dgarcia27 5 Posted August 16, 2017 I'm having a hard time losing weight in my arms and back fat. Does anyone have recommendations for certain exercises? I really hate my arms right now and feel like i'm losing everywhere but my arms. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LittleLizzieLilliput 919 Posted August 16, 2017 I do internet searches for those exercises. I use 2 lb weights and do circles and things with my arms as I'm walking, follow a lot of the arm exercises as I run on the treadmill as well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kat410 423 Posted August 16, 2017 Exercise does not make you lose fat. If you exercise, you may be able to increase muscle in the targeted area, but it has no impact on the fat being stored in that area. 1 mybariatricjourney reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
OutsideMatchInside 10,166 Posted August 16, 2017 Just keep losing, eventually your body has to burn the fat, even in the hard places. Just keep going it, comes off. No spot exercising is going to help. Cardio to burn more calories overall will, or just increasing muscle mass to burn more calories Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mybariatricjourney 24 Posted August 17, 2017 You have to eat a proper diet with protien to increase your muscle mass. If your definitely wanting to target fat loss...look into a the ketosis lifestyle where you switch your body from burning the normal sugar and carbs as fuel and start burning fat...even stubborn fat. It Works!!! Especially when you've hit a plateau.This link might help you also speak with your Dr or Nut about it.https://kickincarbclutter.blogspot.com/2017/06/getting-into-ketosis-after-bariatric-surgery.html?m=1mybariatricjourney Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
