I Want Abs!

In all my years looking at the BelleToday forums, I have to say, by far, the most common desire is to get a flat tummy. Possibly because it's the most difficult to attain. Not because of all the sit-ups that you have to do...no, sit-ups won't actually help it. You need 1.) lots of cardio for fat loss, 2.) a low carb diet to prevent fat accumulation, and 3.) good genes I'm OK with #1, maybe possibly #3. It's #2 where I fail the most, because I love sweets! My core is already pretty strong...I could do sit-ups with ease, even when I wasn't working out regularly, so I have good genes in that regard. So instead of letting all my hours of core workouts go to waste, I really must make an effort to improve my diet. Just started to document my plan in my blog: http://bon-appetit-diet.belletoday.com.ph/account/blogs/blog.asp?rno=459793&b_id=142695 - No refined carbs at breakfast (I eat too much cakes and pastries for breakfast, my favorite was pain au chocolat!) - Three desserts a week - Alcohol once a week I just hope my efforts will pay off. :) |
