Summer body day 2 - Food Ideas to shrink your middle

For maximum results it’s important to fuel the body properly & eat healthy.


Here are some food ideas to help shrink your middle!

Grapefruit

It’s filled with water & fiber. Eating half an organic grapefruit with meals promotes weight loss. Try adding flaxseed, chia seeds or cinnamon to grapefruit to enhance the taste.

Spinach

Spinach has tons of folate which lowers your stress hormones (stress will make you gain weight in your mid section). You want as low stress hormones as possible, so eat lots of organic spinach and add it to smoothies too.

Eggs

They contain B12, which is an energizing vitamin that helps boost the metabolism & burn fat. Protein also keeps you full. Make sure they are organic!

Chili Pepper/Flakes

Add this spice to hummus, salsas, chili, etc… to spark the metabolism & increase calorie burning.

Dark Chocolate

The perfect dessert in moderation and a healthy fat: other healthy fats…organic avocado, organic olive oil, raw organic nuts and organic coconut products.

Extra foods that shrink your tummy

Organic berries (loaded with fiber), organic pineapple (helps stop bloating)
