Rolls of fat around your middle are often described as 'love handles' but that's only to be kind I'm afraid. Conventional wisdom tells us that slow weight loss of around 1 to 2 pounds a week is a healthy target when achieved through good nutrition and exercise.
Eating many small meals rather than fewer large meals can also help your body to burn the calories that you eat and so make it easier for you to lose your stomach fat.

This means that if you reduce the amount of calories that eat in an attempt to lose weight then your body just compensates by not burning so many.
A relatively new technique puts you on a diet where you actually change the types of calories that you eat on a daily basis. If you change the type of calories that you eat daily then you can actually trick your body into keeping your metabolic rate up and burn calories fast.
