You are 12 and you want to lose weight- belly fat how you you do that?

First, you need to ask just how that belly fat got there in the first place. Extra fat only accumulates if you are eating more calories than you are burning, simple as that. Think about your activities during your daily free time: do you play outside, run around with your friends on a playground, ride a bike? Or do you sit at home playing Video Games or surf on the computer for hours? You need to be active in your body so that it can burn up extra calories, instead of storing it up as fat.

Second, what is your diet like? Do you eat fresh fruits and vegetables with your meals? Or do you eat a lot of 'junk' food and starchy foods (white rice, potatoes, white breads, cookies) and things that have a lot of sugar in them? If you have a lot of belly fat, the answer is probably the second answers, right?

So, how do you get rid of the belly fat? Get out and do things that make your body move and sweat! Start playing sports, look into community center activities. And STOP eating junk food. It is LOADED with ingredients that are TERRIBLE for your body.

The good news is that at your age, you have a great metabolism, and your body will burn off that chub in no time once you start giving it better fuel and moving it around more. Remember, the longer you put off taking care of yourself, the harder it will be to lose the weight. You can do it!
