it just doesnt happen. Options

[marielamuneka]

I take kick boxing.. and i exersize regularly and i eat sorta healthy i mean im not a vegetarian but i dont eat like a pig.
I dont drink soda, maybe just once a month? so rarely. I drink Aloe Vera Drink it comes in some green long ass bottle(to give me energy, healthy-on-the-inside) And i cant seem to take off my belly fat. I have i dont know 5 pounds maybe? may not seem like alot but it irritates me i wanna make it flatter.. what can i do? i dont seem to sweat..either. [the only time i really ever recall sweating was when i made love with my boyfriend..and that lasted less time than my daily exersize routine!]

my exersizes daily include:

Running on the tredmill(30 minutes)
Walking on the tredmill (15 minutes)

do situps(at least 150)
crunches(30-50)
stretches(10 minutes-25minutes)

and of course kick boxing.(2-3 times a week).

I mean i've lost weight in my face, thighs, but not my stomach!!

[Melie]

are you drinking enough water? required about is 6-8 glasses a day and it will help with weight loss.

also, crunchies doesn't really help with flattening your stomach but it does cause serious strain to your neck and back.

might i suggest an exercise that might help.
LEG LIFTS!!
1) you lay on your back with your hands underneath your buttocks.
2) elevate your legs 6 inches off the ground.
3) you hold that position for 10 seconds. (trust me, 10 seconds don't seem much but it is when you're doing this)
4) do like 5 sets of these and then of course, increase time and/or duration according to your level of expertise.

this exercise will help with the abdominals and with the lower abdominals. plus strengthen your back.

Leg lifts, i tried that shit right now and i really felt it!
Ima add that in.. thanks! and yeah i drink propel, or gatorade..

Kick Boxin??!

Try drinkin more H20.

Or dedicate 2 weeks of a cardio regime:

Monday: 30 min cardio

Tuesday: Rest (or ab work outs)

Wednesday: 30 minute cardio

Thursday: Rest

Friday: 30 minute cardio

Saturday: Ab outs

Sunday: Rest


Keep in mind when you do cardio, the whole point of cardio and losing weight is to push your heart to the limit... sweating as much as you possibly can, no matter how nasty, sticky, slimy, it may feel... at the end of the road, you'll just be that much more sexier :P

That's the problem with a lot of people, they want to do cardio and lose weight, but part of the chemistry in losing weight is to burn fat, which is easily done by sweating it out.

[synatribe]

or if your trying to loose it through food I recommend mixing up a good serving of green juice in the morning, I know it taste really nasty in the beginning but I got rid of a lot of pimples and lost 7 pounds off that thing:]

Green Juice ingredients

anything green from the market :]

[marielamuneka]

green juice in the morning

like those preppy girls who weigh like 50 pounds drinking those cups of shit that looks like grass?

no thanks... mixing anything green from the store..i dont know if i can do that. but i like making fruit blends in the magic bullet.
