I work out 5 days a week and seem to lose alot of weight except for my belly. At first it was soft and saggy because I had a baby a while back. But now it hard and round like a pop belly! What's going on?!!

I suggest trying the newly developed Cinch weight management program. Folks are seeing great results in reducing their belly fat on this program.
On most diets, you lose muscle, as well as fat. When you lose muscle, you lose some of your body's ability to burn fat, and your metabolism drops.
The doctors, nutritionists, and scientists drew upon years of sports and nutrition science to create an easier and healthier plan. In a recent preliminary clinical trial, the scientists tested a proprietary formula enhanced with the amino acid leucine. People in the program lost fat, weight, and inches while retaining 100% of their lean muscle.
Hope this is useful and feel free to contact me if interested in the website.

The funny thing about belly's is that you can actually exercise them into a nice round shape! Make sure that while doing exercises that you suck you stomach in hard. You need to do this no matter what part of you you are exercising. So suck it in during arm work, leg work, cardio, etc.
My father in law never lost his belly until he went on a rather extreme low saturated fat diet. The only rule of the diet was that he couldn't have more than 10 grams of saturated fat a day. He could have the other types of fat and carbohydrates etc. He has always been a runner and ate a pretty healthy diet. His wife had cholesterol issues so she started the diet and for the first time in his adult life the tummy went away!
I've had four kids and my stomach is shot but I it does go down with good diet and exercise.

Try not to sit right after a meal (they say this is one cause of a bigger belly), dont do shortcuts with groceries and other routinary activities (i.e. longer workouts by walking the longer routes home, trying to shorten driving by walking instead when you are going somewhere near, etc.) In this case, I believe that small things help.
Watch out for foods with too much calories and starch...keep on course with a healthy lifestyle.

Do sit ups every single night, start with 25 and work your way up, adding 5 each week. Before you know it you'll have a tight firm, muscular stomach.

You may have diabetes. A belly that won't go away is a sign of diabetes. Get a fasting blood glucose test from your doctor.

Just attach it to your car keys. I lose those all the time.

babies are evil. they likely messed you up for life... sorry. you can still try though, but starvation and torture through workout won't be much fun.
