Sorry- can't predict: That wany certainty. Spot fat loss does not occur naturally. By losing weight in general some will probably be in areas that you desire. But, we don't get to choose what area of body fat is lost from. Eat healthy ; be physically active. Calories burned must > those consumed. Engage in regular aerobic exercise (i.e., running, swimming, nordic track, bicycling, kickboxing, walking, cross country.
