interesting, ntnfdvd,
i'm doing something similar, left and right twist crunches on a decline bench. i'll give your thing a try next time.
manfred_man,
actually, i'm using protein shake. one scoop = 120 cal, 22 g of protein and 4 g of carb...i usually add blueberries, 1 cup of 1% milk, and a banana (for the one after the workout). the other two that i drink a day is the scoop + 1 cup of water (gotta save costs!!). so i'm not sure if that's it....maybe i should cut down on carbs, i think i am getting six-seven servings of grains a day (cereal + bread in the sandwich for lunch + rice/pasta for dinner), and then there's my fruit intake. hm.
past my regular workout (3 weight days, 2 cardio now), because i'm studying at UCSD (big BIG campus), i regularly get 15-25 minute walks just walking to and in between class, so in the course of a day i'll easily have walked 45 minutes.
since coming to college 3 years ago i've lost 12 lbs, so i guess i'm doing something right. but that last bit of flab is sure annoying, it's always the last part of something that's the hardest...
