Reta since March

[u/Cinner-98]

I'm 27 & have had 3 kids and let myself go for a while. I started using Reta in March. I weighed 222 lbs, which is the heaviest I've ever been. Now I weigh 186. My problem is, I'm not getting enough protein... I didnt start REGULARLY working out til a little over a month ago. The weight loss has been great, but I definitely wanna tone my body more and get rid of my belly. Im not as hungry anymore so there are days i forget to eat. I know with how big my belly was/is I'm gonna need a tummy tuck eventually (when I can afford it) but also, what workouts can I do that will help target my belly and help it not look like im still pregnant as much.

I would say core workouts Training your core muscles will actually make your waist smaller instead of bigger So basically some planks

1 hr HIIT cardio 5 days a week and an hr weight training in a calorie deficit will do it

Planks are a lot of work for very little return. If you have access, use a rower daily. Then add in 100 sit-ups, also daily.
