I have such a problem with my figure that I have too much fat, especially on the sides of my belly and on my stomach. I am generally skinny and recently my friends have often asked me if I am pregnant. I gained so much weight when I started working - I explain and I have to sit at the computer all day. Can you advise me on how to get rid of the fat in these places. Let me just say that after joint surgery I must not put any weight on my knee. Running, jumping, fitness - if there is too much step, it's also out of the question.
The structure of our body, and especially the places where fat is stored, are strongly genetically determined. There is little we can do about it. It is worth following the recommendations of dietitians and exercise instructors, because it is easy to gain weight, and it is much more difficult to get rid of unnecessary kilograms. For women, adipose tissue is usually deposited in the area of the hips and thighs (this is a gynoid type of obesity - pear), while for men in the abdominal area (this is the android type of obesity - an apple), the android type is a particularly dangerous type of obesity, because scientifically high affinity with cardiovascular diseases has been demonstrated. in people who have this type of obesity. I recommend going to a nearby fitness club and exercising under the supervision of a specialist. If you cannot put stress on your knees, I recommend an activity that relieves the joints, e.g. swimming, aqua aerobics, etc.
