Welcome to the forum.
We cannot choose where we lose the weight from - but if we lose weight it will come off somewhere... All we can do is lose weight and hope for the best...
We can do exercises that improve our tummy muscles though which can make our tummies look better...
The weight just comes off where it wants to come off though... I would dearly like my tummy to be smaller too...
When I was a very big lady - I swear that the first 30 pounds came off my left leg... My tummy didnt look much different but my left leg looked thin and my right leg still looked fat...
It looked really silly. I suddenly saw it - looking at my bare legs... When my husband saw my bare legs he could see it too. It sounded insane... Even my parents and doctor could all see it...
It evened up in time though...
I was doing a lot of walking and my doctor told me that it must be because I walk a bit unevenly and I had been exercising one leg more...
It does sound mad - but it really confirms how you cannot choose - it just happens...
