I've been trying to get a flat stomach for SIX YEARS, and it's still pudgy. I do 100 chrunches a day and the damn stomach is still there! I'm 19, 114lbs, 5'2" and I have 27" waist. But the problem is the area below my belly button-it measures 32"! I need amazing abs by June 26 (My sis is graduating and I risk running into people who were mean to me [the last thing I need is them thinking I'm pregnant]). I'm starting to think that maybe genetics won't let me have a good stomach. Has anyone ever thought that they couldn't get good abs and suddenly they found a mircle cure (other than surgery)?


*****Only serious replies please*****

The only thing bad about my diet is my small daily serving of Doritos

Why can't I have these abs

I'd never have to be afraid of anyone asking"when are you due?"

for real! be happy about your tummy...i've got a pudgy tummy too, and i'm proud of it. i'd rather be volumptuous than stick-thin and havin folks askin me, "do you ever eat?!" cuz you know all them women with the washboard abs/tummies get asked that shit constantly...

LaCoyta said:

maybe i need glasses but i cant see any abs

Handclapsfingasnapz said:

co-sign to the max! i've always had a belly, even when i've been at my thinnest. it's just a part of me. there comes a point in every woman's life where she needs to accept the shape of her body for what it is. too many women can't do that, just look at the plastic surgery industry.

The reason why i rolled my eyes in my earlier post is because it always seems like LaCoyta is constantly on these self-pity trips and no matter what you say nothing can ever get better for her. i hate it when people don't step up. so lacoyta, if you're no someone's sick alter-ego, STEP THE FUCK UP and try to be happy.

there is nothing more sexy than a pot

I am so confused. LaCoyta is... I don't know... you've been trying to get rid of this since you were 13? Anyway... if you're serious, it sounds like you're doing your crunches wrong. You have to contract your muscle and breath out when you "crunch", otherwise, if you're not contracting and you're breathing in when coming up, you can do all the crunches in the world and it will actually pudge you out down there.

Personally, though, I think that little pudge is sexy on women. I don't like women who are too hard, ya need to be a little soft.

LaCoyta, if you've tried everything, than that's how your body's supposed to be. From what you've described, you are small and thin and you just have a 'lil bit of a pooch on ya. If you're really that insecure about it, maybe try clothes that will accentuate the things you like about your body instead of being hung up on a little belly. It's easier said than done, but be proud of your body the way it is!

One more thing, I thin but my belly is soft, too. While watching Janet on TV the other day, I just said, not really seriously, "I'm gonna work out 'til I get her stomach!" Ya know what he said? That he likes it the way it is. That's what most guys want!

But anyway, hell what guys think! Make yourself happy!

Wait a sec..... You are 19..... Believe me or not, your body isn't finished changing yet. Your middle may change a bit in a few years!

LaCoyta said:

Honey, with photoshop or a large bank balance, u can have anything u damned well want.

AzureStarr said:

c'mon now 100 crunches a day and he er uhm she would mos def have a six pack like..... hold up lemme fetch a pic.....

PEJ said:

Yeah, I know... if they were done right. But, if you're doing them the wrong way you actually form your stomach like that... out and not in.

like byron

PEJ said:

Did you photoshop that?!



By the way... see that there towards the bottom sides? That muscle that you guy's can get when working out. The ones down towards the bottom abs that run down the sides...
I like those, especially when they really work them out so they stick out there!
