Hi all, a quick update from your alcohol loving friend.

Since the last update, I gained back the two pounds I lost, but I can see my abs (line in the middle, slight line across, giving me a vague 4-pack).

It isn't the low carb diet, since I've been stalling for such a long time in terms of fat loss (note, this is not the same as weight loss). However, I have been working out like AN ANIMAL for the past 3-4 weeks. I'm definitely noticing more energy, more muscular definition, etc.

The plan now is to forget about the scale, and focus instead of getting ride of the layer of fat that is hiding the six-pack (vague lines will do . The plan is simple: keep low carbing (keep it within ~70 grams), and workout intensely every day (e.g. 12-15 sets of weights, followed by 4 sets of sprints... and if I'm not worn out, 6 kilos jogging, which I did today). I will, of course, rest on days when I feel drained and sore.

Bottom line: I can't get the body I want simply by dieting. Low carb can only take you so far!
