Best Way to Lose Belly Fat

How to Lose Belly Fat: A Blueprint From Physicians

A female patient discusses the best way to lose belly fat in Fergus Falls with her doctor

More than half of Americans struggle with belly fat, which can pose mental and physical health problems. We’re not here to judge—we recognize that shedding abdominal fat is easier said than done.

We realize that there are a lot of “miracle solutions” out there, but if you’ve dabbled in quick fixes, you know they don’t work. Why? They aren’t backed by science.

Here’s a look at the best way to lose belly fat through proven methods, directly from the experts at REVIV Medical in Fergus Falls. 

Weight Loss vs Fat Loss

People tend to use the terms “weight loss” and “fat loss” interchangeably, but these are different goals—requiring different plans of action. Weight loss refers to reducing your overall weight and lowering your BMI. Fat loss only refers to lowering your body fat percentage.

While adopting healthier lifestyle habits can help you achieve both goals, it’s important to understand that medical weight loss, using injections like semaglutide, is best for lowering your BMI, whether it be for health or aesthetic reasons. Body sculpting is best for targeting stubborn fat pockets—and building muscle—once you’re already near your ideal weight. If you’re not quite there, we can combine these methods. 

Finding the Best Way to Lose Belly Fat 

Our doctors always take the time to sit down with you one-on-one to openly discuss your situation, from your concerns and goals to your budget and habits. After performing an in-depth health assessment to identify your unique physical challenges, mental barriers, and readiness for change, we’ll use Styku body analysis technology to establish your baseline and create your custom plan. 

The Consultation Process

Nutritional Coaching

Food is not the enemy—it’s fuel. 

We’ll help you create a realistic, well-balanced daily nutrition plan, carefully managing your fat, protein, and carbohydrate intake. Unlike ineffective quick fixes and cleanses that offer minor and temporary results—if any—nutritional weight loss is sustainable. Using Styku to track your progress and ensure you’re losing fat rather than muscle takes the guesswork out of dieting. 

Body Sculpting

We may also recommend incorporating body contouring in Fergus Falls into your plan, taking the effort out of exercise with Emsculpt NEO. This unique device reduces subcutaneous fat by 30% and visceral fat by 17%, while increasing muscle mass by 25% or more. This approach simultaneously melts fat, builds muscle, and tightens your skin—painlessly—to improve your confidence and mobility.
