Belly fat is my friend

I have been exercising and eating better fairly consistently since the beginning of 2010.  Some mornings I exercise with the energy of a Tasmanian Devil and afterwards look like I am about to shuffle off my mortal coil.  But I continue on.  I have lost a good amount of weight and also inches from the various parts of my body.  I haven't officially weighed and measured for a few weeks as finding out I was putting myself through torture each morning and not losing became demoralising (I hit plateau). 

This week I visited my parents and as you do on these occasions I stepped onto their scales.  I was pleasantly surprised to find that the little arrow stopped on a lower number.  However, even with all the weight loss I still have my friend around my middle - a little fat store (not sure for what but it is there).  I have never had a perfectly flat stomach and because of this have never worn a bikini.

My Challenge this month is Plateau Busting so I am trying to do exercise morning and evening.   All the videos I exercise along to tell me that 'a six-pack' is on the way if only I do this exercise a gizillion times each week but so far there is no sign. I enjoy exercise.  I enjoy being a smaller me.  I enjoy the health benefits that the experts tell me I am receiving. 

If only I could get as enthusiastic about the housework ................
