The dreaded muffin top

[JustAGirl1980]

Currently i weigh about 220lb but I swear that about 56lbs of that is on my bloody muffin top grrrrrrr!!!!!

I've lost about 40 odd lbs so far but this muffin top just doesn't appear to be shrinking and it looks bigger and bigger as i'm losing the weight.

Does anyone have any tips to get rid of this like what excercise should I do to tackle it?

Oh and also as i'm losing weight it looks like my cellulite is getting a million times worse. Is this all in my imagination or does anyone else think this?

Hmmmm, maybe the trousers you are wearing are a little too tight? I get the muffin top when my bottoms are too small.

hey justagirl... that's just how our boddies roll (no pun intended) when we are losing weight. I am a male, and when I lost my first 20 pounds, I swear I looked the worst I ever was. I had HUGE love handles, they were more pronounced then when I was fat. After about 6 months, my skin has tightened up. You need to give your skin and other elastic fibers some time to catch up with the weight loss... it will take a while
