Please Scroll Down to See Forums Below Im an 18 year old male and about 2 years ago I weighed about 295 pounds. Today I weigh about 195 pounds and I lift weights as often as I can. I lost the weight by reducing my intake of calories and fat calories and walking a mile to two miles a day. However, even though I have lost about 100 pounds I still have a gut around my front waist and am having trouble getting rid of it. Any tips or suggestions? I have started cutting back again and am trying to walk everyday. PLEASE let me know of any way to get rid of this gut quickly!
I still have a GUT, whats the BEST and QUICKEST way to get rid of it???>>>...

Attack the cardio and watch the diet.

The BEST way is NEVER the quickest way. It is also not the easiest way...

man, I'm in the same boat is you. I lost 100 lbs a couple years ago and I STILL have a gut. I cut my ass off, lost fat, but still it wouldn't go away. it's gotta be mostly loose skin, and the only thing to help that is abdominal surgery.

start focusing on the weights now. increase your LBM so you can make the most of your cardio(more muscle=more fatloss capability). a 100 lb weight loss can come from everywhere muscle and fat so put on a bit of muscle to spool up your efforts. it increases your calories burned as well as will fill in some of that loose skin. it sounds like you could have alot of loose skin obviously around the midsection (it will tighten up a bit over time) continue to lean out while gaining muscle and you'll be fine.

yeah, i tried yohimburn on the area, to little effect. however, it did work well on removing some nipple-area fat.

this sounds like and "androgenic fat pattern" with fat concentrated on the front of the torso and (am guessing) a distended beer belly type fat storage pattern....
it is likely a insulin insensitivity related fat gain (which is why yohimburn had little affect the area is not particularly A2 rich)..
you need to do a much as possible to reduce insulin..
try adding ala or r-ala.. (r-ala is likely a better choice as reduction of plama insulin levels is your main goal)
watch the simple carbs.. especially in combination with fats
increase pottassium intake (high sodium low pottssium is a factor in decreased sensitivity)
will post some more ideas on increasing sensitivity and decreasing plasma insulin later today..

how much ALA a day (just bought a bottle)? 1g or so? as far as simple carbs, i'm pretty clean of those now, and that's had a positive effect on reducing the size.
thanks for the info, man

cardio is good, but I think the best way is to have a real clean diet no sugar and minimun carbs with plenty of vegetables and protein.... I have lost 30 lbs and I am staring to put on some more muscle, my lifts are still juist as good... for cardio I try sprinting and boxing at high intensity so I spare muscle mass....

r-ala is just the pure NATURAL isomer of ala
all the scientific evidence to date only shows IMPROVEMENT IN HEALTH
this are just not even comparable
