beer belly fat

Beer Belly?

Okay, so I have been dieting and have lost about 15 pounds so far. I’m 5 foot 6 and weight 200lbs. All of my weight is concentrated in my gut. I have seen a differnce in my face as I lost the weight, but what is the best way to lose my beer belly? I have been doing sit-ups but as i have read, they won’t shrink your gut until you lose the fat around it. So is there a way to target beer belly fat?

I know what you are talking about. I gained about 35-40 lbs when my wife was pregnant and then stopped excersizing for the first year of my childs life due to fatigue and the fact i wanted to hang out with my son all the time. This past year it was my goal to run a marathon and lose weight and I will achieve that goal this December and have already lost 30 lbs while training for it. But I still have a little gut left .

Its the last area that goes away, I lost the extra chin fat, arm fat and dropped a few pant sizes in the process but I still have the little extra down there. You just have to stick to eating healthy and excersize. Dont listen to people that say “Dont Drink beer” or “Dont eat ice cream” i think its better if you do reward yourself everyonce in a while so that you dont drive yourself crazy.

I went to St. louis for a “guys trip” and saw a cards/Cubs game, 49ers/Rams game, Budweiser tour, bar and strip club tour and came back only gaining 3 lbs, but I had a great time and was ready to get back to eating healthy and working out. It was a vacation.

Good Luck
