PEAR SHAPE August 20, 2008
I am and always have been a pear shape - big thighs, big hips, big butt and a pouch on the lower part of my stomach. I have been doing some research and this is what I heard:
You cannot in any way, anyhow ever spot reduce While you can work muscles in one particular area, you cannot selectively lose fat from one area of your body. There are exercises and ways of reducing overall fat, but if you tend to hold fat in one area (usually either midsection or hips/thighs) it will probably be the last fat to go - that fat sooo overstays its welcome!
the only way is to burn fat
wish we could pick and chose, life would be so much easier! my hubby says running gets rid of fat all over, but i just hate running, so i dont listen.
