Question Tummy be gone!!!

I all! I am a lurking lcber. I must first start off by saying how great you all are. Your stories are inspirational and heart felt. The advice given is extremly helpful. Thank you! Okay hear are my questions??? How do I change my stats and I am almost at the end of induction, I have lost 10 lbs. I am very happy. I feel great! I have more energy, no cravings. However I can feel and see my weight loss pretty much all over my body except the place I most need it to be gone from. It has left my face, boobies, legs, bottom, everywhere except my tummy!!!!! When will it leave my tummy???????? Have a great day!

Hi Gretchen, and congrats on the 10 pounds!!!!! That is a super start, you must be sooooo psyched!

Other people may have an easier way for you to update your stats, but click on the word profile at the top of the page, and then click on profile again when the next screen comes up and you will be able to enter your new lower numbers!

By the way, I am also very heavy, disproportionately in the middle, it is slowly getting smaller, and for that I am grateful, but it seems to be slower than the rest. Keep up the good work, maybe get some more exercise and as the weight comes off those more toned muscles will be able to shine through!

Exercise those trouble spots--everyone has a place that just won't dissappear and more attention is needed in those areas.

My tummy is going down slower that the rest of me too. My upper arms don't seem to have moved much either-but somehow clothes are looser and my pants feel better. I think loose skin sinking from above makes the tummy look the same size-even if it has lost fat. It sure is more compressible in jeans!

Hey Gretchen.
Congrats on the 10 lbs!!!
My lower abs were the first place I gained and the last place I lost. I upped my exercise and it helped emmensely.
