    I feel your pain. I have gone from 253 to 214 and now the man boobs and the gut are gone, but the love handles are there and they seem so much more noticeable. I hate it and I'm looking to figure out how to get rid of them as well. I'm hoping that as I lose the weight they will go. I know we can't target fat, but i sure as hell wish i could. I really don't want that to be the last place that the fat comes away from.

    Hello. I started working out on May 16th. Haven't lost too much weight, but noticed that my love handles got smaller. What I did was walking on a treadmill with free weights (3-5 lbs) and while walking I would move my hands not straight up but closer to the center kind of trying to make a circular motion around my core. I would walk at an incline and not slower than 3.7 mph. I noticed difference within 3 weeks. Also, I have started Slim in 6 and it looks like this workout also helps that area. Good luck =)

    Try some core workouts. Pilates and yoga are great for that.
