As I'm getting smaller my tummy isnt' moving. I look like a skinny person with a kiddie float around my middle. I hate it! I have to wear shapers no matter where I go and a TT isn't looking like it's in the future anywhere. This tummy keeps me feeling fat. On a good note...I cannot believe I'm getting close to goal. I hope to be there by the new year. That would be amazing!

Hi There,
I know how frustrating this is, my problem areas, tummy and thighs were the lats to go, and when I gained a bit, that is the first place it came back on. In order to make those areas go down to the size I like, I have to go under 145 lbs!!! (I am almost 6 feet tall).
It can be really discouraging when my coller, chest, back and rib bones are stiking out, I have slim arms and legs from the knees down, but my damn thighs and belly are full and round.
Oh well, overall I look fantastic, and the only way to really get rid of mine would be lypo I think! Now I am too thin for that. So I must 'accept' what I have and learn to love it.
I have accepted it, but do I it.... not so much.
Good luck to you on the rest of your journey,
Cindy

Hi everyone,
I am back from my Disneyland trip and the scale was up to 105.8 yesterday morning. This morning, I am 105.4, so I am working my way back down. I want to see 104 or so in the next few days. I am hoping some of this weight is sodium. At Disneyland I didn'****ch what I ate and I am sure that I consumed a great deal more calories each day than I normally do, on the other hand, I walked from early in the morning to late at night every day. In the end, it worked out OK and I am sure I will be able to get back to my comfort zone soon.
