Hi Joan, I agree with David as for having Woman around. As for the fluke part,
Nah You ain't no fluke. To be truthful none of us needed this to happen to us where
we can't work and take care of ourselves. This was mean't to show others to
be more careful doing what they like to do, cause it co
Hi Joan,
You ladies may be flukes, but what would we men do without you around?? :-)

I challenge any body builder to sit in a chair for just a week and watch what
happens. In a sitting position, the stomach is most relaxed, so it tends to
bulge.
But to reduce the Budda, cut out the white stuff and you will see the results

Don't ya hate it? I generally lose most of my belly when I have a
bowel movement. I just thought it was caused by repetitive gas buildups. My

I agree with you Stacey. If you have a big belly to begin with when
you were injured it's going to stay with you and if you have a small belly when
you are injured it should stay small unless you eat too much. Also,
pushing a wheelchair and working your arms all day long is good exercise
If you have a big belly when you're injured you will not lose it but if you
have a small belly when you're injured and then gain a lot awake that is a
different story.

ople in
general. I also think that if you dont have a belly to begin with then
your chances are better but once you get one it's harder to get rid of it.
In my opinion.

I have to agree with LQ. It is possible to prevent a quad gut by maintaining one's weight and posture. When I was able to stay thin and wore an effective abdominal binder I did not have a quad belly for eight years. My problems started when I was wearing an abdominal binder that had lost its ela

There is some truth to that. But I would seriously consider working out with
a
trained body and strength coach. Eliminate, anything in your diet that is

As my forearms and calf muscles have atrophied to the size of a toothpick I have noticed my belly has started to produce what everyone refers to as a "quad gut." I believe this happened when I gained too much weight and then lost the weight. I do wear an abdominal binder and always have, but it do
