I have a theory, and that's all it is, that the longer fat has been there, then the more reluctant the body is to use it up. The good news is that once it's gone, the body has a tendency to re distribute fat in a different order once we break the strict dieting phase. I am seeing fat being laid down around the kidney area first, but my abs & serratus are still very sharp, even this long after my comps have finished, and I'm 30lbs heavier than my contest weight.

Just get the diet right (just, he says, like it's that easy), do 30-40 mins pre breakfast cardio every day & it will happen in time. Sadly, it is down to hard graft, willpower with the diet & perseverence. This is where 95% of people will fail, make a decision NOW not to be one of them.
