I am looking for any suggestions on how to lose stomach flab, I am 5' 2" and weigh 120 lbs, the past six months I gained at least 15 pounds on the depo shot and I gained it all in my stomach, I have been doing crunches, and riding the stationary bike at least every other day and I tried a few diet pills but I can't seem to loose the rolls. I hate putting on a pair of jeans because I have my fat roll that hangs over the top. If any has any suggestions for me I will try anything I went from a size 0 jeans to a size 6 and everytime I get done eating it seems as if my stomach gets bigger and more solid. Please someone help!!!

I think you should switch bc methods (maybe to the pill)

I was on depo for a year and gained 15 pounds which I could NOT loose until I got off of it. Also, two of my friends did the same way on it.

If getting off depo is no option, make sure you drink LOTS of water. (since depo makes you retain water, drinking a lot will help it flush out) Also, try and moniter your sodium(salt) intake. It makes you retain even more water.

Sweat. Do whatever it takes. Running makes me sweat. It will help you shed that water weight as well as make you feel good and get you in better shape. Hope this helps
