    Who said anything about losing fat in only certain spots? I only talked about the waist because that was the OP asked about.

    I've lost inches all over with what I'm doing.

    Nobody used those exact words, you certainly didn't, but it's a common misconception that some specific type of exercise will "give" you a smaller waist, or thinner thighs or whatever, when it has more to do with total fat reduction and where your body chooses to store fat.

    Don't forget the 6-pack abs... and buns of steel

    My middle resembles more of drinking the 6-pack, and not just toting it around.

    Ah, yes, menopause, slowing metabolisms, and all that, is such fun. I've told my doctor on more than one occasion that it isn't fair!

    The 6 pack is real! I've got about a 4 pack now. It kind of reminds me of a 4 pack of Red Bulls. And I'm pretty sure my metabolism has increased since what use to satisfy me at meal time leaves me still rather hungry now.
