Blitzing the belly fat-success stories please?
Hey all. So I'm pretty much down to my target weight-2/3lbs to go which is nothing really right? Anyway my biggest issue is my 'spare tyre'. I'm 5'1 and currently 119lbs.

Loosing inches but not weight
Hi all, Just wanted to ask if this was a myth or true- if you are working out and building muscle will you not really lose weight but just tone up? I'm on a 1200 calorie diet but on the days I go to the gym I up calories by how much I burnt iykwim. I don't do much weight training, it's mostly cardio so this theory of…
