Thread: Lost 80 lbs, still have a fat stomach.

Hello. In January I was 250lbs, now I'm down to 170 lbs, but I still have fat all around my core. It's really annoying. I ran 8 kilometers every single day for months and lost 80 lbs but my stomach fat is still very apparent. I have a beer gut I guess, from eating excess carbs and food growing up. I'm only 20, though. I'm tired of holding my stomach in 24/7 while sitting or doing basically anything. I don't want to go to a gym because I'm self conscious and do not want to work out in public. I lost access to my elliptical trainer (what I lost 80 lbs on) because I moved out of my parents' house.

I have a fitness mat that I can do crunches on, and I've started doing pushups daily, just like 10-20.

I do eat very well, no sugars or fried foods. Barely any breads, but I get some carbs from rice/crackers throughout the week. I eat breakfast every morning and drink lots of water.

I just need help getting rid of this stomach fat.. i'm seriously so tired of it.. i didn't work for 6 months straight to not have what i want.

please help me... I'm desperate... is there ANYTHING I can do at home daily to start burning this stomach fat?

I have the Ab-Ripper X from P90x collection... I could do that 3-4 times a week... would that help along with dieting and doing what I'm doing?

I watch The Biggest Loser show and what I learned is that you have to shock your body for it to burn fats. When your body can't be shocked anymore of your exercise routine, it won't burn any fat anymore. Try to do more variety of cardio exercises. Do exercises that will boost your metabolism like weight lifting to strengthen your muscles. And whatever you do, do not skip breakfast because that will slow your metabolism down and you don't want that to happen because you may have saved yourself some calories but the calories you eat later will be more difficult to burn.
