A member asked:
I am 42. what is the fastest healthy way to lose weight through exercise. i am concerned about weight in stomach area and generally around waist area.?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Slow, steady success: The fat around the middle is unhealthy not just as added weight but as indicator of possible decline in health if it persists. Weight loss programs in general will cause loss of pounds through generalized weight loss--all over. Exercise programs can strengthen the ab and oblique muscles, enhancing shape of the waistline. The fastest way is to start today eating less at dinner then going for a walk.
