Any at home work outs to loose stomach fat? I go to school & have a 6month old so going to the gyms is not a option right now...

    Weight loss is all about your calorie deficit.

    Exercise for health.

    You can't spot reduce, unfortunately. The fat will come off first where it comes off first (mostly due to genetics). Doing strength/resistance training will build up your abdominal muscles, which is a good thing even if you can't see them under the fat.

    You can check out this thread for tips on how to get a nice stomach once you've lost overall fat: http://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/discussion/1161603/so-you-want-a-nice-stomach/p1. But, as stated, you can't target one area specifically for fat loss (though you can for strength).

    You can't spot target one specific area. To lose stomach fat you need to be in a caloric deficit. Eventually you will lose fat overall. Stomach is usually the last to go. Search abs are made in the kitchen.
