I've made a lot of progress.  However...

Some people will never get completely flat bellies if they've had them a long time.  I've had mine since age 17.  It gets fatter. But, if I were to reduce too far everything else gets too scrawny.

There are those who say that I can lift weights to bulk up my arms, legs and shoulders. However, my face actually gets too skinny. As arms and legs I can always wear long sleeve shirts (which I hate by the way) and relaxed fit pants and jeans. But, what do you do to keep your face from looking like you are a starving POW? I mean other than Botox injections?  Of course the other route would be Liposuction on the gut. Neither are paleo or safe.

I don't expect much, just my six pack would be nice to have back...

Although I've never had a "six pack" I did have a "keg" for a few decades...  Now I have barely a bar mug.  AND I plan on staying PALEO for the next 20 years...so I may possibly get an abdominal set of "8 ounce cans" before I share a drink with my buddies in hell (or heaven...you never know.)  JMull

I can tell I'm shrinking because my pants are getting looser, but my belly seems to be the last to go.  Dammit.

I lost 2" off my waist but I still have a little pouch of fat on my belly that just won't go, unless I lose a lot more weight which I don't want to do!  It's my natural shape (natural for most females when not exposed to high levels of photoshop!) but I really don't like it so I'm getting it zapped with ultrasound in a couple of weeks...!

How does that work? Where are you getting it done? Do let us know the results.

My belly has dropped down around and just under my hip line.  Smaller, but still there.  Noticed that on Doug too.  But it is shrinking daily!

Eat it not because Paleo man ate it, but because he showed us it's healthy. Do not because Paleo man did it, but because he showed us the way.

It's called liposonix.  The ultrasound breaks down the fat cells, and the fat is released and burned by the body as fuel over the course of 3 months or so, during which you're supposed to have a small calorie deficit and do lots of low-level activity, like walking and hiking.  It's best used on slim people with stubborn localised fat deposits.

I'm getting it done in Harley street.  3 one hour sessions or so.  No surgery or needles or anything.
