We all have a problem area... WHAT'S YOURS????

I have giant upper arms. Even at my lowest weight they didn't really go away, but, when I weight trained they at least looked alright.

I also have the saggy/stretchmarked lower belly from prior weight loss and the kid. lol

Otherwise I got pretty lucky, never ended up with cellulite, my legs are fairly trim except my upper thighs, for some reason I never ended up with rolls other than that tummy flap at the bottom. Even my back doesn't have rolls, though it will get a groove in it if I wear a bra that's too tight all day, but goes away quickly.

I feel that I can make my arms look better with weight training, I've been doing pushups regularly and they already look a lot better, but I will just have to make peace with that lower tummy flap.. lol

Love handles, had them even as a slim teen. I remember looking at friends with none at all and then looking ay myself like wtf is this?!
Oh and CELLULITE! What is the actual point?! If I was millionaire I would get the treatment the celebrities have to remove it!
And one last thing, I've always carried fat around my knees, even as a child, so that looks really weird.

EVERYWHERE! I've lost over 30 lbs, but I need to gain muscle. Since I'm "almost-skinny fat" right now, I look fine in clothes but without... yeesh. Once I'm down to a reasonable body fat level, I'll start on heavy lifting to build up some definition, but until then... *rocks in the corner* just focus on the positive... focus on the positive...

@Ohwhynot my advice to you is start heavy lifting now! Don't wait!!

@sardelsa - I still have fat to lose, so I was afraid I would be wasting the effort if I was still cutting calories. I'm still iffy on the science of fat loss while muscle gain.

once upon a time i would have said my hips and thighs, but now, i'm not really curvy anymore. what is really bothering me is my CALVES, which i can do nothing about. it is crazy that if i buy a slim, my pants are now too big in the waist, hips and bum and too tight in the calves. ehh...as problems go, its not really a bad one...

... and I have had 3 abdominal surgeries and I know what you mean, it changes your belly forever. Those scars are there where they cut through your muscles, and they wonkify the shape of your belly!!! Not that I regret the hysterectomy, but dang, you know?
