Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors

Fat accumulation around waist needs lifestyle modifications in the form of diet and exercise. Do portion control of meals and include low carbohydrate, low fat and high protein foods in diet. Moderate to high intensity exercises such as jogging, running, lifting weights and crunches are to be done for at least 5 days in a week and each session must be at least 45 minutes.
