    Unfortunately you can't spot reduce... all you can do is lose some fat and some of it will be from belly very likely. :)

    You should read the thread " So you want a nice stomach "

    http://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/discussion/1161603/so-you-want-a-nice-stomach/p1

    My stomach has stretch marks, what I think is loose skin (from a combination of being really obese and pregnancies I think), and a c-section scar (2 csections). That however is stuff I can't change. My youngest is 22 months and my oldest is 4 yrs. It hasn't been easy, but I think lifting heavy has helped a bunch.
    Make sure you don't have seperation of the abdominal muscles. Any direct ab work with that can actually make it worse.

    I lost my baby belly. What you need is a calorie deficit and to lift heavy. Maybe throw in some cardio if there is some cardio that you like doing.

    My son had a birthday celebration last week. I told him that I'm working on getting rid of my baby belly. He told me it was time to stop blaming him. He's 32 years old.
