hola mami..i am no overweight, because most of my life i do the belly dance. (believe me, it was hard life) but you can loose! mi friend Esperanza loose 70 pound in 7 month, you can do too. belly dance is good work out for stomach area. also drink much water, eat less fat food, excersize, and no give up! remember you are no fat unless you think you are. When being overweight no matter to you anymore, it will not matter to anyone else. good luck and salude
