The best way to reduce belly, abdominal and thigh fat is by dieting. You can tone them through exercise. Don’t try to eliminate fat completely. Firstly, you can’t. Secondly, you need some body fat to be healthy.
The best, but most boring, answer is to eat healthier. Don’t do a fad diet, but just make gradual, better decisions about the things you eat. That’s really what it takes. The secret to losing weight is that there is no secret.
In September this year (2018) I decided to start making changes in my lifestyle. I had a baby a few years ago and had put on a lot of weight that I couldn’t seem to shake. Worse than the extra weight, I had very little energy, awful back pain, and didn’t feel like me. I started growing my own vegetables in my back garden, which had the knock on effect of making me want to eat differently. I made the decision not to diet, but to change my whole lifestyle little by little. I started slowly by making smoothies using fresh ingredients from my garden and replacing one meal per day with a smoothie. I then cut out processed sugar and simple carbohydrates. At no point did I allow myself to feel hungry or deprived, and I let it happen slowly and naturally. Once I started losing some weight, I was able to start getting some light exercise. It’s been nearly 3 months and I’m already wearing quite a few items of clothing from my pre-pregnancy wardrobe and my weight loss is visible to others. Bearing in mind that I didn’t start on this journey to lose weight, but rather to have more energy, I’d say the results have been thrilling. These are the key take home points for me: 1: Slow and steady wins the race. Focus on your health and the rest will follow. 2: Don’t deprive yourself. Have some rules in place but if you really need a piece of chocolate, just go ahead and have it. 3: When you start to exercise, start slowly. Walk around the block, dance around the living room, climb up a few flights of stairs. If you go all in from day 1, you’re going to put yourself off and will likely not continue. I even have a small thigh gap again! Listen to your body, we are all different and there’s no one size fits all for this kind of thing. If you fall of the wagon, don’t get discouraged or let disappointment fool you into thinking you can’t jump right back on. Good luck!
Spend more energy than the amount you’re consuming. Walking and swimming.
First and foremost, you have to objectively look at your diet.

Just add one or two things for a couple weeks and work your way up. Cheers!
Drink lots of water and avoid snacks. Do core exercises every day and try running. Even sprinting in your backyard. Try calisthenics or take on a martial art. Boxing is a great way to lose fat. But workout every day.
I find that I lose weight overall. With consistent daily exercise. Cut down on bread, grains and sugar. Stop eating when satisfied- practice Intuitive Eating. When I stop dieting and focus on healthy eating, along with the above mentioned, my weight somehow levels out and I can see overall improvement in mental clarity, body composition and acceptance of my own body image as my journey progresses.
Cut out sugar in all its forms (so that includes cutting out a lot of carbs).
