I used to come here everyday, but I wasn't getting much help, so I stop for a while. But now I'm back. Anyway, does anyone have any really good tips on flattening your belly and getting rid of love-handles...I need tips that have actually proven to work. Someone once told me that not eating stuff with potatoes such as potatoe chips, french fries, etc. helps get rid of the belly because that fat goes straight to the stomach. Does anyone know if its true?

Reply from marie, Age 16 - 06/16/03 - IP#: 66.41.89.xxx That's not true at all. Where fat collects on people has nothing to do with what food it is but each indivdual. some people get big butts some large bellies and other wide thighs (and so on). All that matters is your overall body fat. To get rid of stomach fat you need to do cardio (which helps everywhere) or if you have a small stomach but want to tone up then you can do ab muscle building moves which will only help once you lose weight (otherwise it could actually make your stomach appear larger).
