Daschnook,
Do the induction, stay with LC, and the tummy stuff will definitely tighten up and you'll be exceedingly pleased! Your body will slim up the most in the neck, legs, and arms initially, but you will lose in the thighs, buttocks, and abdomen, too. You will have a good clean cut before long. No high intensity exercise will be necessary to accomplish this. In low carb weight loss, your object is not to exercise to burn fat, but rather to exercise to release fat stores for use in the bloodstream. Stretches of all muscle groups you can find and very light short duration exercise will be just fine. There is alot of fat under as well as over the abdomenal muscles, as well as under the rib cage, and believe me it is going away, too. There are some posts that relate - fats that are streaming from other body areas take a pit stop in abdomenal region, so you may fluctuate from feeling trimmed up in the abdomen to feeling a bit puffy or flabby. You'll see it if you are paying attention, and it sounds like you'll be staring at the tummy region each and every day, and whenever you can.
