I hate stubborn belly fat!  It amazes me that people who are taller than me have such an easy time keeping a flat stomach even if their overall body fat is higher than mine.  I attribute my ability (or lack of) to get rid of belly fat to my height. I’m seeing muscles in my quads pop out everywhere, which I never thought would happen but is the roll around my waist gone?…No!  It seems to persist no matter what I do!  I’ll admit that it’s getting smaller and less prominent but I’ve never worked so hard IN MY LIFE to get anything!!! (well that’s an overstatement, but you get my point).  People think I’m obsessed with my body right now which is absolutely crazy cuz if I was, I wouldn’t still have this roll of fat!  When people tell me that I’m working too hard and need to cut back on the gym, all I can think is ‘If that were true, I wouldn’t still have a belly.’  I feel unworthy of their comments cuz people who are truly obsessed already have the perfect abs.  The belly is what wakes me up at 4 AM every morning so I can get to the gym at 5 AM and then it calls me again at 7 PM to get my butt (or should I say belly) back in the gym again.  Whenever I feel like I just want a few more almonds than I should, whenever I feel like I want some dry roasted peanuts (my favorite!), or whenever I feel I want one more rice cake, I have to remember…THE BELLY!
