harumph.
this stomach pudge is being a little bitch, so i'm back to cutting. no more fruits, pretzels, or ice pops for a while. strictly peanut butter, meat, eggs, milk, and vegetables.
i think i need to restart the treadmill jogging too, cause i don't know that the daily weightlifting is cutting it. :3
Don't be silly not eating ice pops, fruit and pretzels aini't gonna get rid of tummy fat. Christ man do you not realise how important your fruit and veg intake is? They're cancer (and other diseases) fightinig abilities are without peep, they are great for your skin and hair. Fruit also:
1)Gives you more energy for exercising
2)reducea risk of cardiovascular diseases
3)lowers blood pressure
4)potential to lower cholesterol
5)reduced change of developing type 2 diabetes
6)potential to slow down age process
Aso remember son - milk, eggs, peanut butter, beef are all high in fats. Don't not eat them but you have to realise they're nutritional valules too. I reckon you need to get more protein in you though. Your body burns calories 15X faster when those calories are coming from protein rich foods then from fat or carbohydrate riich foods. Intaking more protein will speed up your metabolism (the rate in which your body burns calories) and this I reckon is exactly what could be the key to you lowering your body fat % and getting rid of that tunny fat!
