Just a quick question... This may be due to getting older (although i'm not old, i'm 24), but i'm not sure. I have noticed that I store bodyfat differently than I used to. I used to never have lower-back and abdominal fat, as most was stored on the tris and thighs! Now, I have just a little hangin' around on my lower back and abs, but not a lot...while my legs and tris are cut! What's the deal? Hormones? | ||

If you've been using androgens, that's what happens with body fat distribution in women. Lose it in the thighs but pick it up in the back and abs. That's a male pattern distribution. However, you'll find it easier to lose there than on the thighs. F1 | ||

Jog my memory Buff. Have you used gear? At your tender age you should have plenty of estrogen running around. But as us chicks get older and our natural estrogen levels plummet, we also develop more and more of the male-pattern fat. It's particularly noticeable in many postmenopausal women. You've all seen the odd shaped old gals in tight pants, looking like a transvestitie. LOL. If you haven't used gear, then it's possibly just the luck of the draw. Personally I'm jealous. I'd happily swap my thigh flab for a bit of a love handle. I spend a lot more time running around in shorts than with my top off! | ||

Hehe, Hey - I'm in Santa training! I do have to take a big breath and then really stick my stomach out, she hates it when I do that.... and truthfully it kind of hurts if I do it to long. So now it's time to shead a few pounds before hitting a big cycle in Jan. ------------------ Lobo | ||
