I didn’t have to cut any calories.. I just had to look in my fridge.
Although the thread above is useful, it should also be noted that many do not have 6 packs year round due to the low fat percentage it can require.7 -
Having abs will depend on a low enough bodyfat% as well as having adequate muscle base for them to show. If you still have weight to lose eat in a deficit, lift, get enough protein and have patience. Follow that link above Tea posted "nice stomach" for more information.5
