😬 Here’s the truth: Belly fat is not OK. Every 10 cm increase in waist circumference is associated with an 11% higher risk of all cause mortality.

🩺 Women with a waist circumference over 80cm are more likely to develop obesity related health problems.

❌ This is NOT a vanity thing. Belly fat is an indicator of visceral fat, which surrounds organs deep in your belly.

📈 This type of fat releases inflammatory substances, affects hormones, causes insulin reisitance and is linked to diabetes, heart disease & hypertension.

Here are 3 simple things you can do to tackle your belly fat…

1️⃣ 📊 Create a calorie deficit - you need to burn more than you consume for your body to tap into fat stores.

You can either eat less in terms of calories, or burn more through increasing your activity. I’d recommend a bit of both 😉

2️⃣ 🥩 Eat 25-30g protein at every meal keeps you fuller for longer…Making your calorie deficit easier to stick to

Plus higher protein intake boosts metabolism for faster fat loss 🔥

3️⃣ 🏃‍♀️ Move your body more. How many hours a day do you sit on your arse? Sedentary time is highly linked with belly fat (PMID: 33168484). Simple changes you can make:

Aim for 8-10k steps per day
Lift weights 3x per week
Stand up and move for 5 mins, every hour

👉 Most important of all though, if you want to tackle that belly fat is getting yourself in a calorie deficit.
