Fat Burning: Does Diet & Exercise Target Specific Areas?

Question
hello I was wondering if you are on a low total fat diet and did exercises like crunches or weight lifting if you burnt the fat around your abs or chest before the food that is in you stomach. Thank you

Answer
Hi Charlie,
The food in your stomach is always digested and processed before the fat that is around your organs and under your skin.   However, that doesn't mean you shouldn't eat anything in order to burn the fat under your skin!!!!  On the contrary!!!  You need food to give you the energy to work out.   Keep doing your exercises regularly (daily), and the fat will slowly burn off!
