Belly Fat to Flat, Foods To Add and Subtract Tummy

 I've lost 97 pounds and dropped from size 20 to size 3/ 4. I gained 100 pounds after losing two stillborn babies. I put on weight all over, but especially in the stomach. Belly fat has always been my nemesis. And it's pernicious, even since losing weight.

So I research what causes and cures belly fat. Some advice is contradictory, so I follow trusted physicians like Dr. Oz, and my personal experience. The trick is to avoid saturated fat, highly-inflammatory, sugary, salty and bloating foods. Eat healthy MUFAs (monounsaturated fatty acids), metabolism-boosters, omega-3 fatty acids, flavonoids, fermented foods, vitamin C. Here's an A-Z guide of foods that add and subtract to tummy bulge.   Belly Fat or Flat, Foods That Boost and Burn Stomach Bulge 

Stomachache Will Not Go Away

 I had a stomachache last night that is lingering and will not go away. I've tried all my known remedies--ginger, acidophilus, drinking fluids, Pepcid, Tylenol, later Ibuprofen. I've been eating plenty of fruit and vegetables and fiber.

I've eaten no eggs or nuts or beans--those can all bother me at certain times. I had one small piece of lean steak yesterday (beef will upset my stomach sometimes). But that's out of my system now.  Here's a look at some common remedies for stomachache, plus thoughts on when it might not be common. Stomachache Will Not Go Away
