If I'm not going to lose weight nor inches, then what is the point?

Asked By:cannon_fodder in Ontario, CA

I'm 53 years old, have a 34" waist, weigh 162 lbs, am 5' 8" and have small bones. I only have any significant fat around my waist, and even that is not much (Cool Sculpting consultant said I would need 1 treatment of 2 "Lavenders"). I do exercise (walk about 20 miles a week, strength training at home using Bowflex, Select Tech dumbbells, and power tower) and generally eat well. I want to lose 2 inches around my waist but the Consultant wouldn't commit to any weight loss nor inches lost.
