With fat foods, the fat cells run out of space and then get stored within muscle linings.


They are mainly present in the waist, hips and chest area and when there is no more space in the cells, it starts accumulating in the muscle linings leading to a flab.
Losing this additional fat from the problem areas are one of the biggest concerns for many of us. We have established this already. Now what do we do about it?
