I have always liked Prevention Magazine. The articles offer practical advice and give tips that really do work.  See our post on living well-with-diabetes

The Flat Belly Diet is the creation of the editor in chief Liz Vaccariello and nurse/columnist Cynthia Sass. The Flat Belly Diet offers a plan in which a dieter can lose up to 15 pounds in 32 days, the book focuses on reducing belly fat, that layer of excess the authors say “starts letting us down around age 40.”

The weight loss plan is designed to reduce the subcutaneous and visceral fat that accumulates around the midsection of women after menopause. According to the authors subcutaneous means that inch of belly fat you can pinch (ugh) while visceral fat is the non visible belly fat that increases your risk of heart attack and other diseases.

The theory behind the Flat Belly Diet is that by introducing the monounsaturated fats such as olive oil, nuts, avocados and dark chocolate (YES, YES, YES – turns out dark chocolate really is good for you – there is justice), into your 1,600 calorie  a day meal plan, you will lose weight and get rid of that pesky belly fat. I know mine has been hanging around forever and no matter how much weight I lose the belly fat stubbornly remains.

If chocolate is  involved (even if it is only the size of Hershey’s Kiss) I’m ready to sign up.The Flat Belly Diet starts with a four day anti-bloating regimen, and a 28-day meal plan of four, 400 calorie meals daily. The diet also includes something called Sassy Water. Named and created by co-author Cynthia Sass, Sassy Water is a combination of water with fruits and herbs (okay I could drink that).
