2. I read somewhere that stress prevents belly fat from burning |
|
and encourages it to deposit there if you eat more calories than you burn. When I was sick with anorexia, I kept getting a worse hip to waist ratio as I lost weight because it seemed to come off every area except my waist. It was not until I was dangerously underweight that my belly fat disappeared. There was a point that I looked at myself in a bikini and cried because I was too fat to wear it, evidenced by my fat stomach. For a moment though, I wondered whether my highly visible rib and collar bones were attractive either.

3. You gotta keep lowering your body fat |
|
On men, the fat first appears in the belly. First on, last off. Just keep at it,it will come off eventually.

Is belly fat stubborn or is it STEADFAST and RESOLUTE even in the face of criticism and widespread unpopularity.
So belly fat isn't really something to lament you should actually admire and respect your belly fat and support it's SURGE even if it sounds like the war is lost anyway...
I heard this on a Fox news story about health care. :)

will never cut and run. It's not about the polls! History will show that belly fat was a good thing.

We shall fight belly fat on the beaches, we shall fight it in the fields and on the streets. We shall never surrender...
