How to Keep Your Stomach Flat While Enjoying Your Weekend

Many people worry that after all the hard work they've done throughout the week to

achieve a flat stomach, sticking to their weight loss and exercise programs, that they risk undoing that work on the weekend. The question people often ask is will eating out and drinking to much over the weekend threaten my good work during the week?

The short answer is YES if the wrong foods and drinks are consumed in excess. Now before you think that means you can't enjoy a beer or two, or consume any junk food on the weekend, then waitI have some good news.

There are ways you can still enjoy a good social time while not undoing the hard work you've been working on all week.

Rather than drink full-strength beers, try the light beers. Combine low calorie or calorie-free club soda with the alcohol this will lower your overall calorie intake. As alcohol has about 7 calories per gram, and contains no beneficial nutrients such as vitamins and minerals, you are consuming "empty" calories. You DO NOT WANT to consume excessive empty calories if you want to keep keep losing the fat from your belly.

Sodas are no better. They are often made with high-fructose corn syrup and, recently a Princeton University research team found that, in addition to causing significant weight gain in lab animals, long-term consumptions of high-fructose corn syrup also led to abnormal increases in body fat, especially in the abdomen. If you're trying to lose that excess belly fat and achieve a trim look- then pass on the sodas!

If you are eating out then it is DO NOT EAT food that has been deep fried. Deep fried foods are loaded with trans fats (unsaturated fats). Worldwide, health authorities recommend that your consumption of trans fat is limited to only trace amounts. So, rather than order that burger and fries, replace the fries or potato chips with steamed vegetables or a side salad. A burger, or grilled chicken sandwich won't ruin all your hard work on the abs.

If you have overdone it then try this fantastic fat-burning exercise throughout the week. Run as hard and as fast as you can for 50-100 yard dashes, rest 1-2 minutes, and repeat 5-10 times. This exercise will only take you between 10 to 20 minutes and you'll see the weight drop off and a much flatter stomach.
