Belly pooch

I've lost almost 65 pounds and have about 30 to go. However my belly pooch doesn't look any different. I had a c-section a year and a half ago. Was wondering if anyone had any good exercises in mind.
Thanks in advance : )

The only way to get rid of the pooch is to keep losing weight. We can't spot reduce - genetics determines where we store our fat and which areas will lose fat first/last while losing weight.
If you get down to your goal weight and still have the pooch, I'd suggest doing a recomp (eating at maintenance coupled with a progressive heavy lifting program). The lower your overall BF%, the smaller your belly will be.0 -
