I'm 5'4 and currently fluctuate between 195 and 200 pounds. I started my weight loss journey 270 a little over a year ago so I've lost A LOT in a short time but I still have belly fat that I want to shed. Any tips help!

    caloric deficit, HIIT's, stomach vacuums (do these 3 consistently and that stubborn fat will burn)

    Just keep doing what you've been doing. I'm a size 8 and have belly fat. It's normal.

    Lower carbs / sugar by a lot. Add healthy fats (organic animal fat, coconut oil, etc.) to burn fat. If your body has no sugar and carbs it will begin to burn body fat. Macros would be 45% protein; 40% fat; 15% carbs/sugar with your calories staying in the range you established. Go slowly to minimize sagging skin.

    Ref: https://www.westonaprice.org/health-topics/know-your-fats/the-skinny-on-fats/

    Note: This is not a "forever" diet - you should look to raise your healthy carbs to around 100 gs once you reach your fat loss goal. (Low carb can wreck your thyroid). These healthy carbs would be things like beans, sweet potatoes, squashes, and once in a while white potatoes and rice.

    What I do is cut the starch (like pasta) by half in family recipes, add less of them (potatoes to soups) and add more other veggies (like celery or green beans) and meat.

    You can't choose where you lose weight from.....this is why people pay for liposuction. Where your fat deposits are is genetic. Just do the best you can.

    Sad, isn't it? If I could, I would be at least one size smaller than I am because I would gave lost more from the "girls". First place, after the fingers, I notice water weight gains or losses and the last place I notice fat losses :(

    Bloody sick of buying new bras.

    At least your size has a nice variety. I have about 3 or 4 I can choose from and that is it. None are decorative.

    Cut calories and combine cardio with weights. Cardio & weights is more effective for burning belly fat.
