How can I stop eating junk?

Question

I'm not fat but have a bit of a tummy. I don't really drink but have a sweet tooth. I exercise most days, dance salsa 3 times a week but it's ,y mid section I don't like. I've started doing an eight min abs programme but it's the fat on top really.
Can anyone help?

Answer 1

exercise more, do more cardio. Croiss train with light weights and lots of reps. And cut down on the food intake as much as u can.

Answer 2

It is an addiction and not one that they have a 12 step program for. It isn't illegal or frowned upon by society. It isn't dangerous to do while you drive. Eating junk is easy, comforting, and handy, like fast food only worse for you. I wish I could recommend a way to stop.....for you AND me. Maybe a substitute like bananas dipped in chocolate syrup(not as easy as a prepackaged candy bar), or apples with caramel melted over them(not as easy as a fruit pie). I don't know the answer. Maybe we have to have a heart attack before we get serious!

ab excecises are fine but really them alone wont reduce the fat on your belly it just tone the muscles up underneath.
you need a change in diet as you do a bit of excercise maybe a bit more like more classes or jogging? You obviously know when your eating the junk food so its really up to you whether you want yourself to look like this image you have of yourself or continue eating crap risking heart desease strokes heart attacks.... and for what? when your older you can say wow i really enjoyed my life eating crap all those lovely dougnuts and chocolate.. Chocolate to me is a treat nto something i have every day or even 3 times a week, id treat myself to a small bar of chococlate on a saturday morning as i know i will excercise later on in the day. youtr choice dude do you really want it? replace junk food with veg fruit. no carb foods after 5pm eat proteins fish steak etc after 5pm with salads, carbs for lunch, cereal when you get up in the morning, eat little and often drink plenty of water too! just try it for 1 week, if you dont like go back to eating crap. good luck ;) you will really see th edifferernce in complexion, energy levels, thinking sleeping see how quick you wake up aswell! plus excercising and you feel alot more confident and not afraid to tak eyour t-shirt off lol

Not fat, bit of a gut but don't drink, have to watch what I eat cause of hyper tension, don't smoke, I think most of us males have the same problem in the end, its called going to seed. Good Luck losing yours, I know you gonna need it cause I have been trying for almost as long as I can remembe!

Answer 5

you need more cardio to burn off the fat so that you'll be able to see the muscle. it doesnt' matter how many crunches you do if you have a layer of fat over the abs. and stop buying junk food and going to fast food restaurants. buy healthier snacks and just try to make smarter choices!

Answer 6

find somthen to replace the junk
food that is good for you and that tasts good at the same time

I eat junk all the time, and right now I have no fat or tummy as you said, but it is getting to my teeth
so when I get hungery for somthen I just pull the salid out of the frig just because I really like salid and it is a good substitute for junk

Answer 7

maybe you should try to avoid buying any junk food (regarding to your question to how stop eating junk). About the fat bit, i can only think of keep exercising, eat healthily, and be patient. it will go away sooner or later =)

Answer 8

I don't want to encourage bulemia. My suggestion is to buy and chew the chocolate then spit it out before swallowing that way you get the taste satisfied and you don't get the calories.

My mate does this cos like you we train regular, we both have washboard stomachs.

Answer 9

I've got the same problem. I'm trying to give up the sweets but usually it's stronger than me... :(

There comes a point in each man's life where he just has to put down the cherry pie.
