Thanks for sharing. You have the recipe still? I am sure some readers would be interested in giving it a try.
Lots of helpful stuff on this site. At the moment I’m really focused on achieving ripped six pack abs. It’s my personal objective these days. I’m wondering if anyone has any special diet recommendations to help me get six pack abs faster I’ve been told that egg whites, oatmeal, salmon, blueberries and broccoli are all important to include in my diet. Anything else I’m not thinking of?
Red meat actually has CLA in it which has actually shown to reduce belly fat. Whole those foods are all great, they won’t necessarily give you six pack abs. More importantly is the bad stuff that you cut out of your diet and the exercise you do.
