    How to lose belly fat with this one little trick :);):). But seriously now, I have found that even if I get my abs in top shape, there still can be a layer of fat over them.

    I recently lost a lot of weight. I went from a Size 2X to a Size 8. My belly and waist are very small now. Even though I have not been working out enough, and my abs are not in shape, I am still small.

    So my experience is that it is all about the fat.

    Ab workouts, tuck in your stomach slightly throughout the day.

    Is there any foods to eat to help shrink the size of your waist? Or good upper body exercises to do at home to quicken the process? I've cut my calorie intake from well over 3000 to 2250 and have been going on walks daily but don't seem to be losing weight

    Hi Leo! Since there's no good way to spot target (especially if you still have weight to lose), you may wish to use MFP to help you lose weight. What is your height and weight? For example, if you are 5'9" and 270, one would think your caloric intake should be about 2400 cals. a day at 20% reduction. See http://scoobysworkshop.com/calorie-calculator/ for a good calculator.

    You can use MyFitnessPal (MFP) to track your daily calories consumed (food) and calories burned (exercise). Click Goals > Change Goals > Guided, Continue, enter in your accurate information and realistic goal weight, and click Update Profile. MFP will give you good information on how many calories you should eat each day to safely lose weight.

    This doesn't work, and neither do any other type of "spot" reducing exercises.

    I would do the 21 day NAKED AND AFRAID diet. 20 to 40 pounds - LOST - guaranteed! Lose even more by doing cardio - such as gathering firewood and searching for food, finding/making clean drinking water.

    Supposedly, milk is supposed to help with that, but I doubt it's enough for most people to notice and it is somewhat high in calories.

    Increased waist to hip ratio is indicator of insulin sensitivity. Most don't have necessary assessment, mainly glucose tolerance testing with insulin measurements and assessing the ratio. If insulin sensitive, then reducing carbohydrates would be necessary, along with increasing fats and protein. This forces body to metabolize the fats. Much more to it than this, but at least a basic start.

    2250 calories seems like a lot to be be cutting on, especially since your form of exercise is going on walks.

    what is your height and weight?

    Yep, you cannot spot-reduce and choose where you lose (or put on the pounds). However, this being said, if you are prone to belly fat ("apple shape"), i.e. to storing excess weight in your torso, try eliminating gluten/wheat for 1-2 months and see whether this makes a difference.
    I am an apple shape and ted to store the fat in the middle. I have lost 7 kg (about 15 pounds) from June 2014 to now, after cutting out gluten, milk and caffeine, eating a clean, varied diet, and NOT dieting. My daily calorie allowance has been roughly around the 1800-2000 mark and I have been fairly active (not insane gym-hopping but 3-4 fun sessions per week).

    Please note, everybody is different though and you will have to try and see what works best for you.

    I think it's wonderful that you have found a dietary plant that works for you and has improved your health. However, you lost weight due to eating less not because you cut out certain foods. Some of the weight could have been water retention too, as we tend to hold water with carbs.

    Gluten does not not make a person gain weight, and it does not make a person lose weight. No food does this, it's the overall consumption that causes us to gain or lose weight. :)
