Yesterday was a scorching 90 degrees in NYC (this is unheard of in April). Some of us might notice we are carrying a little something extra around our waist. The dreaded belly flab! I too am guilty of not doing as much ab work in the winter months. Now that it is warm and we are all going to be wearing much less as summer approaches we need to get rid of that belly flab. I have compiled a list of foods that fight belly fat, but I must say that the most important thing is sleep. Add these foods into your diet daily, get lots of sleep, work your core and lay off the beer.
1. Avocado (contains monounsaturated fat. It helps prevent deposition of fat around the middle)
2. Green tea (phytochemicals speed up metabolism)
3. Whole grains (keep insulin levels low)
4. Egg Whites (protein keeps you feeling fuller longer)
5. Vinegar (helps your body burn fat)
6. Dark leafy greens (high in b vitamins. Keeps you energized throughout the day)
7. Water. Water. Water (enough said)
8. Lemon (use to replace fatty dressing and marinades)
9. Beans (full of fiber that fights belly bloat and keeps your fuller longer)
10. Raspberries (high in ketone which helps fight fat)
