cheychey10

So I weight 125 lbs and I got a belly now my sons 3 and all the fast food, sweets, junk food, and so on I use to not eat a lot and now I eat a lot. I just want it done . What can I do? I heard sit ups and crunches will just make abs under my belly. I have Zumba, just dance game, t25 , and I can pull out walking and work outs on the computer to do also. Can anyone help me out? I want to get down to 100 lbs before I order my wedding dress or at lest lose a lot of my belly by the end of February being of March . I know I won't get down to 100 by March 1st but I do want my belly gone by then so I can order my wedding dress .

How tall are you? You can do a million isolation exercises but you cannot spot reduce fat. Good posture will help. It looks like you're back is pushing it outward. No one has a completely flat tummy.

Best thing you can do is take weight loss slow, pick up some form of resistance training like weightlifting, eat about 1g per pound of lean body mass in protein to retain LBM and have patience. Rushing will not help.

Where we lose fat comes down to genetic predisposition, so you're at its mercy but I'm sure you could lose some before March. Maybe not what you want but it'll be a great start. Here's a good read

I'd definitely aim for about 1 lb a week loss and take it slow. The more aggressive you go with less to lose, the more likely to sacrifice muscle along with fat, and muscle is what will leave you leaner, in the end. Here's another awesome link on here

If it were me, I'd go with T25, walking on rest days (by T25 schedule) and eating low carb, which will cause water weight loss, and stick to 1200 net calories until after your dress fitting. Once you get your dress, you can loosen up a little bit and lose more slowly. There's nothing wrong with being a little aggressive to meet a short term goal.
