I need help and urgently.

My face has reduced in size, my stomach has reduced by 9 inches, my hips have reduced by 5 inches, even my moobies have reduced but these damn love handles or the tyre around my middle is just not getting smaller. What to do what to do.

Exercise exercise and more exercise, but targeted at the area you want to shift!

Situps, side twists, side bends holding dumbells, leg lifts and other core exercises if you can do them will all help that bit of you.

Massage the area regularly, maybe in the shower or perhaps you and Arlene could find time for a mutual "rub the floppy bits" session or two a week?

Or possibly a slendertone machine, I've heard good things about them and you can spot-target the areas that they work on I believe.

If all else fails there's always liposuction though........

Thanks, liposuction??? Lol. I read that the only real way to lose them is through weight loss and of course exersise but it also said that it is always the last place to go.

Mark, brilliant inch-loss. to lose love handles, you need oblique ab exercises - there's a great one which you do lying down. I won't attempt to describe it, but here's a link to a very nice lady showing how to do it. Let us know how you get along!

Hi Mark,

Exercise definitely, but also I find that I lose in different places at different times, so maybe the love handles will be the next to go!

Good luck, and get started on those sit-ups.

Yes i know sit up's are really good but i find the best way i toned was walking, atleast an hour every day purley for exercise, ( i.e not distination ) so that way i was taking time out for me ... i still walk as much as possible as i just think it's the best form of exercise and it really has changed my shape,

and sadly love handles are always the last to go
