Question
Hi Nevil.

I'll start off with some basics, and you can ask anything else that you may need to know to help give me the best answer you can.  I'm 18, and weigh about 170-175 lbs.  I used to weigh 200 lbs last September; but then I stopped eating alltogether because relationship problems I had was depressing me, then I started running and exercising more, etc.  So within the past year I went from 200 down to as low as 167 lbs.

Anyways now; I've been talking to this girl and will be meeting her in about 3 months and 1 week or so.  So here's where my problem is.  I'm not necessarily fat, but I'm not exactly a body-builder, or weightlifter with abs either.  In other words, I'm not really fat, but I have a belly which I would like to lose some of..

That's why I'm messaging you about this, because I'd like to lose some weight/ stomach-fat in 3 months before I meet this girl.  It's not only for her, but I'd like to do it for myself as well.  

Here's some of what I like to eat/ drink, and what I can't eat.

LIKES:  I like ALL Fruits/Vegetables--> but NOT Bananas, or Cucumbers too often,  I eat cucumbers VERY rarely.  Salad, Cereal& Milk, Yogurt, Chips, Meat/Cheese Pizza, Granola Bars, Fries, Sausage, Bacon, Diet Coke, Water, Apple/Orange/Grape Juice.

DISLIKES:  Beef, Ham, Turkey, Chicken, Fish, Hamburger, Eggs, Cheese, Butter.   


As you know; it's winter right now, and I really hate the cold so I don't run any right now..  However; I "AM" willing to go outside to the park and walk the walking-trail too.  

So based on what I told you, is there anything you can help me with here?  Any daily exercise plans, eating habits/ meals, etc.  you can help with please?

I'd really like to lose some of my stomach-fat and a few pounds within 3 months; and instead of starving myself some like I considered, I figured I'd ask for help from here first.  

Please help. I would really appreciate it, and I AM willing to change my daily life-style and eating-habits.                Thanks,   -Matt-

Answer
Hi Matt,

The belly fat is a difficult area to get rid off as this is the most resistent due to our bodies wanting to keep it to protect the underlying organs.

The best exercises are weights.

As for your eating habits, I'm afraid they are certainly not helping.
Of the things you like, fruits/veg, salad, yogurt, water and fresh juice are good for you.

From the things you dislike, All apart from the cheese and burger are GOOD for you.

In the end you want a balanced diet of protein and veg mainly. Try smoothies as a great way to get the nutrition in you and add protein powder to them. You can see examples of nutrition supplements that are simply natural food at http://www.thinkslimntrim.org/shoponline

Hope this all helps
