Specific weight gain/loss question.

[Anonymous]

Alright, I hope this doesn't come off as a really terrible question...

Let's say a fairly thin girl puts on a little weight, evenly distributed, all over a period of a few years. Is it then possible to lose fat in certain areas (arms, stomach, sides), but keep it in others (chest, bootay, thighs)?

I know I know I'm a horrible person for asking but I'm curious.

You can't spot reduce, so if she lost weight she would lose it all over. I mean, that's not to say, that she wouldn't lose less in her breasts than compared to her stomach. It's all up to her body. And, of course, she can also tone up a certain part of her body (say, doing squats to make her butt bigger than just losing). So, no, she won't lose weight in only certain areas, but yes, she can tone certain areas up to make them bigger (even, though, to an extent certain exercises contribute to basically every part of your body. Like, squats help mainly the butt, but also will tone up her thighs). Heh, I hope this rambling mess helps answer your question. :/

And, why do you think you're a terrible person for asking? A lot of people are curious about this.

That rambling mess did make a ton of sense, yes, thank you!

I dunno, I just think it seems wrong to ask about ways to slim one down but keep the desirably bigger areas the way they had become... God it's awkward explaining it. I feel a bit selfish as well...

Oh, OK, good. :) Just get a bit worried, 'ya know? lol

Nah, you should never feel bad for asking about something that's curious. I think it's awesome that you're asking, so you can become aware. It might sound bad to you, but trust me, it doesn't. :)

No it comes off evenly.

You could tone particular places but not lose fat there.

No, it's not ahorribel question, but the answer is flat NO, you can't reduce just from some spots!

You can firm up spots with exercise, but the weight will have to come from wherever you have extra fat now..mostly the stomach and thighs. for most people, but also some from the arms..

The simple answer is "No".

Hah. Gotcha. What's the complicated answer?
