What You Should Eat to Lose Belly Fat

You've probably heard this countless times before but you can't outwork a bad diet. If you're under the impression that you have to cut out entire macronutrients like carbohydrates, you don't. According to Tiffany, you don't have to make any drastic changes at all.

"Don't avoid anything," Tiffany said. "Just eat a little less of the foods you think you shouldn't." This includes things like candy and cake, she explained. Conversely, eat more foods like vegetables, lean proteins, and fruit. "Tiny changes make a huge difference and they're usually sustainable."

Some experts recommend eating in a calorie deficit to lose fat, but Tiffany said you can either increase your activity or decrease your caloric intake to promote fat loss. If you aren't into calculating your daily caloric intake, simply increasing your activity level is enough. "If you do both, in moderation, you get a better bang for your buck," she said.
