How to get rid of tummy?!?

[Jellymelly819]

I'm 5'4 and 120 pounds. I have a small frame with small boobs and thin arms and legs. For some reason though I have always had a stomach that I can't get rid of. My boyfriend once poked fun of it and said it was "disproportionate". I'm starting yoga and pilates this week because I heard it was good for the core. Has anyone else had success with getting rid of a belly like this though? What did you do?

if you already eat healthy as you say you do, that's the biggest hurdle...any type of exercise that works your core will help, but for sure P90X works, as you want to focus on the entire body to burn "fat". sorry, have to say it like that. But, 120 LBS. is an average weight for a woman. also, I believe in elipticals myself, or running, not treadmills, either.

exercises with an exercise ball are great for your core. also planks, side planks, crunches, knee ups and leg ups work your abs, also the ab wheel roller. working your abs is almost an everyday job, good luck.

No worries, not offended by the term "fat". I mean that is what it is. Thanks for the advice =)

If you're bothered about you're belly try running its a great way to stay fit and increase the amount of calories burnt (I know its boring etc but I know from experience (I used to do competition in running) that once youve had the runners high a couple of times (by pushing youreself ) you'll get hooked

and then you can still work on you're abs to get some tone and with the runnning burning of any fat you might have it should come in nice

That's mean of your boyfriend for one. And for two, my roommate is 5'4 120 lbs and we're always saying how skinny she is and how she's going to blow away. If you want to become a little more toned in your tummy for YOU, then I suggest P90X or hip hop abs. Even doing crunches before bed every night will help. But if you never had a problem with your body until your boyfriend said something, he can go to hell. No woman is perfect and I'm sure many girls are envious of your otherwise small frame.

Sounds fine. Your boyfriend is probably your age and doesn't know sh*t. I doubt you're disproportionate or that anything is wrong. In fact, you'll probably look worse without it. Hungry... like a zombie or something. Be happy with your body. You won't lose the tummy fat when you realize what it'll take.

Core exercises like yoga and such will not lose the belly fat, just strengthen your abdominal muscle. You need to exercise, do cardio, eat healthy, etc.

Yeah I should have clarified that. I really am a healthy person, I follow a low carb vegetarian diet and go running every morning. It just seems I have this one zone that is completely different from the rest of my body.

Do P90X...seriously it works.

I was just looking at that, the girls look so amazing.
