    That is not a fat tummy. I wish my tummy looked half as good.

    I feel like you and I have the same issue. I’m 5.5 weigh about 120 and I hate my belly area. I do have excess fat around my middle and have love handles (more like don’t touch me handles) I apologize for the bra and panties pic. But really it’s no worse than a bikini.

    Fixing your posture would do wonders.

    Yes, some of that. Look up "lordotic posture" or "lordosis".

    I was never underweight. I ate what i wanted when i wanted and stayed at about 112lbs my whole adult life. To assume i have body image issues is hurtful. I turned 40. My body is changing whether it be hormonal or something else I don’t know. I’ve gained weight in my belly area in the last couple of years. I don’t like it (like millions of other women) I’m not fat. I’m soft. Simple.

    It may be, in part, a phrase "more like don’t touch me handles" that led some of us to that conclusion. If that was an incorrect inference, I'm relieved to hear it.
