How can I get rid of my belly fat?

Everyone wants an immediate answer to getting rid of belly fat. Over the years, there have been thousands of books written on weight loss and there are just as many diet recipes to reduce weight.

I recently had weight loss surgery and now have lost 22 pounds. However, the urge to eat is still present. What should I do?

You face the same dilemma that thousands of other people who also undergo weight loss surgery. Most people do not seem to understand that the problem with weight gain is not in the stomach but in the head. When you undergo weight loss surgery, it does nothing to your appetite center in the brain. The majority of people who undergo these surgical procedures do gain some weight back with time. 

The only way to prevent this is to change your lifestyle. Start an exercise program- even walking will do. Speak to a dietician about dietary changes that you can make. After having spent thousands of dollars for this type of surgery, you must make an effort to prevent weight gain and this means exercise. Unfortunately, there is no magic bullet for this problem
