Hola!

I know I need to lose more weight, and I am trying so hard but I'm finding it so hard at the moment :(

What I am looking for is general advice about whats the best way to lose my belly. I can disguise other areas that need looking after but I am starting to feel down about my belly and just looking for some guidance to help me in my goal to get rid of it.

All advice welcome :smile:

    Keep losing weight. Your belly will become slimmer when you get closer to your goal. You cannot "spot reduce" in a preferred location on your body.

    You can't spot reduce or target specific areas.

    This is the correct answer. Reducing overall body fat is the only way.

    I have a few pairs of thoses, but when you contemplate wearing two pairs just to suck you in you know that you need to do something more :indifferent:

    Just keep at it. Focus on your health and the weight loss will follow.
