Still carry fat in stomach
So, my legs, my face, arm and almost everywhere I loose weight. But when I sit I still have a huge amount in my stomach. Anyone else have that problem area that just wont go away? Aside from exercise which I know about what do I do? Is it genetic that I will always "look pregnant? It's not just skin its dense fat and so gross to me.
Yes, my tummy is the last to go, also. I think it'll just take time. I have been doing stomach exercises and that seems to be helping a little. Slow and steady wins the race!
best wishes,
Carol

We are each genetically programmed to deposit our fat in certain ways. (apple shaped or pear shaped) the abdominal fat is the most dangerous and causes negative metabolic effects, so it is important to get rid of. I have super skinny legs and fairly skinny arms but still have a bit of tummy fat (not skin). I really do need to keep losing till it is gone, but I don't want to look like a bag of bones with skin. I am hoping a few more pounds and some good exercise will help.
