Why You're Struggling to Lose Your Lower Belly Pooch

Everyone's body has a different way of storing fat. The lower belly tends to be a place on the body where fat collects for many people due to:

1. genetics
2. diet
3. inflammation
4. lifestyle factors

Patience is critical when you want to get rid of your lower midsection flab, but there are several things that you can do to optimize the process.

How To Get Rid of Lower Stomach Fat

First, you should throw out the idea that you can spot treat areas of fat on your body. 

Fat loss doesn't work that way. If you want to reduce fat in a specific area of the body, you're going to have to lose your overall body fat.

While exercises like cardio, yoga, and crunches can tone your muscles and strengthen your lower abs, they won't remove the fat deposits, given that muscle development and fat loss are separate processes.

The key to losing fat is entering a caloric deficit.

Creating A Caloric Deficit

How do I lose my lower belly pooch? Extra calories are converted into fat, meaning that a caloric deficit entails that you consume fewer calories than what your body uses.

A caloric deficit can be achieved through dieting, exercise, or ideally, a combination of both.

If you depend on a diet to lose fat, you must eat foods high in protein but low in calories. This can be achieved by making healthier choices such as avoiding processed carbohydrates and eating less sugar.

Exercise generally helps you burn calories, which will help you achieve your caloric deficit threshold.

If you have a daily 500-calorie deficit, you'll lose about 1 pound of fat per week.

Why You're Struggling

The main reason people struggle to lose lower belly fat is not being consistent and becoming impatient.

Fat loss through natural means isn't something that can be achieved in a matter of weeks; it's a daily process that requires much effort to be effective.

For some patients, the patented AirSculpt treatment can help provide that final boost over the finish line by removing stubborn belly fat pockets. Nonetheless, it's essential to understand that a healthy lifestyle will be needed either way to maintain your new results.
