I am doing all I can to get rid of my enormous belly. I know many of you probably think that my belly isn’t big but to me it is. When I was younger I never did any ab workouts because there was nothing to work on. Now I’ve been doing ab workouts with every arm and leg workout however I am not seeing that much of a change. I mean I’m doing a very extensive ab workout to get every part of my belly exercised. It’s lower and upper abs and more. I do an 17 minutes ab workout. I should have gotten further than I am.



I feel my jeans going on a little smoother though. I know my legs have gotten bigger because of my exercise and that has something to do with my jeans getting too small. Before I had to pull them hard to get them on. I was afraid they would fall a part with every pull because I had to use all my strength to get them on. Even now I pull hard to get my jeans on but it doesn’t take that long anymore. It’s not a big change but I could have lost belly fat even though I don’t see any change. I compare my jeans to sausage “skin”. They are filled to the absolute max. I’m waiting for the day they won’t fit anymore. I have written this before and the fear of my jeans breaking when I’m in public isn’t gone. I’m happy every time I get home without any “breaking” incident happening. I have more jeans but they’re small too. Time to buy bigger I think.

The biggest change I’ve done when it comes to eating to loose weight is that I’ve stopped eating candy. I told you about it in “Sugar ban” where I wrote what I’ve done to ban candy from my life. It’s hard to do and I wrote that to possible help someone to also stop. I thought I never could do it but I did. I often ate candy to have something to do. I haven’t even touched any candy for a long time! I had to stop eating candy because it affected me and my body more than I thought it ever could. I’m not saying I will never eat candy again however now I’m not craving candy in any way.

From me and my jeans, we stay together until they break!
Hey! I just wanted to say that you have done a great job by cutting out the candy. Processed foods especially sugary foods can create a lot of health and weight troubles. Keep working at it. And do look into weight training. It will work wonders for your body and overall health. Good luck on your fitness journey! 🙂

Thanks for your comment! I do weight training. It has made my body stronger except my belly. It is hard when you do all the work and at the same time not seeing the belly getting smaller.

Since you are already exercising, once your diet is on point you will definitely see results. As the candy is already out, you are on the right track. Just stay consistent and don’t give up. 😄

Running is a good exercise. Don’t get me wrong. I believe in exercise but you have to do a lot of it to lose weight. Remember the old saying “Abs are made in the kitchen”. Weight control is all numbers, and these are the numbers that you eat. Just 100 calories less per day will allow you to lose 12 pounds. You have to exercise for about 9 hours (400 calories burnt per hour) to lose just 1 pound!
