Anyone ever get a Dexa scan? Who did you use? Was it useful? Got curious as my trainer is getting one done as he's doing a bulk right now.

I fell for that that I believed if I slimmed down I could look kinda cut but totally not happening. I’ve dropped the 10# I wanted to and really have nothing left to lose after about 6 months of basically not drinking and eating well/cardio. But nothing short of focused muscle building in the spot will give the results I (and assume you) want.

I don't recall myself having this lower belly fat when I was in shape at 150 pounds when I was in my 20s... | Lower ab fat is normal in your 30s and 40s, we all accumulate fat over time, which is normal.
The only way to mitigate that is to drop more weight, but even then, you may never be as "lean" as you were in your early 20s, hormonal changes take a big part in that.
You can definitely work on your lower abs to tone that area, and correct posture so that your hips don't "push" out the stomach, giving that bloated look to the lower stomach. T2Bs (toes to bars) and static holds/hollow body holds are great to force correct your core, bringing that lower back more flat, and therefore pulling that stomach in, giving a better look.

When I first started working out when I was overweight, I gained 15lbs before my weight started to drop. I went from 185lbs to 200lbs before sliding back down to 180 over a year. I also cut my carbs hard during that time though.

I've never checked the Ironwood location (or the Steveston location for that matter), but my guess is they don't do the burgers there. Would be cool if they did so I wouldn't have to specifically go to Poco for it lol.

PoCo + North Van (Park and Tllford)
I guess Ironwood doesn't.

Ironwood just has their regular deli/bakery there. Spent enough time in there while kids were in swim lessons nearby.

If anyone is up for a burger or happy hour meet at the PoCo Sunwood Save On Foods, we can meet there just like we did last time for the Geriatric Motoring Club meet. This will be good for those of you who cannot make it out to the Stock & Noob Meet on Thursday, September 25 (but why not come to both?) 
Edit: I should not be posting this in the weight loss thread.
