    Sometimes it's first on, last off. Belly fat is one of those areas that can take a while.

    Keep up the good work. It will come off.

    I you find out let me know lol. Ive lost 14 lbs from my heaviest and I see it in my face and calves but not my stomach and upper legs. I jog and walk a lot along with cruches,situps and ab isolations and the fat just seems to stay put in my midsection.

    Healthy foods, cardio, and weight lifting. That's it. There is no way to specifically target fat, ie/ situps, crunches, etc.... those will strengthen your abdominal wall, but not burn the fat/ expose a six-pack.

    Good luck! Just take it one day at a time and stay patient. It will eventually happen for you!
  • Keep up the GREAT work! You will get there, stick with it. :wink:
