Why I put on weight only on my tummy?

It depends on what you eat and what areas your exercises target.   Men tend to store unneeded calories in the belly area, just like women in their hips and legs.  How to avoid this?  Crunches to target those areas and avoid partially hydrogenated oils and high fructose corn syrup.  Those two ingredients alone are in many foods some unsuspectingly like: salsa and ketchup not to mention french fries and soda.   Be faithful to your diet and exercises to two weeks, you will notice a difference.   Good luck!

It is a fact that most of your body structure is based from your Genes. I'm 36 and have a hard time managing my weight. But this should not keep you from trying. Try changing your exercise program by doing different exercises or stepping up past your current level. Working more muscles burns more fat. I get good results from doing this and it really helps me. Don't confuse your weight gain with building muscle. It adds weight too. Try doing body measurements with a measuring tape or calipers available at most sporting good stores. This will help you see your results and track your true progression. And if this helps I do recall China saying in her book how she was overweight when she was younger, now look at her. Been in Playboy, TV etc. etc. But the one thing she didn't do was give up.

You're gaining muscle.  You should have taken all of your body measurements before you started exercising/eating right so that you could now compare your current measurements to see where the fat is going away.  That way you'll know you're making progress and won't feel bad when the scale goes up.

Look up "Visceral Fat" on the internet. At least I think thats what its called. Its the fat thats actually located not only on top of your stomach muscle, but under it, causing that "pooch" look. Its best removed with exercise that is ment to burn fat from the entire body (Running, or just walking quickly for 30mins a day) Also belly fat increases dramatically if a month or more goes by without significant exercise. Lowering your body fat percentage, not your actual weight is the goal here. Less fat equals less tummy.

Most guys prefer a girl with some meat on her bones. It really doesn't matter how much you weight, it depends on how you are proportioned. I'm only 5'2 and weigh about 130, so your not much bigger than me. But there was a time when I only weighed 103 pds and i looked horrible. My boyfriend says your not fat until your tummy is bigger than your breasts. :0)

It sounds like you are at a pretty good weight.  You have to be happy with your body, nobody else.  If you feel underweight gain a few pounds, but if you feel overweight lose a few pounds.  Its you being happy with your body that is important.

only the muscles in your but. go to the gym and do exercises targeting the but muscles. there is no way to select where on your body you put on fat.

My wife breast fed so the extra weight just slipped off. At the end she too had around 10 pounds or so and just had to hit the gym. She focused on abdominal exercises as tolerable to strengthen that area back up (don't go overboard though, it takes a couple of years for them to heal naturally and you don't want to tear anything worse than it already is), and mostly did cardio for overall fitness and calorie burning.

Have you had this looked at by your doctor? It might not have anything to do with your anorexia at all, but could be a hernia.\n\nBut ultimately, you need to stop obsessing about your shape before you send yourself spiralling back into anorexia. \n\nI can't imagine you having a HUGE bulge and still weigh 120 lbs. To the rest of us, it is probably no more than a normal woman's belly. \n\nIf you are really upset about this, why don't you go to a reputable plastic surgeon and have liposuction done? And if it's not a fat deposit that is responsible for this, he can tell you that too.\n\nBefore you think that I don't know what I'm talking about...I was anorexic and bulimic myself. It lasted for over 3 years until I managed to get it under control. My anorexia didn't manifest itself until after the birth of my second daughter. And during the whole of the anorexic and recovery cycle, I did not once develop a huge bulge on my lower abdomen.

Too hard to do both things at the same time, you better get the weight first and then start working out with ur mid section....\nGetting weigh require to eat kind of foods that toning the mid section will reject... Like pasta for example, even though is a good carb that feed ur muscles, if u r working on ur mid section this is not a good food to eat....

You have some good answers here, the ones that talk about medical attention.  Have you ever noticed that the starving kids on the save the children adds always have tummies?  You do need to get medical assistance plus a support group.  Being thin is better than being fat but too thin is no good.  You need to find a weight that you are happy with and the body figure that goes along with it.

Sophie, that is a really difficult question for people to answer. You are obviously fit as you ride and walk a lot. Muscle weighs more than fat, so you may weigh more that some people and still not be fat. I am the same height as you and when i was your age i was fairly slender and about 8 and a half stone. I am now 49 and i weigh about 11stone and although i've got a bigger tummy than i'd like and probably need toning up i am still not fat.\n\nThe most important thing is to stay active, eat sensibly but allow yourself some treats, and don't worry about what you actually weigh. If you truly think you are under or overweight, then see a doctor for proper advice. However, i'm sure you are fine.\n\nKeep happy and healthy. Life is not about what you weigh, but about being a nice person!\n\nLove,\n\nFaith x

probably the same reason my boobs are small, its just in the jeans baby, but getting off it might help, go to the gym hit that treadmill girlfriend and walk it to a lean mean look at my hot butt machine.

I'm guessing u think u weigh too much. Have u just tried to talk ur problems out with some who cares or has the same problem? I use to think i didn't/ couldn't weigh enough. I ate everything in sight and couldn't get over a hundred lbs. I couldn't find anything to wear, everything was too big. even my size 0 jeans. So I guess i had to opposite problem. It went away after I had a kid. I use to talk to girls who had eating disorders to help them.

You are not overweight. Losing 10 lbs when you are only 113 lbs now would only make you look emaciated. I know because I am 5'3" and for a while weighed about 115. I was all bones, except for the flabby tummy. People who had known me for years kept telling me to eat!!! As for the tummy, exercise (crunches, etc) should do the trick unless you have had kids.... Then the tummy will never be the same!!!

Um its in your genes, wait until you get a little older, than you'll be asking why does my fat roll move when driving over a bumpy road. It happens to all of us, unless you have tape worms thats eating everything you eat and you dont gain weight. It could be your matabolism burns the food up quicker, lay off of doing too much activities, this also burns up fat,.So needless to say, you have NOT a fat bone in your body.
