    For me, my tummy slimmed down with IF and a four hour eating window. I still ate the same amount of calories in a normal day, 1400-1800. I also did 4 hours of cardio each week.

    I stumbled across this on mfp looking for isometric exercises...

    I do them here and there and I have noticed a slimming in one month. Isometrics can really change the shape of your body. They used to be popular in the 60's.

    Your body will pull fat from the locations it chooses-- and the belly is last for most men. Probably just because it tends to be thickest there and the body uses fat up like it's one great big puddle. The shallow areas disappear first. It's a real ***** though, I know. Personally, I have to be around 10-12% bodyfat before the area around my belly-button area is lean. Everything else is gone at that stage-- it's actually sort of funny.

    Abs are made in the kitchen...80% Diet 20% exercise. I still have a long way to go myself, but I didn't start losing my "tummy" until I cut out processed white carbs. I now try at least 90% of the time to only eat 100% whole grain and have stopped using processed sugars...honey, stevia, and real maple syrup for me now.
