It is still practically the beginning of summer and you still have time to get that body bikini ready. While I was on glamour the other day, I found this great article about foods that flatter the tummy. Even though I have a small frame, I have a little belly and I am working really hard to minimize it. Here are two lists of foods that are either belly friendly or bloat causing. I am sure you know which list to stay away from. Check them out:
Belly Friendly
- Blueberries-linked to less fat
- Asparagus- Natural diuretic that helps get rid of water weight.
- Salmon-Foods high in omega-3 fats promote digestion.
- Watermelon- one of nature’s water-weight nixers
- Citrus fruit- add lemon in your water to aid with digestion
Bloat Causing
- Alcohol-heavier drinks add more belly fat
- Soy sauce-salt increases water weight
- Canned soups-high in sodium
- Popcorn-airy foods pooch out the stomach
- Dried fruit-high in fiber, but loaded with sugar
