Sayonara Love Handles

That pinchable fat around your waist troubles your heart? Its time to bid adieu to them.

- Shalini Bhargava

Every single woman out there wishes to have a leaner waist, a smaller pant size. But narrowing your waistline has to do more with refining your sensitivity to insulin levels and glucose levels, than how you look in the mirror. Various studies conducted have revealed that stomach fat is a driving aspect behind the growth of insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes.

If weight loss is your ultimate fitness goal, especially if you are diabetic, love handles or the stubborn pinchable fat on both sides of the abdomen can definitely prove to be a hurdle for you. For a woman whose waist size is larger than 35 inches, it is very significant to lose the deep stomach fat first. This is essentially better for recovering your health, as visceral fat has been associated with a lot of health issues like pre-diabetes, Type 1 diabetes, high blood pressure, high cholesterol etc. Although it might seem like an almost effortless task to get rid of your love handles, these hard-to-loose fats often fail to respond positively to nutrition and exercise changes.
