I offically HATE my belly

i hate mine too, its like a huge fat donut... Plus I have stretch marks all around my hips and front.
Its slowly going though.. I do some sit ups a few times a week.

I belly is the worst!!! It is sooo flabby and disgusting!! No matter how much I lose, it seems to just hang there and I'm very self conscious about it. I've always worn long shirts, but have you ever noticed that the plus size shirts are almost always short and the "skinny" shirts are usually long, what's with that? My husband is always getting on me because I opt to wear bigger and baggier shirts that make me look hugh!! I'm just not comfortable in a form-fitting shirt because they show that agonizing roll of flab I just can't seem to get rid of. I've lost some of my belly fat, but that roll haunts me. I struggle to do belly excersizes because of two hernias, but I am determined to continue to try. Good luck with yours, but know you are not alone!!

I feel your pain, mine is vile too. It's so massive I doubt there would be any muscle under there even if I did a million sit ups a day. Urgh.

I hate my tummy too, eurgh

Invest in a compression tank. They even sell them at Walmart now. You can we're them under almost everything. Try on different sizes to see what size is the most comfortable. I usually get one at least two sizes smaller than I'd get for a regular fitted shirt. It may not help you in a bikini but it makes all the difference under those form fitting workout shirts, dresses, and shirts.

I've never had a flat stomach. Even when I was at my goal weight before my kids were born that's the one place I held on to the few lbs of fat I did have. Now, after 2 c-sections, I fear there is no hope for mine. I'm going to try and get rid of all the fat and then see what damage remains... I may still get a tummy tuck, which I've been considering for 2 years now Recovery is tough though...

My stomach is flat ish but it still jiggles when I put my jeans on and it drives me crazy.

I hate it with a passion, I really do.

Every top I try on to go to work, I take off as I'm so self concious of it. I'm sick of it at this stage. Did this this morning; had a lovely new top picked out, tried it on and had to take it off again. I could get away with it but I'm too self-critical to wear it.

My legs are skinny, boobs and above are fine but after having my 2 kids back to back (youngest is nearly 3), I cannot lose the belly. It's like this round pot-belly stickey-outey bit that will just not go away.

I exercise 3-5 times a week, mix of weights, cardio and spin.

I must take a proper look at the belly thread and adopt some of the other ladies techniques for losing it. I want my toned belly back.

I feel your pain! I HATE my belly! wish I could just cut it off and throw it in the trash.....

crunches

i hate my belly also did the crunches 200 a day and still have a belly any advice on how many or how often and how long it takes for them crunches to start working i look knocked up half the time help!

They don't work at spot reducing fat. Crunches simply exercise your ab muscles. You may be making your muscles stronger, but you are not burning fat from your midsection by doing them.

Maintain a calorie deficit and lose weight. You will lose fat from your stomach (it may be the last area to go, but it will go eventually).

You know what works well for getting rid of a large belly?

Losing weight.

Seriously, that's all it takes. So, all you need to do is keep losing weight and/or reducing your body fat percentage and you can go from floppy belly to flat stomach.

Lose weight, lose your stomach.

True story - take a look at the success pictures... there are LOTS of ladies that had a lot of tummy flab that have washboard abs now. Can't wait to be one of them

According to JM 30DS the "reverse crunch" helps with the lower tummy pooch but she states very clearly... "its not going to go away with JUST the crunch... that's why you do cardio"
