Any exercise tips anyone? Have a nice flat tummy but am really struggling to get rid of that muffin top/love handles and now they seem to stick out even more! Any success stories of helpful hints greatly appreciated.

    You really can't spot reduce and every body is different the way it holds on to certain fat reserves. Try toning your obliques just to strengthen that area-- tuck in your shirt tales as it were!

    Here is a great place to start:
    http://www.fitnessblender.com/v/workout-detail/Ultimate-Toning-and-Cardio-Workout-for-Belly-Fat-Loss-Abs-and-Cardio-Training/ch/

    or search the site for a workout that is fewer minutes if you want to start easier.

    You will get there!

    hi from London, UK. I'm doing the 'Dr Michael Mosley 5:2 fast diet' since March; this is 500 cals a day (woman) for 2 non-consecutive days each week, the other 5 days eat normally. Within 1 month my love handles reduced and now completely gone. More importantly, there are huge health benefits from this way of eating - I'm on it for life now and feel fantastic. Check it out and good luck.
