If her tummy bothers her, which it clearly does, whether she hides it and hates it or whether she doesn’t hide it, it’s still on her mind enough to bother her. Why doesn’t she put a little effort in reduce her tummy? Holding large around your middle isn’t a sign of beating the evil diet industry system Alison, it’s a sign your body is unhealthy and it could set you up for serious health issues later in life. Belly large is bad news. No one should have to aspire to a size 6 and it is hard to shift belly weight but it wouldn’t take much to make a difference. Reduce bloat, half a stone would make her feel so so so much fitter, healthier and genuinely “body confident”.
