    I was told green apples and berry's are what you want to eat. As far as exercises you want to do side crunches

    Don't worry about the natural sugar found in fruit. MFP doesn't take into consideration where the sugar comes from so I wouldn't worry about going over if you're sticking to fruits. Just watch your refined sugar intake. As far as exercise to get rid of belly fat. It really takes cardio and strength exercises. Drink lots of water and get good amount of sleep too.

    @kathykibby Don't mess around with your back. Get yourself a trainer who can adapt exercises accordingly.

    I wouldn't worry about sugar from fruit. As far as exercises go..you can not spot reduce fat. You will have to lose weight in order to lose belly fat...and your body will take the fat from wherever it feels like taking it. If you do more ab exercises and aren't losing fat, you may run the risk of making your stomach look bigger bc your muscle is growing and the fat is still there.
