I always say if I could just slide my gut fat to my ass I'd be soooo happy.

Most women are "pear" shaped and store fat in hips/thighs/butt. But some like me and probably you are "apple" shaped where we store most of the fat in our tummies (sometimes boobs). Apple people also have a higher risk of diabetes too.

I'm really thinking of lipo next winter (exercise hard due to disability) because if I find a pair of jeans that fit in the waist the rest is huge. If I find a pair that are perfect everywhere else the waistband is tight.

I love Paige HH size 29 kicks ass, except for the giant roll over my waistband which leaves that lovely red mark on my skin when I take off the jeans. I don't have much of a bootie, so girls, love your booties. They cushion you when you sit, they are sexy and make the female form worth celebrating!

also isn't not about how fast you run or how hard you exercise but how long you keep your heart rate up in the like "fat burning zone"?

That's actually really not true at all. Honestly think about people at the gym: the people working harder tend to be a lot thinner than the people working lightly in the "fat burning zone."

In the fat burning zone, you burn a greater percentage of fat calories. Let's say you burn 300 calories and 2/3 of them are from fat, so 200 calories. If you work much harder and burn 450 calories but only 50% of them are from fat, you burn 225 fat calories, plus 225 glycogen calories. This means that more of the food you eat will go towards glycogen instead of fat.

More calories burnt = more fat lost.
