Every part of my body is very thin, except for the bottom of my stomach. I hate it. It has fat down there, and whenever I gain weight that's basically the main place it goes. Other places in my body could use some fat, I don't see why the stomach. Help??. Created by Jessica. health-en - diet-fitness-en

Underweight but pudgy in lower stomach?

You are actually describing the reason why liposuction is so popular. It is meant to remove pockets of fat that are resistant to diet and exercise - it is not for weight loss. Most candidates are either at or near their ideal body weight with just specific areas that just don't respond to traditional weight loss methods. I have a similar issue with the area (I call it a "muffin top" since it spills out a little over the top of my jeans like the top of a muffin!), but have been looking into CoolSculpting. I'm actually really excited about it! It's supposed to be a non-surgical alternative to liposuction with no downtime and no real side effects. This site has some more information about it, including videos and how it works.

I have that exact same problem! But unfortunately theres nothing you can do about it. But don't worry, no-one actually notices. From the angle when you look down it looks a lot bigger than it actually is. I have told people about how I think I look pregnant and they all say that I don't and that I can't complain because I'm really skinny. So don't worry, no-one but you can tell and many girls would love to be that skinny :)
