I noticed my stomach is very toned except for the belt line, i cannot seem to lose the fat from above the belt line, any suggestions to which work out will do this, i am pretty thin at 6'4 182, there should be no fat after 7 weeks of working out, but this fat will not go away. I keep thinking if i lose more weight, but then i will look sickly. I also sit 7 hours a day that might be part of it also.
Thanks

We all have a last hurrah type of area. Just keep at it. It's purely a matter of overall body fat %. Once it gets low enough that spot will disappear. Actually, adding some mulsce mass will increase your metabolic rate and may be the easiest way to rid yourself of that last bit of excess fat.

of excess fat

Do i diet to lose the fat in conjuction with working out, as i really do not want to lose anymore weight. I try to eat pretty healthy most of the time.

The 'spare tire" on guys is very stubborn, much like the hips on women.

If you add some muscle and keep your calorie intake the same, you'll lose fat. Your body has to feed that muscle, so it'll burn fat to do so.

Since you're thin, try to add muscle to your upper body. Not only will it help burn fat, but it'll give you that nice V shape.

Good luck.

Results will vary. Weight loss may be temporary as exercise and proper diet are required to maintain long-term weight loss and muscle gain.
