in Motivation and Support
Hello:bigsmile:

A few of us have been doing challenges together and have been discussing our common problem...the dreaded Belly!!! As we're now doing different workouts/exercises we've decided we'd still like to support and motivate each other in losing the Belly.

If you have the same problem come and join us!!!

The idea is we can do any workout we chose and to concentrate on burning calories to achieve a flatter belly.

There is no target of calories to burn so it will suit all levels from beginners to advanced, we'll post to discuss what we're doing and how much we're burning and at the end of each week post our total calories burnt for that week.

Knowing so many of us suffer from the Belly we thought it would be a great way to motivate, support and swap ideas etc etc.

Starting as from Tuesday, 6th September...come on, you know you want to have a flat belly :happy:

    I'd like to participate. But, maybe we should also track measurements of our bellies to see how we are doing with flattening?

    LOVE IT! The belly has been my trouble zone since I was a kid!!! I like the measuring idea as well!! I've been doing that as of August. I'd lvoe to get ideas from others for exercises to burn fat and tone the tummy! 12 years is a long time for "being pregnant" as the excuse for the loose skin!

    I'm here! Aiming for 3 or 4 workouts a week and sticking to my cal allowance for the next few weeks. Measurements and pics done anyway for end of RI30, so now my after pics become my before pics!

    In truth I don't think it is really possible to lose from one area in particular, so exercise will help with wherever there is a bit of excess. Having said that, I'm not sure I'm ever going to lose my bingo wings, as I doubt the saggy skin will ever tighten up given that I am an 'older woman'. Sorry, that's a horrible image I've just put out there!

    Quoted for truth! You're going to lose all over, so you just have to keep losing until the area you want to lose is gone! Hopefully, you don't lose too much lean muscle in the process :tongue: That's saying lose way too many times. lose lose lose lose lose. Kinda loses all meaning after a while, haha! I think my brain checked out early today :tongue:

    For consistency, I think we should track calories, measurements, and weight. It should serve as a reminder that the scale is not the ruler of all! If we don't lose pounds, by god, we will lose inches! (or kilograms and centimeters for you metric folks)
