Flat Belly Diet
Our Reviewer Says ...
"Food and attitude (and not one single crunch, by the way) are all you need to downsize that waistline."
At a Glance
By Karen Asp
Quit your crunching. If you've been on a quest for flat abs, it’s not about the exercise -- it’s about what you eat. Or so says the Flat Belly Diet. The diet, which claims you can lose 15 pounds in 32 days, says food and attitude (and not one single crunch, by the way) are all you need to downsize that waistline. Written by Liz Vaccariello, editor-in-chief of Prevention, with registered dietitian Cynthia Sass, the diet is divided into two phases: A four-day jump start and a 28-day plan. The hook behind this diet is the focus on monounsaturated fatty acids (MUFAs), healthy fats that have been shown to protect the heart and prevent other diseases.
