Under 11 stone but still have a belly.

My Stats:

Male
5'6''
10 3/4 Stone (68kg) (150lbs)

I still have a bit of a belly on me. Not sure if it is fat or lose skin (pretty sure it is fat). Thought I would be slimmed down when I reached this weight. My face, chest, arms and legs have slimmed just the belly is taking it's time to follow. Should I be worried?

Have you done abdominal work to burn that fat off? I would increase abdominal workouts and wait for results, and running should help, combined, they should burn that nasty fat off.. Goodluck.

Don't worry about it mate, the stomach is usually the last place fat is burnt off of on a guy. If the scales say you are lighter, and you know it's not muscle mass you're loosing then it will slowly fade away.
It does take a long time.....and contrary to the post above, you cannot spot burn fat(no matter how many crunches you do), just do your normal fat burning routine and it will come off eventually, or increase when fat loss slows down....

You shouldn't be worried, you should start eating and lifting weights.

as above, targetting fat loss isnt really something you can achieve without surgery !. it will go with time though. I will also agree with the running comment, itl also help bring out your abs more as your core muscles supply a lot of power when you run and generally improve posture as well. natural stance alone can make a big difference to appearance.
Swimming would be a big yes if you have access to a pool. Just keep up the cardio and if you want to keep some sanity id try and keep a relatively good diet (by this i mean dont cut out everything you like to eat and spend ten minutes reading the back of every packet in the supermarket)
just try and be sensible about it and also implement commonly known fat loss facts :)

hope this helps

Don't know if this helps or not but figured I would comment...

I have been working out, with NO free weights for about 2 months now. Hitting up the gym atleast 2-3 times a week. My job is very active so its hard for me to make it sometimes.
Anyways:
I did a lot of cardio, various machines and all and nautilus equipment. I have noticed that my body is alittle more tone, but I think the same with you the belly fat hasn't left yet. By belly I mean in the belly button area :)

6 ft tall 210 pounds give or take 2 pounds and I think the solution would be for now is just as said before, keep at it....

Hey I feel a TON better now than before!!
