Carbs are the enemy: Carbs are the enemy. We need some carbs in the diet, but not more than 25% of your calories.

Can't specifically: Get rid of abdominal fat by spot reducing. If you lose weight a portion of that weight loss will reduce abdominal fat. Whole grains are healthier than eating highly processed foods but won't cause specific loss of abdominal fat. Additionally, core toning exercises will help you stand more erect & improve your appearance. To lose weight keep up your physical activity and insure that >>.
