My concerns are mostly fitness related. I seem to be rather fit in most areas of my body except my lower stomach. I can't seem to lose weight it the abdomen area. Would there be a reason why? I have a bloated look, but I am not heavy in areas such as my arms, butt, and legs. I work out and eat in moderations, and have also found that if I do sit ups/scrunchs I still can't seem to see any results. I like to call it a "stomach pouch", because it has that appearance. Having this problem causes me to fill rather uncomfortable and embarrassed to wear certain clothing or a swimming suit. I wish I could say it was just a small burden or even just a small "pouch", but I feel it is large enough it gives me the appearance of being overweight and unhealthy. Some people have even made the comment that they thought I was pregnant (I'm not). Is there any eating/food and fitness advice you would recommend?
I noticed I started having this problem when I began puperty. I am now 25 and it seems to have never gone away, and I sometimes feel it is getting worse. I am interested in any advice you may have. Would you suggest I visit a Doctor, or do you have any other suggestions I should consider?? Please Help.
