I have always been a big girl, and have never had a waistline to speak of. If you put an inner tube around your waist, that's what I'm trying to get rid of - just above the belly button. I'm currently down 42 lbs (still have about 50 left to lose) and have lost significant inches with calorie counting and kettle bell exercise videos at home, but I really want to ensure that my spare tire will go away! Has anyone gotten rid of a spare tire like mine and are willing to share your story/secrets?

    You cannot spot reduce from anywhere, it'll come off when it's ready but kettlebells are brilliant for an all round programme. I use them myself and gotten a hard body, so carry on using them.

    pilates, spin and plyometrics.

    all three really focus the core and together they strengthen, tone and elongate.

    good combo for soft middles!

    Thank you for the responses. I have noticed an improvement all over, and I am pleased with the kettle bell workouts being a total-body workout. My middle is smaller than it was - I'll just keep up what I'm doing.

    Fat usually comes off in reverse order of going on so it will probably be the last to go. I have much the same shape and that belly bulge is really a battle.
