A member asked:

What's the most effective way of losing belly fat in terms of exercise and the food you consume?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Diet and exercise: Eat less than you burn off. It takes 3500 calories to gain or lose a pound. Target your exercise to the belly muscles to make the fat less noticeable.
