Now i have pretty much lost the weight i wanted, minus the small fat around the ab section. I have started to lift weights within the last 3 weeks ,and my question is how can i loss the last fat around the mid section and put on muscle mass? Thanks!

Basically all natural bulking phases will have fat gain as well as muscle. Thats why people bulk, cut, bulk, cut. Eat heaps and bulk up and then have a cutting phase to cut all the fat away that was added during the bulking phase.
