Well - this helps inspire me to try to do the same. I'll never have the 6-pack - I'm OK with that - but I've got to lose the belly. I've got what I've seen described as a Nordic body type - thick through the chest and the waist, with no dramatic v-shape that mediterranean body types get.
But yeah - not only weight loss and toning are required, I need to regain some flexibility, especially in the hips! I found out the hard way how much it hurts to try to bring my hips square while trying to work out in my karate katas.
