Question: What's the most effective way of loosing weight around my thighs and
bum. I used to exercise a lot but don't have time now and the weight
has started to pile on. i'm thinking of buying a (cheap) rowing
machine. will that work?
Can anyone give me some advice?
Answer: Fat makes a great storage form, since it "excludes" water (this is the
real reason that carbs and proteins have fewer calories per gram than fat
does - as carbs and proteins contain water, which is calorie free, and fat
does not - so it makes for efficient storage - like condensed soup).
The areas of fat concentration tend to be abdominal in aging men, hips &
thighs in aging women & buttocks in certain races as those individuals age.
The age at which this occurs varies from person to person. Changes in
metabolism & fat deposition can also occur more quickly such as after
childbirth. It is easier to lose fat from areas in which your body tends to
not concentrate fat. The fat doesn't go to one place & then another as in
first, second etc.. It goes all over but more of it is stored in specific
areas & it is mobilized from other areas more easily. This could be
interpreted as last on first off. That is why spot reduction exercises do
not work & why you cannot shift fat concentration from one area of the body
to another. This also explains why fad diets do not work.
Liposuction can be used to alter body contours or spot reduce areas of
deposited fat but not for weight reduction. When it is
used for weight reduction the complication rates go way up. For example
someone with a
double chin undergoes liposuction. The double chin is gone however,
on the scale no weight change is seen. The end result of liposuction is
dependent on what is left behind (skin & fat) rather than what is removed.
If an even layer of fat remains there will not be indentations. If the
remaining skin has not lost its elasticity it will shrink to accommodate a
lesser amount of underlying fat
