How To Keep Your Stomach Looking Flat

Ingredients

• Discipline
• Water
• "Good" fats

Steps

1. Don't starve yourself!} - Don’t starve yourself! Your body will go into survival mode and hang on to any fat around your midsection for dear life. (17 sec. )
2. Replace soda with water - Sip flat water throughout the day. Dehydration and carbonated beverages both cause belly bloat. (26 sec. )
3. Avoid trans fats - Limit your intake of foods that contain trans fats, like packaged snacks and stick margarine. Studies have indicated that people who eat a diet high in trans fats are more likely to gain weight – and gain it around their middle – than those who don’t, even if they eat the same number of calories.

4. Give up gum - If you chew gum, stop. It makes you swallow a lot of air, which inflates your belly like a balloon. (50 sec. )
5. Eat "good" fats - Eat foods that contain monounsaturated fatty acids, like avocadoes, nuts, and olives. Research indicates that they can help reduce belly fat, so long as they’re eaten in moderation and in place of bad fats and simple carbs, rather than in addition to them. (57 sec. )
6. Avoid white food - Stay away from white bread, white rice, and white pasta. They cause the body to retain water, as does another white no-no – salt. (71 sec. )
7. Show off - Show off your flat stomach – you’ve earned it! (81 sec. )
8. Talking fast can lead to belly bloat because it causes you to swallow air. (87 sec. )
