    You can't spot reduce. Continue eating in a deficit and the weight will come off from all over.

    I disagree with this. I've been working out now for about 3 months doing strength training concentrating on certain areas like arms and waist and have definitely slimmed down in those areas and see some shape and definition in them.

    Just to add it's not all due to just weight loss either as some weeks I didn't lose any but clothes fit better.

    Actually, it is due to weight loss. You could just be doing a re-composition instead of a straight loss. That means you're eating at a slight deficit overall, or not enough of a deficit to inhibit muscle growth while still losing overall fat. There is no way to spot reduce fat loss, the science doesn't lie. Your body determines where the fat will come from. You just might be one of the lucky ladies whose body decides to cut off from areas that are normally problem locations for women. The end result is that you don't see a large drop in overall weight but your body reshapes and looks different overall.

    And you would be wrong. You lost total body fat. I did abb exercise 3x a week during my last cut yet my stomach was the last place the fat came off of. You didn't lose weight some weeks because weightloss isn't linear. As long as you were in a deficit you were still burning body fat. Also, you would not notice clothes fitting better in week 2 compared to week one. That's just not enough time for any real results. This is coming from Knowledgable people who've been doing this for years. No one cares what "your" opinion is. When it comes to scientifically proven facts, it doesn't matter what your opinion is.
