Eugh, how to get rid of the dreaded muffin top?

You do a lot of spinning. Could you ditch some of the spinning and do some abs work. Jillian Michaels 6 week 6 pack is supposed to be gREAT. I haven't got it by the way.

or buy bigger jeans? ;-)

This is what I was going to say.

The answer is that you can't spot reduce. The only way to lose the muffin top is through diet and exercise. Your body will lose fat wherever your body is genetically inclined to lose fat. It will eventually reach the spot you're concerned about, but you can't control when.

simple, MOVE!!!! burn calories, there is no secret! good luck

I lost 10 lbs and most of my muffin tops. still have away to go

This^^^ I see very young thin girls walking around with muffin top simply because their clothes are ill fitting.

Stop eating muffins. I hear it works pretty well, although I couldn't say from experience

Try lowering your carbs. Rice, white bread, potatos. Avoid em. Give yourself a couple months. Replace with veggies (which are a form of carbs, so don't worry).

this might sound weird, but some of my coworkers either wear maternity pants, with the panel made of knit material at the top, or wear those knit bands that you wear over regular pants to make the maternity pants, and they credit them for their svelte look, because the knit material kind of slims them and gives their little bit of flab some support. i've considered trying it myself.

usually i try to get pants that come up higher -- like, to my natural waist. but i'm always astounded at how hard these can be to find, in this world of low-cut and "hipster" pants. ("hysterectomy pants, i call them!", to throw a quote from the movie Crybaby in there!)

Bigger jeans was gonna be what i said, but thought everyone would think i was a b*tch! If you have the right size of pants and ones that fit you correctly you will never ever have a muffin top

agreed, buy pants that actually fit, and then when you get your bf% down thereby reducing your waist size wear the ones you have now. I had to learn along the way that just because you can lay down on the bed on your back, get them up, suck it in, and get the zipper up with pliers does not indicate that they are actually my size. If they honestly "fit everywhere else" then you're wearing the wrong cut of pants.

For those who have had a baby and have that muffin top regardless of tight jeans!?!?!?!?! NO....we have to buy granny jeans that go up to our belly buttons!

I've had a baby, and stick by my post, lower bf = less muffin top in properly fitting pants. that's the nice thing about jeans lines carrying all sorts of different cuts from the boyfriend, to the skinny, to the curvy, "mom jeans" are no longer a necessity.
