I have these awful love handles that won't go away, and they are annoying as crap. I run 5 days a week, abs at least 4 days a week, and i do resistance training also which works my core (so i'm told). I was wondering if anyone could shed some light on some exercises/techniques to get rid of this problem area. My diet is of no issue as i stick to low carb, low fat, 2000-2500 calories a day burning about 3000-3500 a day, getting at least 1g of protein for every pound of body weight. So mainly my question is are these things just gonna take time for them to disappear or can i speed up this process?

How do you know you're burning 3000-3500 calories a day? If you're burning that much and only consuming 2000-2500 calories a day, you are losing ~2 pounds a week, correct? If that's the case, that's a pretty severe caloric restriction on your diet and you may be slowing your metabolism down. How long have you been eating and working out like this?
What's it like over there, anyway?

to the love handles! I thought I was counting my calories pretty good until I was challenged to stop eating sugar all together. My handles have dropped off, and they did so pretty fast.
See my journal, a few pages back in time and there are before and after shots.
Your deal may not be sugar, but that is the experience I have to share with you.
thank you for serving it that is what you are doing. grateful!
