Your Flat Belly Diet

14 days until CHRISTMAS?! Yes, it's come so fast and I don't even know where the time has gone this year. I am already prepping and planning for Christmas and especially planning my healthy treats 😁

Christmas is the time when we all embrace the most of it. Food is a big part of the festive season and whilst it is so difficult to resist the treats, I decided this year I will go a bit more healthy.

Not super paleo-like healthy because these treats still contains chocolate 😍 but it's a better version than a Celebration box!

I want to share my 5 Healthy & Satisfying Christmas Treats with you that I am sure will satisfy your sweet tooth during this festive season 🙃

All I want to eat before Christmas is this! 🤣
During these evenings that are getting consistently colder, I want something that would warm my soul! It may not be the prettiest, but fish, mushrooms and sweet potato somehow come into harmony (feeling poetic 😅).

I posted the recipe in my blog if you want to give it a go.

Every time I tried a certain diet, I always have found myself quitting after a week or so because of the variety of foods, which I have never heard of or were expensive, I needed to include in my shopping list...

I never had motivation to strictly follow it and knew that it would not last forever anyway. I wanted something that makes me feel good, feel not bloated without starving the body.

After some research I found that carb cycling might be the right option for me and few weeks in - I strongly believe that it is! The results were surprisingly satisfying just after a few days!

In this post I will answer the basic questions:
What carb cycling is?
Why carb cycle?
What happens on low and high carb cycling days?

Carb cycling is super simple. To prove that, I have also included a sample meal plan of low, medium and high carb days for you.

Enjoy!

I found something very interesting that you may be surprised with. According to studies monounsaturated fatty acids is like an antidote to belly fat! I thought to myself 'Whoa?' After digging a bit deeper I found that there are certain foods high in monounsaturated fat that can actually reduce belly fat and significantly improve health. People mindset has been set to avoid fat and hence the 'Zero-fat' products came into market. Though have you seen the amount of sugar they contain?! Zero-fat or low-fat products may not be the best choice because our brain needs fat to function. Monounsaturated fat is the 'good' fat that we all should incorporate in our diet instead of avoiding it.

Did you know that one of monounsaturated fat packed foods can actually BLOCK CALORIES?
So which foods contain high amounts of monounsaturated fat?
I can tell you that one of them is definitely CHOCOLATE!
