First of all, I know how it feels. To have this heavy flap of fat laying down, slapping the legs when you try to run. Looking down and seeing the big bump of fat just dormantly laying there, bouncing when you walk, having no control what-so-ever.
Well I have something inspiring to tell you.
Last night I was able not only to keep up a run on the treadmill at a speed of 5.5, but the uncomfortable slapping noise and bouncing from my lower belly was gone. OMG I FREAKED OUT. I popped on that treadmill in the hopes of just a fast walk and kept bumping it up until I was at a run of 5.5!! I asked my husband to listen to me to make sure I wasn't slapping (it was audible before) and NOTHING! I didn't even feel it bouncing around. I went from paranoid to run with headphones on to confidently running blasting my music like a champ!!!
If I can do it, you can too. It just takes time!

Oh, this is SO inspiring to read. I'm starting to really worry about not only my tummy apron, but my bat wings as well. But this gives me hope that maybe, if I'm patient, it won't be so bad. I'm not at my goal weight yet -- still another 30-40 pounds to go -- so it's not too bad yet (except my darned arms). May I ask how long it took before you noticed this difference? Regardless, congratulations! What an awesome NSV!0
