No thanks to the kind of food we put into our mouths in this generation and lifestyles. Gone were the days when men and women stay slim and fit even in their 60's. Today, it doesn't matter anymore if you're single, married, divorced, separated, young or old. There's just some type of "protrusion" somewhere in our body that seems not too pleasant to view. Blame it to hormones added in our food, or that type of hormonal changes that women go through (like water retention and adipose tissues accumulation in unwanted areas). But hey!..Men got it too, you know. And they say that orientals or Asians are not very prone to this condition, but think again...Food has become our main gratification when things are in disarray. We are so dependent on it when we encounter all sorts of emotional upheavals or even merriment. Once we hit the age of 40 or right after childbirth, darn! we often see the love handles hanging both sides and front and back...And getting rid of it is an enormous task to do. It takes one hellava determination to stay fit...Oftentimes, once we get to that point, there's always a backslide...and it's worse. Some say they are happy the way they are, and have learned to love the love handles, eventually. How about you?

This was me in 2004  , but I've added one pound each year thereafter...Hayz!

 don't remind me...just too lazy here to exercise... i really should be more determined and disciplined with my food quality and quantity intake, i eat like a construction worker...or i should learn to burn the excess calories...my 69 yr old mom is slimmer than me!...must be the number

i was so thin during my younger years, had a hard time adding on pounds, because of school and other activities...now that am this old, my problem came in contrast, how to reduce and get rid of those extra flabs and unwanted fats at the right places  ...my mom says, if i were a pig, am worth all those what i hate...

Elsa, I'm so overweight! But, love food too much. So, lazy too exercise. Even with exercise afterwards eat like a horse. Anyways, some men love their women fat. It doesn't phase them. If they truly love them, love is all that matters. [I God is pure love...

This was me in 2004 , but I've added one pound each year thereafter...Hayz! I'm one of the statistics, age plus hormone or lack of it is the culprit that no matter how small I eat ( and that is a big sacrifice on my part) the love handle won't go away and seems increasing more. I have to work out almost everyday just to keep my weight in minimum not just for aesthetic purposes but also for my health. Now you on the hand does not show any changes from your picture of 2004, still has that tiny waist line and flat belly.

I very much like to remove all those love handles but I just love to eat, especially here in Vegas, it's non-stop buffet, even if I keep on saying not to eat there is always someone inviting me for a buffet waaaahhh and one more thing I don't exercise...too lazy...
| ||
6/13/2009 9:35 pm |
it helps to be trim and healthy, but it takes a lot of blood, sweat and tears to attain it..gosh, if you only knew how i work out a lot in the gym haha..but you see, if a man really loves a woman, he wil accept to love even her bulges

I don't like my thick waist ... I miss wearing size 26. My arms are too flabby, so I don't feel comfortable using sleeveless tops When I low my friends et al give me energy.

Here in California....image is everything...and during the summer months...staying fit is like a religion to some. On the other hand...I am not really fond of skinny women. As for me...I have the family curse...a decent chest...a bit of a tummy..and legs like a chicken...LOL

You call it love handle lol we call it in here muffin top! lol cos they spill all over the place! as for me, i am not bothered. i see muffin tops all over the place. i blame those airbrushed pics of celebs in those glossy mags why ordinary wo/men are getting so obsessed with image.

Beware of some exercises, Tess..Actually, some of them can really make you gain weight...But, just like most women, we tend to be emotional eaters.. Yeap, in that exercise class. For two hours going on the threadmill, bicycle, and elcliptic, bench press, etc. Afterwards, came home eating a plateful of chips and a donut. Emotional eaters that's me... Have a blessed sunday... muahs & hugs always  [I God is pure love...

6/14/2009 6:29 pm |
actually elz, i don't have this much problem before of wrong bulges in the wrong place, i was really thin at 100 lbs...i never knew that time i had this myoma in the uterus which was the real culprit, thought i had my mother's genes all along...when i had my total hysterectomy, that was the time that i started getting fats in my tummy, so i got too conscious of sitting down after every meal, para di lumaki ang bilbil....i was about 42 then, when i had the surgery...when i reached 50, there was this growing consciousness on gaining weight pa rin, i stepped the scale at 120 lbs lang, no more no less...pero when i turned 55 up, ala na, my weight played from 126-128, with waistline now at 30-31 from the 27-28, i used to maintain...maybe because i felt i need not be as figure conscious anymore and that the word sexy should be ascribed to someone who should be 45 and below...that was my great excuse in other words... “I hold it true, whatever befall; I it, when I sorrow most.

6/14/2009 6:32 pm |
Psssssstttt! Come on, EVERYBODY!..Let me tell you something: HERE IS ONE EFFECTIVE WAY TO BATTLE THE BULGES. Get motivated to lose weight by NOT ALLOWING YOUR CLOTHES TO FIT YOU. INSTEAD, YOU MUST FIT INTO YOUR CLOTHES....
| ||
6/14/2009 6:34 pm |
What that means is: DO NOT BUY NEW CLOTHES THAT'LL FIT YOUR PRESENT WEIGHT...On the contrary, wear your old clothes, even if they are tight...That'll motivate you to lose weight, and each time they (the old clothes) get a bit looser on you, you'll aspire to lose more love handles...yEAH?

6/14/2009 8:49 pm |
Ta Babez naman eh...I didnt see any love handles.... and you didn't see it but you could have felt it.

wow, quite a responce u got from just the mention of food and body shape...it does sort of validate the claim that appearence is still very important on our lists of priorities...i look at it in a smiple way, if ya think you should loose 20 lbs to look good loose 5 or 10..u'll feel great and will notice the difference , if ya think u should loose 10 lbs , lose 3 or 4, You'll feel and look better anyway...problem with most is that they set thier expectations to high and give themselves a mission impossible, and a great excuse to give up or not even try...and as far as food goes eat whatever ya want to eat.. giving up something to loose weight is again setting a mission impossible for yourself, just cut down on the portions..if ya love icecream , on scoop instead of two, if its pasta, smallar portions, and just one piece of garlic bread instead of three, if its soda, one small glass instead of whole can.. "Mcdonalds", dont give it up, eat a cheesburger instead of a big mac, share a medium fries with ur partner instead of both having large frys each... pizza, once every two weeks instead of every weekend...fish and chicken taste as good as beef or pork, dont give up beef or pork, just sub chicken and fish in more often...give this 20 days and tell me u havent lost at least 5 lbs, .."by giving up nothing". ..and no im not a nutritionist, but i did sleep in the holiday inn express last night...
