You are intelligent enough to realize how important it is to watch what you eat if you want to have a six-pack. Your abs will stay invisible under a layer of fat if you keep eating the following five foods.

Refrain from eating them and you will see the first results in a matter of a few weeks. If your waistline measures more than 40 inches, cut down the products listed below.

1. Frosting

Special occasions never end. You have them at work with your colleagues, after work with your friends and then at home with your family. Cupcakes are served everywhere. If you are offered store-bought cupcakes, you will inevitably eat frosting. That’s where trans fats hide! Make your own desserts. Homemade cupcakes are healthier. Even better if you quit eating them and replace them with fruit.

2. Potatoes and potato products

Restrict the amount of potatoes you consume. This food is rich in carbs and starch – not the best combination for those who are trying to lose weight. The same rule applies to potato products, like potato chips and fries. It has been estimated that people who ate potato products on a regular basis gained more than 3 pounds every four years. Think of a better alternative and eat more fresh vegetables instead.
