    For what it's worth- if you have any food intolerances at all, you may want to be checked for IBS/ fructose malabsorption by your Dr. I had the same problem, and once I went on the FODMAP protocol to eliminate foods that were causing me issues, I lost 6 inches off my belly in 3 days. It was all water and gas. I wasn't necessarily painful all the time. IBS isn't always as painful when you're younger; it certainly has me much more symptomatic now.

    I'm not saying that you have or don't have this or any other issue; just eliminate metabolic problems as something that may be occurring if you're having so much trouble.

    And there's no way to spot-reduce certain fat areas. IT just takes time, heavy lifting to reduce your overall fat %, good clean food and patience. Women are predisposed to carrying fat here and it's the last place to leave.

    My stomach fat will not budge, i know they say it's patience and usually the last to go but i'm getting really fed up and worried that i'm going to have it forever (my dad has a large belly too)

    my top half from my boobs upwards is great, i have the nice new lovely slim and toned arms, i can see my colar bone and shoulders and i like what i see there, my face is nice and slim, the bottom part of my legs are nice but my inner thigh is still quite flabby and my behind needs a little bit more work but my belly!!

    I've never had a flat tummy, since i can remember when i was young i have always hidden it away because of the rolls of fat and the size of it and the podge is still there.

    From the back i look slim and in good shape, from the front, i look pregnant.

    Did i just need to carry on doing what i am doing and it will eventually come off or will i always be stuck with this? it's because i've never known for it be flat i'm scared it never will be and quite frankly, i do not have the money for surgery!

    Hi I have the same problem and have tried anything possible and impossible over years. Nothing really worked.
    But I started Insanity Workout 6 days ago and am already now seeing first results! It's mind blowing, I never lost belly fat at such a speed.

    I'm on a mobile device now so not able to upload my before and after photos here, but check my first post in the forum I posted the results of only 5 days of training there.

    The program is extremely tough - it deserves the name insane. But it is the first thing that really works to lose that stubborn belly fat I had all my life.
