Before I started training with Walter, I thought I was already in pretty good shape. I rode my bike to work almost every day and stayed active. However, both I and those who playfully teased me about “my little friend” (a.k.a. my midsection) agreed that toning up wouldn’t hurt—especially considering my genetics and my love for food.
Now, my "little friend" was never that bad, but as women, we know that keeping our core tight is key to maintaining that hourglass figure. When I moved and could no longer ride my bike to work, I worried that reaching my fitness goals would become a challenge. But the real turning point came when I sucked in my stomach one day and actually felt a concave curve—that’s when I knew Walter’s training was working.
The Lifestyle Changes That Stuck
The changes I’ve made under Walter’s guidance aren’t just temporary fixes—they’ve become permanent lifestyle habits. Not only have these adjustments helped me maintain my physique, but they’ve also put me on the path to long-term health, reducing the chances of costly prescription medications later in life (because let’s be real, who knows if Medicare will even exist by then?). With more discipline in my diet and workout routine, I know I can achieve and maintain a truly awesome physique.
How I Tightened My Tummy
Gradually, my bulge started turning into a tighter tummy as I paid closer attention to my diet. Now, I’d love to say it was from climbing two mountains and running 20 miles before dawn every day, but let’s be real—it was all about targeted nutrition and smart training.
Here are some key changes that made a huge difference for me:
Watching My Sugar Intake – I reduced my consumption of smoothies after realizing that natural sugars were bloating me. When I did drink them, I made sure to have them earlier in the day.
Cutting Down on White Flour – I (almost) eliminated white flour products and replaced them with whole wheat or multigrain options. Not only did this help my physique, but I also noticed my seasonal allergies improved.
Incorporating Resistance Training – Strength training helped me tone and sculpt different areas of my body, making a visible impact on my overall shape.
Increasing My Protein Intake – Boosting my protein intake helped my body build muscle and burn fat more efficiently.
Walter’s nutritional advice—especially his emphasis on EATING MORE PROTEIN—helped me understand the importance of when and how much to eat.
Final Advice: LISTEN TO WALTER!
If you struggle with losing belly fat, take Walter’s advice seriously. For me, increasing my protein intake was a game-changer, but since everybody is different, I recommend finding a diet that works best for you and is realistic to maintain.
Also, don’t underestimate the small lifestyle changes that add up over time:
✔ Take the stairs instead of the elevator.
✔ Walk or bike instead of driving—it’s cheaper and better for the environment.
✔ Stay active throughout the day, even outside of workouts.
✔ Prioritize sleep and hydration (I’m still working on this one!).
Starting this journey with Walter was one of the best decisions I’ve made for my health, confidence, and long-term well-being. If you’re ready to commit, trust the process—it works!
