Why is the stomach the first to gain weight, and the last to lose it?

Question:

Answers:
If you are a guy then most of your fat cells are concentrated in your front abdomen section. Thats why guys get beer guts (think Homer Simpson).

Ladies on the other hand have most of their fat cells in their hips upper thighs and butt. Thats why the ladies believe everything they eat fattening goes to their hips and butt.

Other Answers:
Those muscle are the least used.

It often isn't. It depends on the person, and especially on the gender. Most women lose weight in their breasts first, likely because they are the most unnecessary use of fat on the body.

This is one of the least used parts of the body. My suggestion,more situps and crunches.

Think about the alignment of the human body. Where are most of the organs located (especially the important ones)? The lower half of the torso. The belly. Your digestive system lives there. It processes your food. The stomach area is the first place to gain weight because the fat surrounding it protects your insides. It's like bubble wrap for the organs.

The stomach area has a thick inner fat pad to protect the inner organs. When you gain weight, this fat pad gets bigger, and when you lose it gets smaller. But, this is a slow process when you lose weight because once fat cells have been created, they only shrink, not disappear! The purpose of this fat pad is a good one, protects our internal organs from injury!

Our stomack is located at the center, a bit bellow our lungs, below our stomack is our small and large intestine. The large and small intestenes is mistakenly called (by most people) as stomack the outside part of it - which is obviously seen my us is usually the first to gain wieght and the last to lose it. The said part is usally the first to gain weight and the last to lose it because it is where the food which our body would not use stay for a while. Most people eat more than what they need. Eating more than what is needed results to an additional weight in the large and small intestine. Naturally the whole body system has a way of adapting things that goes on in our body, the intestene has to adapt of the heavy weight produce by the food that are not use by the body - for the body to adapt of the heavey weight in the intestenes more fats has to be produce in it and in other organs near it which is affected by the heavy weight of the intestine (full of foods which are not use by the body) the result of the whole process is what we call or mistaken call as a big tummy. What I mentioned is just a simple and natural cause of the inlargement of what we commonly call as stomack other causes like; over indulgence of alcohol and more other are not mentioned.
