I have some sad news for you!
Only a scalpel can make you loose weight in a specific place of your body. Most women wants to loose weight on their tummy and thies, but their breasts loose weight first =(
The only way you can get rid of ANY fat is to LOOSE weight. And NOT just eating right, but exercising so your muscles help you loose it. I am sorry I don't have the energy to read the whole thread, so I don't know if anyone already said this:
Muscles use more energy than fat, this means: if you exercise regularly (just 3½ hours in all during a week where you get your pulse high) and you eat less calories than you spend, you will loose weight. Ant the tire around your waist will come off too in time

But you can't exercise it away.
But remember: exercising is more important than eating right if you
have to choose, since being fat and in goold shape is much better than being thin and out of shape - comparing those 2 will gicve you the result that the fat person has less sickdays and lives longer. We have a overweight researcher in Denmark who has made a lot of studies about this.
So is one day you don't have time to cook right AND exercise, choose th exercise over the healthy meal
And another thing: when you make changes in your eating habits, only make changes that you can live with for the rest of your life. Going on a diet will maybe make you loose some weight, but if you go back to your old lifestyle afterwards, you will put it all and more back on

I see that so often in my clinic
