how much longer? - Friday, June 03, 2005 7:24 PM
Ok i am on my 5th week and ive lost alot of fat around my belly and such however there is still some there. I am running 2 miles per day at 8-9mph as well as doing 60 crunches per day and 60 leg raises. Question is when will this get taken off and when will I start seeing results like chiselled? I know it takes time I just want to get an idea of how much.

Okay, this is not my personal experience.  You're whats called and Endomorph, your body gets fat into it and holds it their.  I'm an ectomorph, in the last 2 years I've gained 5 pounds and 7 inches, obviously I can't gain weight.

The thing is, the chisled look is a combination of a lack of fat and alot of muscle.  If my body gained muscle more easily I would have more chisled abs.  My body has the thinness not the muscle.  Your body probably has the muscle without the thinness.  It takes alot of work to get enough fat off to get a chisled look.

The point is, everyone is different, you could be chisled tomorrow or in a year.  IT all depends on your genes.  To figure out how long it will take you, find people with similar genetics.  I'm going to assume your a guy, so ask your dad, uncle, grandfather, first cousin or someone closely related to you (on both sides mother and father) about how their bodies grow muscle or lose weight.  98% of the time thats what it will be for you.

ok i already lost 15 pounds in like 1 month. I got alot of fat before because I wasnt really active and a medication i took made my metabolism slow down.
