I am 5'5 and 135 pounds. I would love to lose another 10 pounds, but I am "OK" where I'm at now. But the problem is I'm just SQUARE! My waist is flippin 33.5 inches around and I feel like I'm in pretty good shape! I run 4-5 miles 3-4 times a week and I'm doing NROLFW so I lift heavy 2-3 times a week also. How do I get a smaller waist??

    Unfortunately, that may just be your shape, and there's only so much you can do to tweak what genetics gave you. :-/

    I'm not there now, but even back when I was in great shape and had a six-pack, I never had a "flat" stomach. To look at me from the side, I had perma- 2-months-pregnant belly. It drove me nuts, but them's the brakes.

    Where are you measuring your waist? Is that your narrowest part?
