Lost Your Lower Belly Pooch? SHOW IT OFF!

My SW 198lb/89.9kg and during at 62kg/136lb (about 4kg/9lb ago):

And the side during at 136lb/62kg.... (I'm 128lb now and it's even better!):


I'm 5'4" and a mummy and I've been fat since I was 7 or 8 - so there's hope for everyone!!

OK, I said I would come back and post a better pic of my belly..

Before (Jan 1):


Today (Day 48):


I wish I had taken a better before photo cause the lower pudge there was so big and is covered up by boxer shorts.. the reduction I've seen in this area in less than two months is amazing

Great work and in such a short time. We look about the same. Thanks for sharing, I have been doing 6 week 6 pack from Jillian Michaels. Hope I get these results!

Wow, this is amazing! How did you do it and how long did it take? Im beginning to think that my belly will never go!

Wow!! You look amazing!! That's so what I'm hoping for! Right now I'm about 20lbs heavier than your start weight and want to get to 140lbs. Can I ask how long it took you to lose the weight?

I lost the first 35lbs without really trying very hard - but it took 2 years. I've lost the last 35lbs over the last 6mths (I even plateaued for almost 3 of those months!) so a fast loss is definitely possible. I do think that the longer time it takes the easier it often is to be discouraged, and the more patience plays a role in your loss.

I found after losing weight my pooch was actually more pronounced and definitely more saggy. But incorporating strength training made a HUGE difference. I did go to the gym, but I haven't been since Jan (membership expired) and I have always worked out mainly at home. YouTube Videos have been my favourite - I love Fitness Blender and Be Fit channels. I'm a HUGE fan of bodyweight training, yoga and HIIT.

In the end getting rid of it really required three things - strength training, cardio and a calorie deficit (that wasn't TOO big) - most people just seem to leave out the strength training because they don't realise you don't HAVE to do it in a gym and you don't HAVE to have any equipment (I only have dumbbells (1kg, 2kg, 3.5kg & 4kg), an aerobic step, pullup bar and a yoga mat, that's it, and there are many days were I use nothing but my body).

And a week ago somewhere between 129lb and 130lb or about 58.5kg/59kg:

Please share your secret I can't get rid of mine I think I've left it too late to get rid of the skin ????

I'm 5'5.5". I ate 1500+ a day, ran/did Zumba 3 days a week, and lifted heavy 3 days a week.

Before, ~130


After, 120

You're body is rockin'!! You look amazing!

For me - eating right, running, lifting, and PATIENCE! That's all it is. Work hard and you'll see the results. If you're not seeing results, change things up. Eat MORE than you think you probably should. I started at 1200 calories and did everything "right" for a month, and no change in either weight or measurements. I upped my calories to 1600+ and dropped the weight.

DITTO re the food - I was at 1200 and plateaued for 3 months, upped my cals to around 1500+ and lost immediately. And I do a lot of cardio too, but it was when I included strength that I got results.
