    My biggest problem areas are my tummy, upper thigs, and upper arm fat. :(

    I noticed a slight difference in upper arms from doing chair dips and push ups. :)

    Hope this helps!

    TUMMY definitely.

    I wish I was overall more thin (of course), but I have a typical "gymnastics" body. So I am kind of stocky all over. I have short, thick legs. Thankfully, no cellulite! And very firm but I think I look like a T-Rex, hahaha. My arms are bulky, too....wish they could slim down.

    I am 4'9"! So short!


    haha mine too

    I'm almost 5'1" & the worst has been my thighs. After having a baby, now add my lower stomach & upper arms. I'm kind of proportionally big everywhere at least now lol

    Definitely my stomach and my thighs... well, actually it feels like all over (arms :P), but yeah, my tummy is my biggest area.

    Apple shaped here. I've got a belly and a flat butt. Sigh. When I gain weight, it's goes to my tummy. When I lose weight, I lose from my butt. So lopsided! I do like my legs though...

    I'm a little taller (5'3"- but that's on a good day) but I too have the thighs and butt issue. I was much smaller in high school, but even at 100-110 pounds I STILL had the butt, hips, and thighs. I'm pretty sure it's all about the genetics. My thighs, my hips, the cellulite, as much as I would like to think that I can get it all toned, I doubt it will ever happen. So while I have no good advice, I can certainly empathize, and I would love to hear any tips from girls with similar builds who were able to successfully tackle that area!

    I'm 5'3", too and I'm about 105 now (my HW was 135 in high school) and I've managed to "tackle" my stomach and thighs (my "problem" areas) by eating 90% "clean" and doing 50% yoga, 25% cardio, 25% body weight workouts (jumping jacks, push ups, sit ups, burpees, etc). I started with 100% cardio- running 3 miles every day- and then gradually started adding yoga and body weight workouts into my regime. Now, I do 30 minutes of yoga every day, and I run 3-4 miles every other day in about 30 minutes and do HIIT (body weight) workouts for 30-45 minutes on the days in between.

    PS I love using quotation marks sometimes.

    I gain weight very porportionaly but no matter how much weight I lose I always have TONS AND TONS of cellulite covering every inch of my legs. Like you wouldn't even believe how much. I have given up every having a flat lower abdomen because I am older(47) , have stretch marks there from my kids and the skin sags badly.

    When I gain weight, it goes first to my waist (a 4" band right across my abdomen), then to my chest (the dreaded bra bulge), then to my thighs and upper arms. It comes off in the exact reverse order, go figure.


    we could be twins.....same thing here with the pattern of weight gain and weight loss....i would only add i also gain weight in my back....

    definitely my stomach, thighs, and underarms? (don't know technical term) but stomach and underarms might be due to me losing 50 pounds over the course of 6 years and not toning once I lost...because I've seen bigger people with no underarm flab and average people with no underarm flab and the only people i see with it are seriously obese people and people who have lost weight, so i'm just making an assumption, all i know is it ticks me off >:(

    I'm 5'2. I have a small waist and big butt, hips and thighs. I love my figure but wish it was much small. I hate my thighs they are huge and jiggly also. Years ago I went down from 190 to 140 the smallest I've ever been. I wore size ten jeans. I was in a friends wedding and was so excited about my weightloss. The dress lady told me should would have to order me a size 14 dress and alter it because I was a size 6 on top and 14 on bottom. :-/ so disappointing.
