Yoga also brought down the waist circumference of those who participated. In a controlled study group of women with abdominal obesity, 12 weeks in an intensive yoga program significantly improved the health of study participants. Some of that weight would be from your waistline. Going at that rate, losing 10 pounds in 6 weeks is an attainable goal. Dropping weight more quickly than that would be extremely challenging and, for most people, not very healthy.Īiming to lose 1.5 to 2 pounds per week is a good goal. If your body is burning an average of 750 more calories per day than you consume, with calorie intake and exercise, you will lose 1 pound of fat every 4.6 days. Calorie restriction can help you achieve some of the deficit.ĭaily exercise can also burn between 400 to 500 calories, although it’s important to give your body at least one day of rest from exercise per week. Most nutrition experts agree that it takes a 3,500 calorie deficit to burn off one pound of stored fat in your body. A combination of healthy living, eating, and exercise will give you the best results. While exercises can tone and firm the muscles underneath your belly fat, you won’t see results at your waistline without overall weight loss that affects your whole body. So-called “spot reduction” that aims to reduce belly fat by abdominal exercise only has been proven to be ineffective.
The idea that you can lose weight from only one part of your body without losing weight overall is a myth. It’s important to understand how weight loss works.
