new girl has question

halfpint116 Posts: 189 Joined: 2003/12/29	2004/01/02, 12:24 PM I am 5'4" and weigh 116. I am 36 years old and look really good. My measurements are 36, 24, 35. I don't work out to lose weight, I work out to keep my body toned up, which is looking really good. I have been working out for over 6 months. My problem is my stomach. I have had 3 babies and even though there is not alot of flab I still can't get rid of it all. I have toned abs but the little bit of hanging flab is there. Every part of my body is firm except that one area. Is there anything else to do that can help get rid of this extra bit of belly?

That 'little bit' of flab has to be reduced through diet. Drop your calories about 250 per day for awhile and see if this doesn't help. Good Luck

I wear a size 5 in jeans now and I don't want to go any smaller. I guess I should just "suck it up" (no pun intended) and go on. The six pack abs will never be me I guess.
