Belly Hang??
when i was fit i never experienced this. i am a 17 yr. old male. yet now as i am "gaining" (i've put on 65+lbs. of fat in the past few months on purpose) yet my belly until recently stuck straight out... yet i noticed it is finally slightly hanging now... (it's a whopping 47inches) my question is why did people who had stomach's smaller than mine hang, while mine stuck straight out almost as though it were pregnant/budda belly/pumpkin belly weird for a dude. but anyway i just dont get why it took my belly this long to start hanging & wutnot... thanx!

When you put on wieght gradually, like most people, your body gets used to the excess fat and then stretches, but in your case the wieght was was put on all at one time, so you seemed bloated because your body wasn't used to it.

My ideas? Try to do 200 minutes of cardio a week. Remember fat does not turn into muscle, so you need to lose your fat while putting on muscle. Work hard, but don't over 60 minutes at a time. Do planks and other abs exercises on alternate days.
On training days, do 5-10 minutes of cardio to warm up, then do your weight training. Do 30 to 60 minutes more of cardio, then go home.
The best time to eat is just after your workout within an hour when your metabolism is raging. For your muscles, incorporate some isolated soy protein or whey protein. Whey is more potent but the soy tastes better!
Don't look at your scale as the be all and end all, but get a measuring tape to check your progress, and that will show more tangible results.
Read magazines like Shape, Womens Fitness, Fitness, etc to get tips and to stay motivated.
Good luck and stick at it. This plan has lost me 20 lbs in 12 weeks so far, just go for it!
