How to Get Rid of Loose Fat

Weight loss does not have to be a painful process. A basic rule of thumb is to burn more calories than you take in until you reach your desired weight. It is not possible to control where on your body weight loss will occur, so it is important to maintain a healthy and active lifestyle. Losing weight slowly and sensibly, and getting steady exercise, will keep you toned and minimize loose fat as you lose weight.
