Re: How to get rid of that stuburn Internal Belly Fat?!

Nice thanks!


ANyways adrenals, cortisol, thyroid, insulin, all of it is tied together but over my head to explain....and if this is the issue, its due to some drastic change in your life and not overeating or stopping training....ie you can find a good anti aging, hormone balancing, integrative/holistic MD to help you sort it out. So if you are someone who was really lean and athletic most of your life, and with little changes in diet you all the sudden pack it on, there could be some issues...if you pigged out on shit for a few months, well thats probably your answer there...

Im sorry for any confusion by my intial short post...I was a steady 10-12% my entire life, than shit hit the fan and I climbed to 30% and was like WTF all of it in my belly....no matter what diet or workouts I did I couldnt change it and was upset to say the least....got my hormones checked, and then started getting all these new topics thrown at me I never thought Id deal with, HRT, thyroid, adrenal issues, cortisol, insulin resistance,etc...

SO if your not pigging out, and hop on this thread because you too had a WTF period in your life you gain a ton of belly fat, checking out some of the links above might be of benefit. I just did a quick google, there are tons more.

Sorry if i missed it but what did you conclude was your problem.

I know i gained most of it during my gf's pregnancy and i took on most of her craving side effects. It was our first time living alone and i opted for fast food alot.

So you have been raising a new baby and that takes up a lot of your time and energy. I'm sure your diet nor your excercising have been consistant with your goals.
If this is the case don't be so hard on yourself. Get a good diet plan together and when you do post and ask for opinions. I thought I was eating pretty good and I found out it wasn't so great.

Sorry if i missed it but what did you conclude was your problem.

Im not sure about the guy who started the thread, as someone indicates he opted for fast food. My problem was "adrenal fatigue", insane amounts of cortisol over a long period of time, low thyroid, low test, low IGF-1, then a "crash" I guess of adrenals and little cortisol output, which further complicates the hormonal system.

As for the other person on cortisol, how did your doctor check you for it?! there are many good supplements that you can take if its just a little low, taking supplemental cortisol should only be done after you know for certain that yours is not up to snuff...ie blood test, but also a 24 hour saliva test to see how it fluctuates during the day, and also I know Ive done some urine tests as well....cortisol isnt something to just take as part of a HRT stack unless you really really need it....if its low like mine was, along with low thyroid, something about the thyroid meds wont do much if the cortisol is too low...again Im no expert, just swimming through these issues myself for first time.
