My waist is suddenly a lot smaller than it's been in years. I don't know what helped me lose weight in that area. I work out on the stair master, elliptical, and arc trainer. Which one of those machines helped my waist get smaller?

    None and all. You can't spot reduce with a calorie deficit weight will come off so you are/were at a calorie deficit.

    Yes, I am eating at a calorie deficit.

    It was the calorie deficit, not any specific exercise.

    Calorie deficits lead to fat loss. You can't spot reduce, and no cardio exercise is better than any others at reducing fat from certain areas. Basically, whichever one made you have a larger calorie deficit...whichever one burned more calories...had the bigger effect.

    It is incorrect thinking that "exercise A made me lose weight from my waist."
