You have all heard the saying, or even said it once or twice yourself ~
A Moment on the Lips a Lifetime on the Hips ?
Yup.. the dreaded Muffin TOP! Seems to be the one part of the body that I struggle with the most. I can define my arms, legs, shoulders, chest, back.. but not the damn middle (abs). My upper abs get some definition but my lower…well I do think they hate me!
Did you know that you muffin top can happen very quickly. Meaning, it can be built in a day. Just because Rome wasn’t built in a day doesn’t mean your muffin top isn’t!
On average people can add up to 3 teaspoons of belly fat within four hours after eating a high-fat meal. The fatty tissue makes a temporary home around the waist before being stored elsewhere. So, get up off your butt and workout before that fat finds a forever home!
























So true! It tastes wonderful at the time though! If you stay active, you can certainly help to reduce or eliminate it.
Great advice – thanks for sharing.
One day!! Ughh!!
I found that Chalene’s workouts help me trim the middle quickly. Love Turbo Jam and am looking forward to ChaLEAN extreme and Turbo Fire in the future.
As for diet, a little indulgence here and there isn’t so bad. But, making it a habit definitely plunks it on your body.
I love turbo jam
And yes, Chalene is one I recommend for middle section help
This just made me feel a little guilty lol. Good thing I have a little extra leeway right now since I’m pregnant
I didn’t have issues with muffin top until after I had kids. I definitely need to work out more.
I agree 100% love the muffin pix LOL.
that pic is tooo funny! 3 teaspoons in four hours…oh man! this was needed…but i wish i didn’t know, lol!
Wow, I had no idea it could happen that quickly!
Thanks for that wake up call. I’ll think twice now before digging in to fatty meals.
Haha great pic. And WOW! 3 teaspoons within 4 hours! That’s a great way to put it in perspective.. that can add up fast!
That is unreal how fast it can happen. Wow.
Scary isn’t it.
I need to remember that about the muffin top and start only taking one bite of desserts just to get the flavor and then passing on the rest. Definitely not worth the muffin top.
One just doesn’t realize how fast a person can start getting a muffin top.
I need to remind myself of that saying more often.
How did you get a photo of me in jeans! *snickers*
This is good advice. Hoping I get rid of the baby weight soon after the baby is born.
LMAO!! No.. that is me
eesh! Well, that’s motivating!
I find it hard to resist, despite the muffin top!
Going to exercise now.
So true, true, true! I really try to taste and not finish!
Ugh after my c-section its the worst. Plus it still hurst even after 7 months! Serious nerve damage.
That picture alone speaks volume.
Great advice. I need to increase my exercising.
I had no idea it can happen that fast!
I had no idea! Thank you for the information!
It’s so crazy how fast it can happen but this post is 100% true
I’m working on trying to get rid of my muffin top now. I never had this problem before kids lol.
I can’t believe it only takes 4 hours!
I have a little one from having a C-section – ugh
I love that pic! Something to think about for sure.
