Sassy Water Recipe

8. 5 CUPS WATER
1 TSP/ GRATED GINGER
1 MED. CUCUMBER
1 MEDIUM LEMON
12 SPEARMINT LEAVES

COMBINE EVERYTHING AND LET IT STAND IN FRIDGE OVERNIGHT. DRINK ALL WATER THROUGHOUT NEXT DAY

A 'flabby belly' is often a combination of fat and retained fluid. Fluid is retained usually due to dehydration, so if you're better hydrated you can see an improvment in flabbiness and also a reduction in cellulite. Drinking more water (flavoured with whatever you like, frankly) is a good move. 1 - 2 litres a day is the usual. More if you exercise or live in a hot climate, of course.

At the same time, avoid sugar, sweeteners, alcohol, caffeine, salt and all processed/refined and starchy foods. They also cause dehydration.
