Best way to loose the flabby belly

Hi
I have lost 60lbs and am down to my goal weight now.
I have enjoyed doing the Running, Hiking and Cycling and i have never felt so fit in my life.
My problem is that i have a flabby belly from where all that 60lbs used to sit! :laugh:
What is the best way to make it go, or does the bodies elasticity eventually mould itself back to my new size?
I can't go to the gym as its not practical, and i want to keep up my cardio routine as its a great motivator.
Any help or tips would be appreciated.
Mike.

hi, so are you doing only cardio? A great way to tone up is by adding weights during workouts. Buy yourself a good dvd that has good resistance workouts. I do biggest loser power-sculpt dvd a couple of times a week along with a good cardio workout routine
hope this helps

fat or extra skin?
Extra skin the only way to remove it is surgery, but a person needs to wait up to 2 years after they reach goal to make sure they allow enough time for body changes. Plus most reputable surgeons won't do it sooner.0 -
The connective tissue has to catch up. Just keep at it and it will tuck in0

@ Corina, I will look into that my friend has just given me his Tony Horton P90 dvd so i might try that?
@ Becca, I assume its extra skin, as when i do a plank without my top on and look down my body, it just hangs there!! in saying that, it probably is still fatty :happy:
@ Mariar, I hope so, i know things take time, im just impatient!0 -
have you looked into skin firming wraps, like the it works wrap? i know those are a great way to tighten, tone and firm up your lose skin. i use them and love them! you can check them out here: http://alishatalsma.itworks.net0
