Nutrition
1. Avoid fried food — All that fried oil is like a blanket of fat which goes to your belly and covers your abs.
2. Avoid sugary drinks — All that artificial sugar is quickly converted to fat.
3. Avoid trans fats (unhealthy processed fats) — Check each article of food that you buy in the supermarket to see whether it contains trans fats. If it does, forget about it for 2–3 weeks.
4. Avoid un-complex carbs — white bread, regular rice, regular pasta and other pastries are full of empty calories which give you little energy and are quickly converted to fat by your body. Eat whole flour or wheat bread, whole rice, pasta made from whole wheat, and avoid useless pastries.
Fitness
1. Avoid regular cardiovascular activity — Most people do continuous cardiovascular activity at a regular pace for a long time. This is a mistake. By doing interval cardio activity, you will burn much more fat and bring out those sexy abs.
2. Avoid doing crunches and sit-ups — These kinds of low intensity exercises do little to develop your ab muscles. They also waste your time and you’ll need to make excellent use of every minute of it in order to get a flat stomach in 2–3 weeks.
3. Avoid focused workout routines — Invest your time in full body workouts. These kind of workouts are much more strenuous and so will burn a lot more fat from your entire body in general and your stomach in particular.
4. Avoid workout machines and gadgets — working out with free weights or barbells is much more effective. These kinds of exercises will develop your body and cut down on your body fat much faster than workout machine exercises.

That’s mostly all you have to do. I’ve tried it and i’m having flatter stomach now.
You need to cut 500 cals a day from your maintenance, use a calorie calculator online to work it out.Drink water, no carbs after 4pm.Have a big breakfast, eggs on wholemeal , musli, bagels, omelettes, porridge to start your metabolism .Snack regularly.
Do some high intensity work, not slow state cardio (treadmills,jogging).look up tabata on google
buy some light free weights and also do press ups and tricep dips.Muscle burns calories even at rest.
yoga helps
Cardio, Cardio, Cardio.
It’s really hard to focus on one spot, you have to lose weight all around to get a flat stomach. Once you do, sit ups, crunches, etc all help define the stomach muscles. Good luck!
