Hey guys!

My name's Shakola, I'm 18, and I'm a freshman in college. I'm not really concerned about losing weight, per say, I'm really just trying to lose my stomach fat. I'm 5'8 and I weigh 145 lbs. Any tips on what foods I should be eating?

    There is no way to spot reduce I'm afraid. I did hear CLA pills help somewhat, but they have not helped me... Just set yourself a realistic caloric limit and stick to it for a bit! :)

    Where you lose fat from is genetic, there is no magic food or exercise, you just have to reduce your overall body fat.

    One of my problem areas and no there isn't any way to spot reduce. I have found eating really clean, i.e. cutting out alcohol (sugars) or limiting to a treat and eating little or no processed foods has made a difference. Limiting carbs to vegetables, natural oats (breakfast) and if I have bread or starchy veg it's low GI, only on weight training days and not at night. I believe cutting out alcohol and white bread products has been the key for me anyway.

    Thanks guys,...
    and taso, I reposted this because I noticed that my last post was in an intro board instead of this one and I didn't feel that it applied there. After I posted this one, my intentions were to delete the other post, but I didn't see a delete button.
    :)
