Okay so here's the thing. I'm not fat or overweight at all, and I know that. I am 5'0'' and I weigh 107 lbs. I am happy with my body except for my stomach. My legs are toned, my arms are fine, by back has a little flab but I don't mind, but my stomach hangs over my pants when I sit down. I just want to be comfortable in my body but my gut is stopping that. I am athletic, I dance, run, swim, and play softball and I am trying to improve my eating to be more healthy.
This may seem inconsiderate, being that I am at a good weight but I am really just seeking some help.
Is there any way I can improve my stomach and tighten/tone my belly? I know that ab workouts won't do the trick because the fat over the abs will just hide the muscles, but I've had this problem for a while and I don't know what to do anymore.
Any helpful tips?? Thank you so much :)

    Have you tried pilates? I've been seeing improvements in my belly since I added pilates to my workouts.

    For myself and a lot of people I know that have cut down on belly fat found that it's sugar.

    So many things these days a packed with it and for myself the sugar goes straight to my belly and sits there. I'd just recommend watching what you eat cutting back on sugary foods and keeping up regular exercising with ab work outs.

    It's like they say abs are made in the kitchen.

    Operate at a small deficit. Belly fat is the most stubborn so it will just take time and be slow.

    Doing ab workouts will make it show sooner with less fat lost.

    Thats about all you can really do.
