14-Day Flat Belly Meal Plan

14-Day Flat Belly Meal Plan

Tighten your tummy. Whittle your middle. Whatever you call it, you’re on a mission—one that’s going to create that slim, flat silhouette you want. But where do you start? Right here. We’re sharing a 14-day flat belly meal plan to help you reach your weight loss and body-trimming goals.


This flat belly menu is packed with foods that nurture a slimmer middle—and a slimmer all-over you. We’ve chosen recipes with fiberlicious foods, like Brussels sprouts, spinach, and quinoa, to beat back the bloat and constipation that make the tummy look bigger. The recipes below also offer foods, like avocados and fish, which are high in the healthy fats that support the metabolism and assist weight loss.


A smoother middle may begin in the kitchen with a flat belly meal plan, but exercise is critical too. Get moving with:
