I think you just have to be patient. my belly is the first place I gain, and the last place that I lose. I have to be very very patient.0

I hate to be the bearer of bad news but there really isn't a way to speed up the process. Eat healthy, limit processed foods, drink plenty of water and work out.
In my experience the tummy was the last to go. Just have to be patient.0 -

It has to do with fat receptor distribution. Its kind of complicated, but in a nutshell fat cells have 2 types of receptors. One for inhibiting use for energy and one that encourages it. In your stubborn areas you have a higher ratio of inhibiting receptors. Normal distribution is males have a lot in abdomen while women have a lot in hips/legs. I don't think there is much to do about it.0
