Exactly how skinny do you want to be? You're already eight stone, which I thought was skinny enough.

I wanted you to feel as though there is nothing wrong with your weight. But if you're persistent, try exercising and eating healthy. Do Not Give Into Temptation!

How tall are you? Your height matters as well when it comes to weight.

You are already on the cusp of being underweight with a BMI of 19.9. I would focus on building muscle instead.

okay thank you :smile: but trust me I know I'm not skinny, I have a lot of stomach fat and i'm doing cardio workouts to try and reduce that..
Hi OP.

What people haven't seemed to have mentioned here is the proven link between visceral fat (ie: unhealthy fat around the organs like the heart, liver, kidneys and stomach etc) and consumption of refined/added sugar. Sugar (ie: Sucrose) on a molecular scale is 1 part fructose and 1 part glucose. Fructose is a toxin that is metabolised by the liver in a very similar way to alcohol. It is why over-consumption of sugar and/or alcohol both lead to the classic "beer belly" and can result in similar chronic bodily disorders. Cut out foods with added sugar (can be difficult since almost all packaged food in the supermarket has lots of the stuff) and stick to whole foods as much as humanly possible. That means the vast majority of breakfast cereals and all (yes ALL) soft drinks such as coca-cola and even fruit juices are horrifically bad for you because of all enormous quantity added sugar they contain that will be highly detrimental to your goals of losing belly-fat.

No matter how well you exercise, you cannot outrun a bad diet. That's a fact. Diet is at least 80-90% of the story when it comes to weight loss.

Good luck.

Okay you will lose that weight and what will be revealed, nothing. You should focus on building muscle so there is something to reveal.
