I am 16, I weigh about 142. I am about 5′ 8″. I don’t like having this excess fat and I would like to lose stomach fat and turn it into muscle. I run 2 miles almost everyday. I drink a lot of water, and that’s all I drink. Does anyone have anything to add to what I do to lose fat faster and gain abs?
I’m not really trying to lose weight. Just lose the fat that I have. I want to turn it into muscle.
I’m sure you have heard that sit-ups and crunches are the way to do it, because those exercises make use of the abdominal muscles. However while it is absolutely true that sit-ups will strengthen the abdominal muscles and make you stronger in that area, and you may look thinner because your improved muscles hold in the fat better, this does not actually reduce belly fat in itself.
For a complete and long lasting solution to how to lose belly fat, we need to look at how the body works and how it is able to actually lose weight. The simple fact is that if you are going to lose weight – from any part of your body – you need regular exercise.
The fact that the most obvious and visible area of excess fat in your body is your belly does not alter this fact. When you do not exercise enough, or over-eat for a protracted period, one of the areas which naturally shows this excess more than others is the belly.
Similarly if you start to exercise and lose weight, it will disappear quickest from the same belly area. So no special “belly exercises” are actually necessary – just healthy exercise!
In addition to exercise, diet plays a critical role in losing or gaining weight. You can exercise but still find you are gaining weight if you are eating very badly or in large quantities. So both exercise and diet are required to get the full effect. You need to adjust your diet so that you are burning more calories than you consume, at this point you start to “burn” the calories stored as fat in your body. Obviously changing your diet to reduce the amount of calories being consumed helps, as does reducing the actual quantities of food you eat if you have been eating excessive amounts.
The key to losing belly fat is actually quite simple, and there really is no secret or special program – exercise, and eat less (and eat well). So the two key action points are firstly to reduce the calories you eat, with smaller amounts of food or lower calorie foods. Secondly every day perform some physical exercise. Do this and you WILL lose that belly fat!

I advise you to drink green tea 1-3 glasses per day green tea speeds up your metabolism

Do not eat candy or chips eat more greens or protein bars and avoid fast food and cut out fried food when you cook your meal oven cook your food do not fry it.
Chew gum because when you chew gum you do not pick at food for example if theirs some chips in you’re cupboard you go to them a think good damn they look good then you would say no i cant pick at them because I don’t wanna throw my gum away.
Do not eat after 6pm because before 6pm you can burn all you’re food off and if you eat after six it will lay on you’re stomach as you eat.
Do not eat before you go to sleep and drink a glass of water before you go to sleep
Eat spicy food, if you can because it speeds up you’re metabolism
Do not weigh you’re self everyday because it torments you,weight you’re self once a week ( every Monday )
You can safely lose 2 to 3 lbs. a week
Also for abs try, lay on your back, put your hand over your head on the floor you can even hold on to something heavy to keep you down and then lift your legs up and down it burns but it works really good!
