I have problems with losing weight . I count calories (it sucks!) with MyFitnessPal and I do cardio for 2 hours 3x a week but I'm still not seeing the results I want.

So a few days ago, I asked Famous Nutritionist, Luke Coutinho on what he suggests I do to get a flatter stomach through AskMeAnything.Me. Here is his helpful reply:

- cortisol is the biggest enemy, manage stress effectively so as to keep cortisol in check as it is this hormone that comes in between a flat tummy goal. Breathe deeply to lower cortisol levels

- Diet is almost everything, eat clean balanced meals, nuts and seeds and plenty of veggies..stay hydrated and keep dinners light

- high interval training and body weight exercises are super,master the pull up and that will help with a flat tummy

- sleep and recovery is extremely important, you need 7-8 hours of restful sleep…remember the body grows and repairs and the hormones balance while we sleep

- explore Tabata,its a super way of burning body fat, always have these exercises in your routine,pull ups, squats, planks ( front and side), super mans, lunges, push ups, russian twists and calf raises..

- try to meditate

-keep your bowel movement in to notch condition

- keep it simple,,,go for wholesome foods, balanced diets, something that is in relation to your roots and staple.

- eat slow, chew, eat mindfully and stop when full..never eat with guilt

- Make a plan that revolves around good nutrition, exercise, even if its just a walk, good sleep and recovery and handling emotions and stress effectively..stress is one of the main reasons many struggle to lose weight due to the hormone cortiosl
