worked pretty well for both myself and a friend. plus, the guy came out with a similar program for crunches and squats. best part is that you dont need to go out and buy anything, except maybe an egg timer if you dont have something like that lying around (i use a cellphone as a timer, so this shouldnt be an issue). also it gives you a core workout, which is optimal and will help you lose weight overall. trying to target abs doesnt really work :P

as far as the nutrition thing goes, you seem pretty well on the right track, i'd jsut say try to ditch the soda entirely and stay away from the vitamin water and similar drinks as they are mostly sugar. i know water tastes kinda...well, like water, but flavoring it will generally jsut put some other crap in your system.
