i have a question... ok, whats with the buddy thing? what do buddies do? I mean, what can a buddy do for you that this site cant? Im not critisizing or anything, im curious. Whats the deal? Cuz ppl are constantly posting asking for a buddy, and its getting a tad bit annoying... Along with the constant posts that dont have anything to do with this site at all, like shout outs and random comments about bands and music, im ranting, i know, but PLEASE STOP, its so annoying to come to this board looking for some support or good ideas, and most of the new posts are worthless! Please, everyone, think a few times before you click the "PUT ON BULLETIN BOARD" button. I know, this post id kinda off topic, so im about to make it ON topic: I have been doing crunches for a while now, and my friend gave me some cool new ones, and when i feel my stomach, its tender, and i can feel hard under the fat... its soo annoying, its like even if i tone my entire body, ill forever have this layer of blubber over it! Eating healthily isnt cutting it!! ah, i dunno, my mom is doing that Zone thing where you get your meals delivered, and she said its great cuz its total portion control, and i think thats my problem, but eating out in germany is hell for any portion controller, its like 4 meals, literally.. But now that ive realized this, i can work on it! good luck me!

cardio is the only weigh to burn fat effectively especially on the stomach
cardio activities: swimming, running, walking, riding bikes, anything thing that gets your heart rate up
also diet buddies are great it also prevents alot of those posts that you find annoying because you can talk to these people about absolutley anything because unlike school you dont have to hide anything or risk that they are making fun of you because they are in the same boat!!

you need to make sure you're doing cardio too!
