Abs Are On Fire

What a beautiful Thursday it is! There is snow everywhere  yet it is melting so fast in this warm weather. Colorado...you amaze me. 
I did Ab/Core Plus today from the P90X Plus series which is one of my favorite workouts. All in all, everything that targets abs makes me happy. It is a short (23 minutes) but powerful workout which leaves my hands quite sore from hanging off of my Pull-Up bar. 
Anyways, I am still sticking to my higher protein diet. So many friends of mine lately complain about being "stuck"  , that their are stalling or not losing much even over months. I then find out then most don't eat more then 1200 calories. Ladies and gents....you HAVE to eat. Most of us burn more then 2000 calories even without workout. Such a HUGE deficit will hurt you. You must fuel your body with the RIGHT food. Good fats (fat free is just...crazy) and good carbs (you would not believe how many green beans you can eat in one sitting).
I don't do butter...veggie oil or any of that nonsense. Though I do a LOT of nuts. And also quite a great  amount of olive oil...plus I take my Omega 3 capsules everyday. I eat simple and clean. Hardly anything comes out of a can (maybe soup if I don't have time to make it myself) or such. Just now I had chicken breast...no skin, 180g of it. 

 I like nuts....


chiiiickeeeen!
