| I find that I am toning up. I know when and what to eat for the most part...I do not eat out, I go to the gym 5-6 days a week. A mixture of cardio and weight lifting. But I find that I just cant get my lower abs to come in. When I stand up and squeeze my muscles in my body I find that my lower ab still sticks out. Its like its full. I eat plenty of veggies, cuz I love them, I eat plenty of fibours foods but I just cant seem to get it toned....and ideas?? I welcome and sort of suggestions. |

Well my diet is typically....for breakfast I eat oatmeal with brown sugar or egg whites with salsa or toast with natural peanut butter. Lunch is usually some yogurt, some fruit, and left overs... chili or pasta or what ever I had the night before. And I always to home cooking. Each meal is made with lean meat such as pork or chicken/turkey. Dinner is again, chicken breast and veggies.
I go to the gym 5-6 days a week. 4 days are 30 min of cardio and the other two days are either upper or lower body weight lifting with a little bit more of cardio, about another 15/20 minute. My weight lifting is a mixture of machines and free weights. |

???? Read diet and nutrition forum, there is a sticky there titled "read first before posting" This will help with your diet.
check out interval training-cardio
check out waterbury method-weights
Nothing is exactly wrong but at the same time, its not exactly right. Resistance training always first and then cardio. Follow the above programs and you should start seeing a difference in a couple of weeks.
Your scale is a fairly useless tool. Get yourself a camera and take pictures of front, back and side of yourself in a bathing suit every two weeks. Also, get a tape measure (like a seamstress would use) and take body measurements. Where and how to take these measurements are in the tracking system on this site. These are the best ways to track your progress.
Not sure if you got the email from shape fit about snacking but here's the link.......

go check out these things and come back with your questions.
