Are you stressed out? When your body’s stressed it tends to dump fat in the belly region. Also, spend alot of time doing crunches etc.

Here’s a article off my blog on get rid of a "Bloated Stomach" that may be of help to you….

If you are a woman, you know all too well that bloated feeling every month during your menstrual cycle. It’s unfathomable how a pair of jeans that fit yesterday won’t fit today. It’s a curse, but water weight gain affects everyone. The main culprit is sodium.

We are talking about salt. The chemical name of the salt compound is sodium chloride. It is used as a preservative in many foods. Salt increases shelf life. Derivatives like monosodium glutamate (MSG) are used to tenderize meat and add flavor to our food, but it is also ruining our health.

Even when you opt for low-fat chips, fat free cookies, light soups and low fat cheeses there is still that sneaky ingredient that keeps you feeling bloated. It is caused by the sodium and it is everywhere. Learning to avoid sodium in excess can save your life.

Your body only needs about 2,400 milligrams of salt per day. That is about the equivalent of two teaspoons. A bowl of canned soup can provide that much and more. You don’t think about the foods that contain sodium because you have been programmed to be worried about and concentrate on things like fat and calorie counting when it comes to weight loss or healthier eating habits. These are not the only things you should be cautious about. Beware of the amount of sodium in your foods as well.

Even some dishes you normally wouldn’t think contain salt have a measure of sodium in it. Pasta mixes, hot dogs, deli meat, and pizza all contain sodium, even the diet varieties.

Your body needs sodium to help it maintain water balance, but not in the amounts that are typically consumed. Our bodies are 90 percent water so the amount of sodium we take in is very important. Sodium also assists in absorption of nutrients within the body and the function of muscle fibers and nerves. While you lose weight you are also working to build muscle and get stronger and leaner. As your body reaches age 40 and beyond, you begin to actually lose muscle.

Excess sodium causes fluid to collect in the tissues. You feel puffy and bloated all the time. More water is drawn into the blood leading to increased blood volume and high blood pressure. Everyone’s heard of high blood pressure. You exercise to lose weight so you won’t become afflicted with such conditions as high blood pressure (hypertension), heart disease, stroke, and kidney disease, but your food choices are making it a possible reality, regardless of your physical activities.

Your taste buds are so used to the high content of sodium in foods that they may not even taste salt anymore. Think about that. Even when sodium has already been added to food, how often do you reach for the salt shaker.

Sodium is needed by the body, but only in small amounts. Avoid buying foods with high sodium content. That means processed foods especially. Opt instead for all natural foods prepared at home and throw out the salt shaker.
