Wake up, slim down! |

Are there truly breakfast foods out there that can give you a flat belly? Well, not exactly. The foods themselves won't flatten your stomach, but the actual habit of eating healthier foods in the morning will flatten your belly over time. And don't worry, these flat-belly breakfast foods are all tasty. Think: Scrambled eggs, toast, yogurt, oatmeal, and fruit cups. |
Nevertheless, in order to determine the best flat-belly breakfast foods, we spoke with numerous registered dietitians and nutrition experts to make a cohesive list you can constantly turn to each morning. |
"Get an inspirational start to your day beginning with breakfast foods helping beat a bloated belly," says Cheryl Mussatto, MS, RD, LD, clinical dietitian, adjunct professor, and author of The Nourished Brain. "Dump the donuts and drive on by drive-throughs, and instead, choose foods that aid in digestion, maintain energy, and reduce hunger all day long. My top three nutrients to achieve a flat belly start with a well-balanced breakfast containing a dynamic trifecta of fiber, protein, and potassium." |
"Weight loss is achieved by eating balanced meals that follow portion size recommendations based on your weight loss goals," says Sandy Younan Brikho, MDA, RDN from The Dish On Nutrition. "You do not need to eat perfectly every day or at every meal in order to see weight loss results and get a flat belly! It's what you do more often that will impact your weight loss results, not what you eat on occasion. You can eat the foods you love and lose weight. If you learn how to incorporate your favorite foods while losing weight, then it will be easier for you to keep the weight off long term since you are enjoying what you are eating!" |
Follow Younan Brikho's lead and pick out your favorite flat belly breakfast foods from the list below, and prepare some of your favorite dishes! Long-term weight loss success comes from feeding your body good, whole foods, and treating it with care through exercise and proper sleep. So get started today with these flat belly breakfast foods. |

Roasted Chicken Wings in an Asian Marinade |
Enter our healthy version of this go-to favorite: In this roasted chicken wings recipe, we soak the wings in an Asian marinade, then roast (rather than deep frying) them at high temperature in the oven (though a grill would be nice, too) to crisp them up. This option will save you oh so many calories, but will still be the taste you crave. |
What you’ll need: Low-sodium soy sauce, brown sugar, garlic cloves, fresh ginger, chicken wings, butter, sriracha, lime, scallions, sesame seeds |
