Just a quickie: How does the body decide where fat will be lost from and is there a way to 'choose' or focus on one area of the body to lose fat? Thanks.
Purely genetics. Some people lose fat in other places then others. Interesting fact though: People who lose alot of fat pretty fast get sore heels. This is because there is a pad of fat protecting the ankle and cushioning the blow of walking, and fatter people are used to more cushioning and it takes some adjusting (and often better shoes) for them to be able to walk pain-free.
Yep, it's genetics. Generally, women are predisposed to having more fat around the buttocks and hips, and men tend to store more around the belly and chest area. As you lose fat, these are usually the last areas to go. This is usually a blow to most people
Indeed - the body tends to lay fat down in a certain order and you will lose it in reverse order. i.e. If you gained fat around the belly first and then slowly ballooned up, then the fat on your belly will likely be the last to go.
