The day I realized my butt disappeared :-/

So I just finished washing my hands in the bathroom & as most women do, I adjusted my clothes in the mirror. After doing this I turned and looked back over my shoulder, and to my suprise I realized that I no longer have a butt :sad: . What happened? I lose a little weight and this is what I get!

    Start lifting heavy and do lots of squats and lunges - my jaw dropped just this morning when I saw my round, seriously pert butt in the mirror this morning.....Now if I can only get rid of the perimenopausal tummy pouch like that!

    It happens. You don't get to choose where you lose fat. As you continue to lose things should even themselves out. :) additionally you can do squats, lunges, etc. to tighten your booty. ;)

    Yes, I do exercise. I guess I need to add the lunges & squats. I have a bad knee so I'm terrified that doing too much will make it worse.

    I have two bad knees and once you learn the correct form for squats and lunges, it actually strenghens the knees.....

    Does it? I also have bad knees (it's bad enough to prevent me from running). Maybe I'll have to work on this then. :)

    I also have bad knees. I went to a physical therapist and was informed that it's because the muscles in my upper legs have one stronger then the other. Lunges and squats help to strengthen them both. It gets easier the more you do and you will love the results when your done.

    Yep - agree that the squats and lunges are great for strengening the muscles supporting the knees - I used to have to hold on to the stair railings for support after running 5kms....Now I run ten plus, and my knees only hurt when its really cold.......

    maybe your not used to seeing it so small? when you get your healthiest , i bet you will have more form and curves all over, make sure your adding weight training for all over body 3-4 times a week . low/ med weight, high reps to tone , heavy weight, low reps to bulk

    It's amazing how we are all different isn't it? You are were "bummed" out to see you butt had disappeared and I will be overjoyed when mine disappears lol!

    Seriously, add squats and lunges to your exercise plan and you will see a firmer butt reappear! If that doesn't work I could always donate some of mine to you! ;))

    never in my life have i really had a butt until now, lunges and squats etc, they really work! I actually for the first time in my life have definition between *kitten* and thigh. it used to kinda just merge into one. Even as a young teen! I thought with puberty I would finally get an *kitten* but no hahaha. But yep, lunge and squat and it helps! I will never have a j-lo booty as that's not my body shape, but I can have a pert *kitten* for MY body shape
  • I would say ludges and squats like alot of people have already said, hold weights in your hands while you do them. Be sure to get your daily protein!

    I'm half way through Killer Buns & Thighs and the only sign of a butt I see is when I wear my Levi Curve ID jeans which are supposed to flatter your figure, so mine make me look just a bit like I actually have a butt.

    I work out in the pool because my joints can't handle full impact. Perhaps that will work for you as well.

    My incredibly small waist is starting to become noticeable. I'm not going to quit working out, I'm going to combine the squats, lunges, and weights. Thanks for the advice hun!

    It is very amazing, we all have different views of ourselves. However, I'm sure we can all agree that being fit & healthy is a common goal!
