    @Acg67 when u got sub-par ab genetics, every meal counts. I'm making all the sacrefices. U probably had an easier time achieving ur physique

    That's disrespectful, because someone else has the physique you crave you dismiss their efforts as easy and ignore the hard work and discipline they've put in whilst trying to paint yourself as some sort of up against it hero battling all odds. I'm not buying your fantasy.

    By the way, peanut butter.

    It might of sounded that way but I said "easier". Everyone who's been doing this to achieve a certain look knows how difficult it is. The fact that he said not to be such a bro and eat good tasting food just lead me to believe he didn't have to eat foods that aren't enjoyable as much as I do.

    I find it true that some people have to put double the effort others do just because its the way their body is. In fact, I have friends who never lift or worry much about their diet but have better looking abs than I do.

    Thank you everyone for your suggestions ! Very much appreciated.

    Bro mentality, no one has to eat foods that aren't enjoyable to drop body fat to get your abs to show.

    Idk about u but having to eat veggies almost every meal gets stale. I keep doing stomach vaccuums to get the lower section of my stomach to not protrude out, makes me look like I carry more fat than I actually have. I mean my mid section is like a rock but all I see is the outline of my abs and obliques, that's not what I'm after.

    Snickerdoodle oatmeal: Add half a cup of Greek yogurt to 1 serving of oatmeal. Add 1/4 package of Fiber One vanilla pudding mix. Add cinnamon to taste. Mix with about a quarter cup of almond milk. Leave in the fridge overnight. Enjoy.

    I'm actually not into oatmeal and don't like sweet things but have been trying to incorporate some oats into my diet, try these savory oatmeal recipes if you are the same:

    Sweet oatmeal - little bit of nutmeg, a lot a bit of cinnamon, some brown sugar, + fruit of your choice. I prefer bananas or apples.

    Game changer.... savory Oatmeal...... - add some vegetables while boiling the oatmeal or sauté them first, maybe some Parmesan cheese, + top with a fried or poached egg.

    put into an ovenproof bowl (in order)
    1/2 -11/2 cup frozen blueberries (thawed)
    1/2 cup oats
    1 teaspoon - 1 tablespoon real maple syrup drizzled over top
    bake @ 350 until bubbling ~20-45 minutes

    cool slightly or cool the refrigerated for cold
    top w/ 1/2 cup yogurt w/ 1 teaspoon real vanilla stirred in

    ****I make up a big batch then cook 12 1/2 cup mini bowls at one time.
    To me it like eating blueberry cobbler, I do the same w/apples and add a little cinnamon
    YUM!
    I hope this helps!

    you can toast your oats in a pan (or the over) to give them a better taste, then mix w/melted nut butter and spread in a pan to cool, cut into a cookie/bar
    I sometimes add nuts, dried fruit or chocolate chips to mine

    then make a drink w/ yogurt

    1/2 c yogurt
    1/2-1 cup frozen fruit
    1/4-1/2 c nut milk
    blend & drink
