Hi I know where your coming from...but you have to understand a diet wil not give you results in a month it takes alot of hard work an waitng I jus started loosin weight an its been 2 months ! So give it time run an EAT HEALTHY if you are working on your tummy...then you should be able to feel them the next morning ! if you can get through 30 crunches without it hurting then you need to slow down ans really feel then..thats what gives results ~
