that can be difficult on your own. The supermarket is full of “health foods” loaded with sugar and salt. Our regular diet is loaded with saturated fat. Knowing what the most efficient fuel for our bodies is is the most important part of losing fat and belly fat in particular.

Here is a very basic rule of thumb about burning fat. Muscles burn fat. Exercise produces more muscle tissue. Muscles burn fat. Do you see where I’m going here? The most efficient way to burn fat is to use as many large muscle groups as possible when you exercise. Now this can be a real heart beater, like mountain climbing squats, or a simple balance exercise. The level of intensity depends on your current condition and that of your girlfriend.

You can have fun with this. Make more appointments to exercise. Speaking of climbing mountains, have you ever climbed a wall? Many mega sports stores have climbing walls and it’s great. If you’re lucky enough to live where it’s hot, give two men kayaking a try. You get the idea.

Of course, for this to work, you really have to like this girl because it’s going to take as much effort from you as it does from her. But then there are those workout dates at her house that might just make it all worth it.
