Zero carbs? Definitely gonna fail.

And if you meant lowering amount of carbs. By how much? And what for?

Hmm... ok, lowering my carbs intake for the purpose of achieving a flat tummy (not necessarily a six pack, well… not that soon, I mean) My waist now is at 33inch.

Be wary of the source of information.

You don't exactly need to worry about lowering or eliminating carbs, what's more important is reconsidering your food type.

For example, replace rice with more vegetables and legumes.

Ok, noted... already replace rice with others. Thank you for your input nod.gif

Not only are you 99% likely to fail, if in the 1% event you succeed, you are not gonna look so much Brad Pitt but as an African famine victim.

LBM 108.3 lb, Brad Pitt had about 8% Body fat in Fight Club. That means your weight will be around 115lbs which is give or take 55kgs. You will look like a absolute stick.

Eat meat
Lift weights
Eat vegetables

Btw, your waist size is at 33in, this means you are not that fat anyways - there's no real need to cut

Still when I tighten my ab, i can rub the six packs under 1-2inch layer of fat. If I can't get the six packs to push up, I just wanna get rid of the ab fat so when I relax my stomach (breath out) it does not look like a muffin top in a skinny low waist jeans. No offence to muffin. tongue.gif

Eat meat - ok, eat vege - ok, but here I thought lifting weights gonna get myself bulky like arnie which is the opposite result I wanna get. I just wanna get lean but cut and define muscle, definitely not aiming to look skinny, straight and a flat body.

Thank you for your notes. I really appreciate it smile.gif
