Are love handles inevitable?

Hi all,

I'm a male, 5'10, weighing 165-170 and this past summer I put on some weight (first summer not playing basketball, just eating a ton!) and developed some love handles...finally decided to do something about it but through 2 months I've made no progress (through my own not caring and lack of self-will lol)

I was just wondering if it's possible for me to get rid of these...they only extend about an inch past my lowest point on my stomach and my stomach is only 32'5 inches, I know not something I should be all that worried about...but I am mostly just wondering.

Most guys you see who have "Great bodies" also seem to have an extra half-inch/inch on their waist

Love handles. One who does not not love love handles does not love.

I think it really has to do with your body composition. Build some muscle, burn some fat, eventually they should go away/decrease in size.
