The pic on the left was taken 2 weeks ago so I know its not long enough to see a huge difference.Can you tell me if you can see a slight difference in stoamach area.I want a flat stomach but I still have belly fat. Aslo do you get a flat stomach by calorie deficient or exercise ? Here are the pics

    yes tummy getting flatter and calorie deficit is the correct answer.

    Yep. Definite improvement. And I think obtaining the body you want is 80% diet and 20% exercise. You can get a flat stomach purely from eating right with a calorie deficit, definitely; but exercise is a little boost and helps. :)

    Hard to say, because the bikini in the 1st pic is higher, so it makes your belly look bigger. Wear the same outfit if you want an true comparison.

    I think there are slight differences. Your stomach looks more firm in my opinion. It's a little hard when the positions and lighting are different. I'd get a measuring tape and just start measuring at some interval you pick, maybe once every 2 weeks? :) Good job though!!

    Check out this article. This guy took 6 progress pics and they are all about 10 minutes apart but he manipulated the lighting in the room and the positions he was standing http://www.huffingtonpost.com/andrew-dixon/weight-loss-secrets_b_3643898.html
