How to get firm abs to show off your belly buttons

With summer right around the corner, we’re all gearing up for the season of bikinis, exposed abs, and shiny new belly buttons. While some may dread this season, you’ll soon discover that there’s really no reason to regard the long, hot days of summer as anything less than a season of fun. The good news is that to get your tummy in shape to wear the latest and greatest belly button rings, you only need a few weeks, a minimum of crunches, and the right kinds of foods.

A successful healthy weight strategy is 80% based on the foods you choose to eat. Knowing this simple little fact makes facing the summer season and your tummy a lot less scary. And let me emphasize that you willpower to be able to eat food – great-tasting food. Starving yourself to get perfect abs is not a good strategy! No one will enjoy your belly buttons if you end up sick and have to stay home.

Here are several diet suggestions to get a flat tummy to show off your belly rings:

* Choose nutrient-dense foods. This means you should stay away from processed white carbs, such as processed grains, potatoes, rice, bread, and pasta.

*Learn to love your vegetables and proteins. Roast some summer squash and a chicken breast and you’ll find you don’t even miss cornbread or mashed potatoes. Try a chicken burger with tomato, lettuce, avocado and a thin whole wheat bun. Or skip the bun and mix it all up in a salad.

* Experiment with MUFA. These are your monounsaturated fatty acids: the good fats. Included in this category are natural peanut butter, avocados, walnuts, almonds, olive oil, and sunflower seeds, just to name a few. This type of fat actually helps you burn belly fat to get you ready to show off your belly buttons.

This is just the tip of the iceberg for getting a flat tummy that’s sexy and fit for belly rings, bikinis, and overall better health. Dive into that salad, and then get ready to dive into some summer fun.
