Just got back into swimming and joined a team. What are some different ways to get rid of body fat in the chest/stomach/thigh region? I don't necessarily want to build more muscle just trim down.
Im 23 and only 5'2 so in my opinion I should be fairly tiny but I'm still in a 30/32 suit and a 38 chest. Is it too far fetched to think I should be a 26/28 suit and a 34/36 chest, is that even possible? Thanks guys

I stopped eating wheat last September.
Oh you gone done it!
I noticed the difference within the first two weeks. My weight itself did not decrease dramatically—I lost maybe 5 pounds—but my abdomen became more "muscular" (still, unfortunately, a one pack).
Same, while I'm still at the high end, and didn't just cut out wheat, but all grains for comfort reasons (grains wreck me, ranging from bringing out my asthma to internal issues and dermatitis)

This right here is a great site, but it's not the only one out there. His thing is all about "going primal" which is basically tapering carbs to 's also primarily an insulin management style of eating, staying low on the GI scale. Since starting this I've cut about 90% of all grains and legumes out and feeling a lot better, better muscle definition - which means less fat, even though my weight has only moved about 2# in a month.
It's not the only way, it bucks "conventional wisdom", my ex-nutritionist hates it (so I fired her), and I think it works well for me. Basically though, reduce insulin load, and reduce stored carbs and you'll lose fat. (Clif's notes right there.)
You could always crosstrain.
