Question: Does flab ever go away?

I went to the store with my oldest dd. She tried on some pants and had flab hanging that was left over from her 3 babies. She says there is only so much one can do to get rid of it. After that there is surgery. She has a special saving account for that.

Now I have a gread big belly and I was hoping I could get rid of most of it.

What say you all?

My flab has not gone away either, but I hear that you are at a greater chance the younger you are, the more water you drink and toning regularly.

Exercise is key here, Yoga or Pilates really help with flab, however nothing beats cardio.


I am having the same issues in some places. My upper arms and my belly a little bit.


I am going to have surgery on my arms for sure. The excess skin. If I loose 100#s chances are I am going to have some skin that is going to need to be removed.


You can tone most anything with light weights and hi reps. But some things really take a LONG time.
