Getting rid of belly fat (post partum) - is it possible?

daniella2727

I am petite, average build. I have two children (1.5 & 3.5).

I am working my ass off (starting 1 Jan) to lose the baby weight.  It is 100% obvious in my face, it has slimmed down so much!  And it is obvious in my arms, chest area as for the first time in 3 years I could buy a medium in shirts (regardless of brand).  However, my waist size has not changed at all!  And my belly is still like jelly.  I don't expect my belly to "tone up" without a lot of hard work but the shape and size hasn't changed.

Anyonw have a similar experience and/or advise?

Hey there!  I actually had a baby in January 2013.. had about 20-30lbs I wanted to lose.  A couple months ago I tried an Advocare 24 Day Challenge, & I lost 14 inches total, & 5lbs.  Since then I have stayed on a couple products & am now down 22lbs & 19 inches.  Once you do this, your body is cleansed & can properly absorb nutrients, & this challenge also resets your metabolism & energy levels.  I was a napper everyday for like 2 hours until I did this, & now I rarely take one.  I loved the products so much that I recently became a distributor because I want to help others get back on track I am offering 40% off until Tuesday if you're interested in learning more!

Abs are made in the kitchen! Reduce your sodium, alcohol, sweets, etc. Track your food and work on your core exercises, you should see results.

Prior to pregnancy, I trimmed my waist by cutting out processed food (bread, pasta, sweets) and by running. Now that I'm two months post partum, I am ready to do the same process again.

You can't target belly fat specifically no matter how many core exercises you do. Eating balanced meals and weight lifting and some cardio at least 4 times a week has worked for me. Cut out processed white flour and sugar like the person above me said.

2 yrs pp with my 1st I had visible abs which I never had before! (: but I also am engaged to a bodybuilder and I'm a nutritionist so that helps as well.
