How to Combat Belly Fat by Eating More
If someone told you that you could eliminate your belly fat by eating more food, you would think they were losing their mind! Although it is hard to believe, it is in fact true. However, the catch is that you can't just eat anything you want.
What Foods to Eat
Eating more food actually stokes your metabolism but you have to choose the right fuel for your body and consume them at the appropriate times. The types of foods to include are lean proteins, good fats, fruits, vegetables, and whole grains. Stay away from all processed foods - anything man-made will hamper your progress.
When to Eat
You want to increase your food consumption to 5 or 6 small meals per day. Never skip breakfast because doing so will set your metabolism off on the wrong foot. Generally a day's meal plan would be as follows:
- 7am - Breakfast
- 9am - Healthy snack
- 12pm - Lunch
- 3pm - Healthy snack
- 5pm - Dinner
- 7pm - Healthy snack
You'll want to eat every 2 to 3 hours. Doing this will keep your body from going into starvation mode. When meals are skipped, the body doesn't know when to expect the next meal. This slows your metabolism and your body stores fat in order to keep from starving. This is why skipping meals, particularly breakfast, actually increases belly fat.
Eating more of the right kinds of foods throughout the day is your key to combating belly fat. Remember to stay away from processed foods, increase your physical activity, and incorporate strength training to lose and maintain a healthy weight.

Should I stick to my diet while I'm sick?
I've had this terrible cold/chest congestion for almost a week already. I've been on a diet before I got sick - no sugar, no salt, no oil diet (basically healthy food), lots of water, small portions of meals - and I've lost weight. I've had to stop exercising and weight training when I caught this bug. Was just wondering if I should stick to my diet while sick or if it will speed up recovery if I eat normally. I don't want to regain the weight I lost though but was wondering if I should maybe eat something with more salt or fat to combat my illness.
If you had asked whether to stick to an exercise program while sick, I would have advised not to. As for a diet, I would imagine that there would be no effect (unless of course it is the diet itself that has made you ill).
