<p><strong>Gabrielle Union</strong> looks as fit and fabulous today as she did when she first began her career in Hollywood over two decades ago. However, it&#8217;s not just good luck that keeps the star looking amazing.</p>

</blockquote>
<p>In a July 27 <a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/CRy_5z9pkBs/">post to Instagram</a>, Union revealed which two foods she typically keeps off her menu to maintain her fit physique.</p>
<p>Of the photo, in which Union wears a black sports bra and pair of briefs from Harlem American, the star writes, &#8220;No gluten, no dairy.&#8221; However, in her typical cheeky manner, she also added, &#8220;Except when I eat gluten and dairy🤷🏾‍♀️👋🏾🖤.&#8221;</p>

<p>Countless people found themselves gaining weight amid the pandemic, but <strong>Sherri Shepherd</strong> doesn&#8217;t number among them. In fact, the actress and comedian has managed to shed a staggering 35 pounds over the past eight months, and now, she&#8217;s working on toning up her body, too.</p>
<p>The star, who has been sharing her weight loss journey with fans on social media, just shared her ab workout with fans, admitting that it was her first time showing her belly on social media, and asking viewers to &#8220;be kind.&#8221; Read on to see Sherri&#8217;s amazing transformation, and for more celebrity slimdowns, check out RHOBH Star Garcelle Beauvais Shares Her Exact Breakfast, Lunch, and Dinner to Lose Weight.</p>
<p>On July 7, Sherri told her Instagram followers that she was participating in a 30-day challenge as a means of shaping up.</p>
<p>&#8220;1st day of @deidamassey #30daychallenge #abchallenge …. 150 sit ups… just did my morning 50 &amp; posting to hold myself accountable,&#8221; she captioned the video. &#8220;First time I am showing my belly so be kind.&#8221;</p>
<p>In <a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/CRCIhaNluEE/">the clip</a>, Sherri tackles a set of crunches while holding a medicine ball, which she says helps her sit up unassisted. Sherri also spread the wealth to her fans, inviting them to join her as part of the challenge by tagging her and makeup artist Deida Massey on Instagram.

<p>One of Sherri&#8217;s latest fitness obsessions isn&#8217;t something you&#8217;ll find in your average gym. Instead, the star has been roller skating her way to better health in parks, at roller rinks, and even in her home—and sharing all the highlights with her followers.</p>
<p>&#8220;Who&#8217;s going to teach me to skate!!!&#8221; she captioned a <a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/CQ2VqTCFzdE/">photo of herself</a> looking rink ready in a pair of pink skates and denim shorts.</p>
<p>Sherri, who has been open about <a href="https://onedrop.today/blogs/blog/sherri-shepherd-diabetes-saved-my-life">living with type 2 diabetes</a>, says that changing her eating habits has been a major part of her recipe for weight loss, as well.</p>
<p>On May 25, Sherri shared a recipe for one of her <a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/CPT_2iwlLa0/">favorite healthy salads</a> on Instagram, telling her followers how changing her eating habits has also changed her perspective on her overall health.</p>
<p>&#8220;Do I want a #2 with fries. Yes I do, but I love how I feel better more than that cheeseburger that would be clogging my arteries &amp; inflaming the tissue around my heart, causing diabetes to choke the life out of me. I kind of like this feeling of feeling good!&#8221; she wrote. &#8220;Just want to encourage you to put down the salt shaker, add more veggies to your plate and drink more water! You&#8217;ve got so much to live for!&#8221;</p>
<p>It&#8217;s not just diet and exercise that have helped Sherri get into amazing shape. The star says that getting into a healthier mental space has been essential for her to achieve her weight loss goals.</p>
<p>&#8220;Started this weight loss journey 8 mos ago, but making other changes in my life helped me lose even more lbs… getting consistent sleep, meditation, finding a great therapist to help me unpack hurt… forgiving those who&#8217;ve done me harm… more acceptance… less religion &amp; more relationship… discovering that God loves me no matter what (yeah I am freaky and I curse😂), more water, more walking… being thankful, finding my worth… saying no… had to say goodbye to some friends who weren&#8217;t good for me,&#8221; she captioned a <a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/CQtmdc8FcrV/">recent Instagram photo</a>. &#8220;Peace makes the weight fall off.&#8221;</p>

<p><em>Shameless</em> star<strong> Cameron Monaghan</strong> is working hard in the gym to stay fit, and the results are seriously impressive.</p>
<p>The 27-year-old actor was recently filmed during his workout at Dogpound, a gym that&#8217;s a favorite among numerous celebrities, including models Chanel Iman, Kaia Gerber, Ashley Graham, and Karlie Kloss, and actors including Noah Centineo and Hugh Jackman.</p>
<p>In the clip, <a href="https://www.instagram.com/ryanrosenthal12/">posted to Instagram</a> by Dogpound trainer Ryan Rosenthal, Monaghan can be seen doing plank crunches. To tackle the ab workout, Monaghan props up his upper body on a set of floor-based supports, extending his legs behind him on a medicine ball. Once in a plank position, Monaghan does a push-up, then brings his knees into his chest to activate his core.</p>
<figure id="560232" class="alignnone"><noscript><img class="lazyload alignnone size-medium wp-image-560232 " decoding="async" src="https://healyourhealthyourself.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/1621736904_220_Shameless-Star-Cameron-Monaghan-Just-Shared-His-Exact-Move-for.jpg" alt="cameron monaghan working out at dogpound"   data-recalc-dims="1"/></noscript><figcaption class="wp-caption-text"><span class="credit"><a href="https://www.instagram.com/stories/ryanrosenthal12/2575854129046109038/" target="blank" rel="noopener">© Ryan Rosenthal / Instagram</a></span></figcaption></figure>
<p>That&#8217;s not the only way Monaghan stays toned, however. In an interview with <a href="https://hero-magazine.com/article/37852/cameron-monaghan-talks-jamming-with-jeff-bridges/"><em>Hero</em> magazine</a>, Monaghan revealed that he&#8217;s a big fan of getting in a workout in the ring, as well.</p>
<p>&#8220;I used to do XMA, which is doing acrobatics, martial arts, learning about weapons, and all that fun stuff! But for the past couple of years I&#8217;ve just been boxing,&#8221; Monaghan explained.</p>
<p><strong>RELATED: </strong>&#8220;It&#8217;s Always Sunny&#8221; Star Rob McElhenney Reveals How He Lost 70 Pounds<strong>.</strong></p>
<p>When it comes to his diet, Monaghan isn&#8217;t exactly Spartan, either, although he admits that balance is key.</p>
<p>Monaghan told <a href="https://blackchalkmagazine.com/cameron-monaghan-beyond-shameless/"><em>Black Chalk</em></a> magazine that he had no regrets about indulging his inner foodie during a trip to France.</p>
<p>When asked what he ate, the actor replied, &#8220;Foie Gras, caviar, pretty much all the cliche French foods. It was all delicious. I was eating too much baguette and cheese. So I have to get back into fitness mode now.&#8221; And by the looks of it, he&#8217;s <em>definitely</em> made good on that promise.</p>

<p>Whether she&#8217;s performing a live show or posing for a fashion campaign, <strong>Rita Ora</strong> has never been shy about sharing snaps of her toned figure with the world. However, it&#8217;s not just genetics and good luck that keep the star fit—she works hard in the gym on a near-daily basis to achieve that killer definition.</p>
<p>The singer and actor just revealed the exact workout she does to get her six-pack abs, and she&#8217;s not cutting any corners to achieve those enviable results. Read on to discover the exact moves that help Ora maintain that chiseled core. And for more insight into how your favorite stars stay fit, check out Supermodel Chanel Iman Just Shared Her Butt-Toning Workout.</p>
<blockquote class="instagram-media" style="background: #FFF; border: 0; border-radius: 3px; box-shadow: 0 0 1px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.5),0 1px 10px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.15); margin: 1px; max-width: 540px; min-width: 326px; padding: 0; width: calc(100% - 2px);" data-instgrm-captioned="" data-instgrm-permalink="https://www.instagram.com/reel/COw3toKHi1Z/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;utm_campaign=loading" data-instgrm-version="13">
</blockquote>
<p>To achieve her enviable abs, Ora relies on a routine of exercises that incorporate both her own body weight, free weights, and machines. In a video posted to the <a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/COw3toKHi1Z/">Acero gym Instagram account</a>, Ora is seen doing leg lifts while suspending herself from a training bar, lower ab crunches and leg raises on a weight bench, cable rows with abdominal twists, and cycling a pair of wheels with her hands from a raised plank position.</p>

<p>Ab work isn&#8217;t the only type of training Ora favors at Acero, however. The star can also be seen on Acero&#8217;s Instagram account leaning against the ropes in the <a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/COv7XGMlnGz/">gym&#8217;s boxing ring</a>.</p>
<p>&#8220;Can&#8217;t feel my arms after the gym,&#8221; she captioned a separate workout video, thanking Acero founder Jono Castano for training her.</p>

<p>To achieve her toned physique, Ora relies primarily on weight training, incorporating only shorter cardio workouts into her routine.</p>
<p>&#8220;I do circuit training. I usually work out for one or two hours, depending on how much time I have. I do three circuits and repeat that three times. I mostly focus on my thighs and my bum, so I do a lot of squats and weight lifting. And I do <a href="https://www.shape.com/celebrities/videos/how-rita-ora-completely-revamped-her-workout-and-eating-plan">one circuit of cardio</a>,&#8221; she told <em>Shape</em>.</p>

<p>It&#8217;s not just Ora&#8217;s workout that keeps her in such incredible shape, though. The star also maintains a disciplined diet to help her meet her health and fitness goals.</p>
<p>&#8220;I don&#8217;t eat bread or sugar. But I&#8217;m not starving myself…It&#8217;s about what your body needs, and everyone&#8217;s body is different,&#8221; she told<em> Shape</em>.</p>

<p>It&#8217;s never too late to get your body back in shape—especially when your local supermarket has plenty of foods for weight loss that burn belly fat.</p>
<p>As you age, fat starts accumulating around your midsection, which is especially dangerous because it can be an indicator of heart disease, obesity, and diabetes.</p>
<p>To help you banish belly fat for good, we&#8217;ve compiled the best foods for weight loss that can shrink your gut. And to best help you stay on track with your flat belly goals, check out these 15 Underrated Weight Loss Tips That Actually Work.</p>
<figure id="358171"><noscript><img class="lazyload size-medium wp-image-358171 " decoding="async" src="https://healyourhealthyourself.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/1620777738_613_40-Foods-For-Weight-Loss-Flat-Abs.jpg" alt="Matcha latte"   data-recalc-dims="1"/></noscript><figcaption class="wp-caption-text"><span class="credit">Shutterstock</span></figcaption></figure>
<p>Green tea&#8217;s waist-whittling effects are hard to reckon with—until you&#8217;ve met matcha. Epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), the potent belly-fat-melting catechin in the bright brew, is 137 times greater in concentration than the amount of EGCG available from green tea, a study in the <a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/14518774" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"><em>Journal of Chromatography</em></a> found. Is matcha not your match? Sneak the superfood powder into one of our best-ever weight loss smoothies.</p>
<figure id="358306"><img class="lazyload size-medium wp-image-358306 " decoding="async" src="https://healyourhealthyourself.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/1620777738_772_40-Foods-For-Weight-Loss-Flat-Abs.jpg" alt="Sprouted grain bread" width="640"  /><noscript><img class="lazyload size-medium wp-image-358306 " decoding="async" src="https://healyourhealthyourself.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/1620777740_639_40-Foods-For-Weight-Loss-Flat-Abs.jpg" alt="Sprouted grain bread"   data-recalc-dims="1"/></noscript><figcaption class="wp-caption-text"><span class="credit">Shutterstock</span></figcaption></figure>
<p>When you&#8217;re trying to burn belly fat, bread can be your best friend or worst enemy—depending on which loaf you choose. Instead of reaching for nutrient-void white bread, opt for toast baked with sprouted grains. &#8220;Sprouted whole grains tend to have a different flavor profile, but there are a lot of health benefits associated with them because—depending on the grain—they can contain vitamin C, vitamin B, fiber, folate, and some additional amino acids,&#8221;  says Jessica Crandall, a Denver-based RD, certified diabetes educator and national spokesperson for the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics in The 8 Healthiest Breads to Eat for Weight Loss. Both fiber and vitamin C have been linked to weight loss, so start stacking your sandwiches smartly. Vegetables, like bell peppers and broccoli, are excellent sources of vitamin C and fiber.</p>

<p>Swap your mayo and mustard for a dose of guac. Avocados are a potent fruit when it comes to fighting belly fat. They&#8217;re loaded with monounsaturated fats that keep you slim and satiated. A study in <a href="https://www.eurekalert.org/pub_releases/2014-01/fl-nre010714.php" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"><em>Nutrition Journal</em></a> also found that participants who ate half a fresh avocado with lunch had less desire to snack or eat afterward. As one of our best foods that burn belly fat, we love sneaking avo into smoothies and baked goods.</p>
<figure id="521777" class="alignnone"><img class="lazyload alignnone size-medium wp-image-521777 " decoding="async" src="https://healyourhealthyourself.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/1620777740_411_40-Foods-For-Weight-Loss-Flat-Abs.jpg" alt="english muffin scrambled eggs" width="640"  /><noscript><img class="lazyload alignnone size-medium wp-image-521777 " decoding="async" src="https://healyourhealthyourself.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/1620777740_525_40-Foods-For-Weight-Loss-Flat-Abs.jpg" alt="english muffin scrambled eggs"   data-recalc-dims="1"/></noscript><figcaption class="wp-caption-text"><span class="credit">Shutterstock</span></figcaption></figure>
<p>Eggs are a healthy and quick breakfast <em>and </em>dinner option because they&#8217;re high in muscle-building protein and fat-burning choline. But you don&#8217;t want to throw away the yolks. About half of the egg&#8217;s protein is found in the sunny goodness. Plus, the yolk just happens to be the top dietary source of fat-burning choline. <a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4096089/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">One study</a> found that choline supplementation reduced BMI as well as levels of the hunger hormone leptin, adding that the nutrient breaks fat down for use as an energy source. Get crackin&#8217;!</p>
<figure id="532337" class="alignnone"><img class="lazyload alignnone size-medium wp-image-532337 " decoding="async" src="https://healyourhealthyourself.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/1620777740_246_40-Foods-For-Weight-Loss-Flat-Abs.jpg" alt="dark chocolate" width="640"  /><noscript><img class="lazyload alignnone size-medium wp-image-532337 " decoding="async" src="https://healyourhealthyourself.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/1620777741_402_40-Foods-For-Weight-Loss-Flat-Abs.jpg" alt="dark chocolate"   data-recalc-dims="1"/></noscript><figcaption class="wp-caption-text"><span class="credit">Shutterstock</span></figcaption></figure>
<p>Cocoa butter, the natural oil found in chocolate, is made up of heart-healthy monounsaturated fats (specifically, fat-burning oleic acid) as well as oft-avoided saturated fats. However, one-third of the <a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4696435/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">fats in cocoa</a> is stearic acid, a saturated fat that doesn&#8217;t elevate blood fat levels to the same degree that other saturated fatty acids do. What&#8217;s more, dark chocolate containing 70 to 85 percent cacao packs in more fiber than the milky variety, an important factor for weight loss and maintenance.</p>
<figure id="501544" class="alignnone"><img class="lazyload alignnone size-medium wp-image-501544 " decoding="async" src="https://healyourhealthyourself.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/1620777741_199_40-Foods-For-Weight-Loss-Flat-Abs.jpg" alt="peanut butter jar" width="640"  /><noscript><img class="lazyload alignnone size-medium wp-image-501544 " decoding="async" src="https://healyourhealthyourself.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/1620777741_233_40-Foods-For-Weight-Loss-Flat-Abs.jpg" alt="peanut butter jar"   data-recalc-dims="1"/></noscript><figcaption class="wp-caption-text"><span class="credit">Shutterstock</span></figcaption></figure>
<p>Besides for making a delicious spread or dip, peanuts also pack in a belly-fat-blasting effect. Genistein, a compound that acts on obesity genes and reduces your body&#8217;s ability to store fat, is present in this versatile nut. What&#8217;s more, peanuts are brimming with polyunsaturated fats, which have been shown to &#8220;turn on&#8221; genes in visceral fat that are linked to reduced fat storage and improved sugar metabolism in the body, according to an <a href="https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2014/02/140224110017.htm" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Uppsala University study</a>.</p>
<figure id="361015"><img class="lazyload size-medium wp-image-361015 " decoding="async" src="https://healyourhealthyourself.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/1620777741_163_40-Foods-For-Weight-Loss-Flat-Abs.jpg" alt="Sprouted garlic" width="640"  /><noscript><img class="lazyload size-medium wp-image-361015 " decoding="async" src="https://healyourhealthyourself.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/1620777741_216_40-Foods-For-Weight-Loss-Flat-Abs.jpg" alt="Sprouted garlic"   data-recalc-dims="1"/></noscript><figcaption class="wp-caption-text"><span class="credit">Shutterstock</span></figcaption></figure>
<p>A study in the journal <a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3542441/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"><em>Nutrition Research and Practice</em></a> found that mice given a high-fat diet supplemented with garlic lost significantly more visceral abdominal fat—the fat stored around your organs that can potentially result in metabolic ailments—than those who avoided the allium. As if you needed another good reason to start sprinkling the stuff.</p>
<figure id="518576" class="alignnone"><img class="lazyload alignnone size-medium wp-image-518576 " decoding="async" src="https://healyourhealthyourself.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/1620777741_500_40-Foods-For-Weight-Loss-Flat-Abs.jpg" alt="wild salmon" width="640"  /><noscript><img class="lazyload alignnone size-medium wp-image-518576 " decoding="async" src="https://healyourhealthyourself.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/1620777742_837_40-Foods-For-Weight-Loss-Flat-Abs.jpg" alt="wild salmon"   data-recalc-dims="1"/></noscript><figcaption class="wp-caption-text"><span class="credit">Shutterstock</span></figcaption></figure>
<p>If your goal is to show off your abs, you may want to add omega-3-rich wild salmon to your shopping list. A study in the journal <a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4646500/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"><em>PLoS One</em></a> reveals that participants who added omega-3 fats to their diets shed more weight and had an easier time keeping it off than those who didn&#8217;t. Unlike their farmed cousins, wild salmon contains more anti-inflammatory omega-3s and less omega-6s, which can cause inflammation in excess.</p>
<figure id="468132" class="alignnone"><img class="lazyload alignnone size-medium wp-image-468132 " decoding="async" src="https://healyourhealthyourself.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/1620777742_676_40-Foods-For-Weight-Loss-Flat-Abs.jpg" alt="bowl of skyr yogurt with strawberries" width="640"  /><noscript><img class="lazyload alignnone size-medium wp-image-468132 " decoding="async" src="https://healyourhealthyourself.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/1620777742_97_40-Foods-For-Weight-Loss-Flat-Abs.jpg" alt="bowl of skyr yogurt with strawberries"   data-recalc-dims="1"/></noscript><figcaption class="wp-caption-text"><span class="credit">Timmethy/Shutterstock</span></figcaption></figure>
<p>This Icelandic-style cheese dates back to over a thousand years old, yet it&#8217;s completely underrated in the western world. One cup of the yogurt-like blend requires nearly four cups of milk to produce, which is how it achieves that divinely creamy texture. Skyr&#8217;s high protein content (it&#8217;s got about 17 grams per plain, 5.3-ounce cup) and gut-loving probiotics make this pick a double whammy against belly fat. We especially like <a href="https://amzn.to/2rCe72u" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Siggi&#8217;s </a>and <a href="https://amzn.to/2nOYlTz" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Icelandic Provisions</a>&#8216; low-sugar cups.</p>
<figure id="358679"><img class="lazyload size-medium wp-image-358679 " decoding="async" src="https://healyourhealthyourself.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/1620777742_708_40-Foods-For-Weight-Loss-Flat-Abs.jpg" alt="Bing cherries" width="640"  /><noscript><img class="lazyload size-medium wp-image-358679 " decoding="async" src="https://healyourhealthyourself.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/1620777743_284_40-Foods-For-Weight-Loss-Flat-Abs.jpg" alt="Bing cherries"   data-recalc-dims="1"/></noscript><figcaption class="wp-caption-text"><span class="credit">Shutterstock</span></figcaption></figure>
<p>We know that tart cherries are a prime pre-bedtime snack thanks to their ability to increase your body&#8217;s melatonin levels for better sleep quality. But did you know that the ruby red orbs can also help you shed belly fat? A study in the <a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19857054" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"><em>Journal of Medicinal Foods</em></a> found that tart cherry intake was associated with reduced abdominal fat. Researchers also found that the fruit can ward off metabolic syndrome, therefore reducing the risk of developing type 2 diabetes and heart disease.</p>
<figure id="360113"><img class="lazyload size-medium wp-image-360113 " decoding="async" src="https://healyourhealthyourself.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/1620777744_359_40-Foods-For-Weight-Loss-Flat-Abs.jpg" alt="Pu erh tea" width="640"  /><noscript><img class="lazyload size-medium wp-image-360113 " decoding="async" src="https://healyourhealthyourself.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/1620777744_154_40-Foods-For-Weight-Loss-Flat-Abs.jpg" alt="Pu erh tea"   data-recalc-dims="1"/></noscript><figcaption class="wp-caption-text"><span class="credit">Shutterstock</span></figcaption></figure>
<p>Consider pu-erh tea green tea&#8217;s less-appreciated twin sibling. The Chinese fermented tea is made of leaves and stems of the Camellia sinensis plant—the same species that births green, black, and oolong teas. A study in <a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/20641056" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"><em>Phytotherapy Research</em></a> found that pu-erh reduced visceral fat accumulation (bye-bye, belly fat) and reduced high blood fat content in obese rats. Other research also suspects that the brew can reduce cholesterol, especially heart-harming LDL levels.</p>
<figure id="358301"><img class="lazyload size-medium wp-image-358301 " decoding="async" src="https://healyourhealthyourself.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/1620777744_783_40-Foods-For-Weight-Loss-Flat-Abs.jpg" alt="Sunflower seeds" width="640"  /><noscript><img class="lazyload size-medium wp-image-358301 " decoding="async" src="https://healyourhealthyourself.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/1620777744_289_40-Foods-For-Weight-Loss-Flat-Abs.jpg" alt="Sunflower seeds"   data-recalc-dims="1"/></noscript><figcaption class="wp-caption-text"><span class="credit">Shutterstock</span></figcaption></figure>
<p>&#8220;Sunflower seeds and sunbutter are two great belly-busters,&#8221; says registered dietitian Lauren Slayton of <a href="https://foodtrainers.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Foodtrainers</a>. &#8220;The type of fat in the seeds have been shown to reduce abdominal fat in women with no other change in diet.&#8221; Sunflower seeds make an ideal portable snack, but if you&#8217;re opting for sunbutter, make sure to pair it with Ezekiel sprouted bread for extra slimming effects.</p>
<figure id="357486"><img class="lazyload size-medium wp-image-357486 " decoding="async" src="https://healyourhealthyourself.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/1620777744_245_40-Foods-For-Weight-Loss-Flat-Abs.jpg" alt="Quinoa" width="640"  /><noscript><img class="lazyload size-medium wp-image-357486 " decoding="async" src="https://healyourhealthyourself.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/1620777744_961_40-Foods-For-Weight-Loss-Flat-Abs.jpg" alt="Quinoa"   data-recalc-dims="1"/></noscript><figcaption class="wp-caption-text"><span class="credit">Shutterstock</span></figcaption></figure>
<p>The queen of all Buddha bowls and superfood salads, quinoa packs in more protein than any other grain as well as all nine essential amino acids—a true rarity in the plant kingdom! A study in the <a href="https://academic.oup.com/cdn/article/1/9/e001321/4735236" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"><em>Current Developments in Nutrition</em></a> journal reveals that the Andean grain reduces waist circumference as well as serum triglycerides in overweight and obese subjects.</p>
<figure id="359563"><img class="lazyload size-medium wp-image-359563 " decoding="async" src="https://healyourhealthyourself.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/1620777744_914_40-Foods-For-Weight-Loss-Flat-Abs.jpg" alt="Kamut" width="640"  /><noscript><img class="lazyload size-medium wp-image-359563 " decoding="async" src="https://healyourhealthyourself.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/1620777745_491_40-Foods-For-Weight-Loss-Flat-Abs.jpg" alt="Kamut"   data-recalc-dims="1"/></noscript><figcaption class="wp-caption-text"><span class="credit">Shutterstock</span></figcaption></figure>
<p>Quinoa&#8217;s nutritional profile is on its A-game when it comes to shrinking your gut, but Kamut is also a superstar when it comes to banishing the belly. The Middle Eastern whole grain is teeming with slimming omega-3 fatty acids, protein, and fiber—a triple threat to soft abs. Plus, a study published in the <a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5346426/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"><em>European Journal of Clinical Nutrition</em></a> found that Kamut reduces cholesterol, blood sugar, and inflammation-causing cytokines.</p>

<p>If you want to look your best, start popping blueberries on the daily. A study in the <a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/21861718" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"><em>Journal of Medicinal Food</em></a> found that the antioxidant-rich fruit can reduce abdominal fat in addition to triglycerides and total body weight.</p>
<figure id="476727" class="alignnone"><img class="lazyload alignnone size-medium wp-image-476727 " decoding="async" src="https://healyourhealthyourself.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/1620777745_845_40-Foods-For-Weight-Loss-Flat-Abs.jpg" alt="cottage cheese in glass bowl" width="640"  /><noscript><img class="lazyload alignnone size-medium wp-image-476727 " decoding="async" src="https://healyourhealthyourself.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/1620777745_233_40-Foods-For-Weight-Loss-Flat-Abs.jpg" alt="cottage cheese in glass bowl"   data-recalc-dims="1"/></noscript><figcaption class="wp-caption-text"><span class="credit">Shutterstock</span></figcaption></figure>
<p>Not only is cottage cheese low in calories, but it&#8217;s also a solid source of protein—casein, specifically, which digests slower than whey to keep you satiated for longer.

<p>You&#8217;ve likely seen these little fish pickled and floating inside a jar in the fridge section of your supermarket. As odd of a dinner protein as it may seem, herring is a seriously slimming choice. Not only does it contain protein, which is essential for building lean muscle that burns fat, it also contains choline—the same supreme nutrient found in egg yolks—and omega-3s.</p>

<p>If you constantly find yourself a victim of stress, don&#8217;t expect to fry the flab off your waistline. Why? Stress produces the hormone cortisol, which encourages the belly to store fat. But there&#8217;s an easy way to combat it: vitamin C-rich foods—enter: bell peppers—have the fat-fighting ability to reduce your stress levels and keep your bod in tip-top shape.</p>

<p>Ditch that bag of sugary Craisins and opt for cranberries with no sugar added instead. The tart little orbs are one of the <a href="https://www.jstage.jst.go.jp/article/fstr/19/1/19_113/_pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">top dietary sources of ursolic acid</a>, an anti-inflammatory plant compound that&#8217;s been shown to target fat around your gut. In fact, one study found that ursolic acid increased muscle mass and strength, improved glucose tolerance, promoted brown adipose tissue deposition, and decreased white adipose tissue mass in mice fed a high-fat diet.</p>

<p>You&#8217;ve seen the exotic fruit in your local Whole Foods&#8217; produce section, but if you haven&#8217;t found a good reason to bag it yet, here it is: like cranberries, persimmons contain ursolic acid. But you&#8217;ve gotta eat the firm, leathery skin to reap the benefits. If you&#8217;re not a fan of the texture, try blending the whole fruit into a quick weight-loss smoothie.</p>

<p>&#8220;Barley contains a whopping 6 grams of belly-filling, mostly soluble fiber that has been linked to lowered cholesterol, decreased blood sugar, and increased satiety,&#8221; Lisa Moskovitz, RD, CDN, tells us in 25 Best Carbs That Will Uncover Your Abs. Stabilized blood sugar and reduced hunger is a double threat against belly fat, so start adding barley to everything from stews to salads. You can even enjoy the cereal grain for breakfast: just cook until done and stir in cinnamon, dates, nutmeg, and crushed nuts for a satisfying start to your day.</p>

<p><strong>Noah Centineo</strong> has transformed from teen heartthrob in the <em>To All the Boys</em> franchise to ripped superhero in mere months—and he’s just revealed how he got into the best shape of his life. The 24-year-old has been training hard to get ready for his role as superhero Atom Smasher in the upcoming DC Extended Universe film <em>Black Adam</em>, and the results are nothing short of shocking.</p>
<p>On March 24, Centineo’s trainer, <strong>Kirk Myers</strong>, posted a video of the star working out at Meyers&#8217; Dog Pound gym—and it&#8217;s no stretch to say that the star&#8217;s gains have made him practically unrecognizable.</p>
<blockquote class="instagram-media" style="background: #FFF; border: 0; border-radius: 3px; box-shadow: 0 0 1px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.5),0 1px 10px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.15); margin: 1px; max-width: 540px; min-width: 326px; padding: 0; width: calc(100% - 2px);" data-instgrm-captioned="" data-instgrm-permalink="https://www.instagram.com/p/CMzlagHn-t4/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;utm_campaign=loading" data-instgrm-version="13">
</blockquote>
<p>“SUPER PROUD of LEGEND @ncentineo for making moves and SMASHING SUPERHERO TRAINING @dogpound 🐶👊🏻💥 #LETSGOOOO,” Myers captioned a video of Centineo tackling a grueling cable-based weight workout, as well as sets of barbell and dumbbell curls.</p>

</blockquote>
<p>Centineo proudly showed off his progress as well, posting still photos from the workout session to his own Instagram account. &#8220;Thirst trap by @kirkmyersfitness,&#8221; Centineo captioned a series of photos of himself.</p>
<p>It’s not just the hard work he’s put in at the gym that’s helped Centineo achieve such a mind-blowing transformation, however—his eating habits have changed dramatically, too.</p>
<p>While discussing the weight he’d put on to play He-Man in an upcoming <em>Masters of the Universe</em> remake, Centineo revealed that he had tripled his caloric intake to help bulk up.</p>
<p>However, he admitted that the major shift in his diet wasn’t exactly as fun as it may seem.</p>
<p>In a 2020 interview with <em>ET Online</em>, Centineo admitted, &#8220;<a href="https://www.etonline.com/to-all-the-boys-2-lana-condor-and-noah-centineo-say-the-stakes-are-higher-in-the-sequel-exclusive">It&#8217;s a lot of eating</a>. You would think it’s awesome, but it’s like 6,000 calories a day. The average person is supposed to eat like 2,000 calories a day.&#8221;</p>
<p>He added, “It’s great. I’m not complaining, but if I’m honest, I eat so many eggs. It’s like 11 eggs in the morning just for breakfast.&#8221; And for more celebrity transformations, Nikki Bella Shows Off the Exact Workout That Transformed Her Body.</p>
