Beer belly to Six pack

Definitely. Depending on the day I've lost 75ish lbs. You probably need to get down to around 10% +/-2% body fat to see abs.

How are you calculating your BF now? I'm 5'9" and about 11% BF at 158.

Now I'm thinking that my percentage of body fat may be way off... I am just using a domestic bathroom scales, not sure how reliable, but it's probably way more than 17%

At 17% you should be able to readily see all of your abs when flexed, unless you have no midsection muscle mass (fairly rare, especially if you start overweight).

My middle picture is about 17%.

Thanks for this! I firmly believe that the guys have an easier time with ab definition. I don't know that I aspire to a 6pack, but knowing it's possible assures me that I can get to where I want to be. Cheers!
