What is the best way to work on flabby arms? I'm down 60 pounds and love it but I feel like my arms look so bad. I am just not sure the way to work on them.

I prefer free weights or resistance bands.  You have to work the whole arm:  shoulder, tricep, bicep and forearm. 

Muscular arms look much better and you'll notice the flab less.  There are lots of good workouts to be found on the internet.  I use P90X for total body workout and running.

Free weights and push-ups. My arm flab is actually decreasing over time, even as I lose, and I saw the biggest change after I started with the free weights 3+ times a week.

I do push-ups off the stairs too. I need to be careful with those, though, because of a nerve injury in my back.

Simple curls for the bicep, with the elbow supported. Small circles with a lighter weight with the arms extended out straight to the side for the shoulder muscles.

This lady is doing the triceps the way I was taught, except I do them one side at a time, and support myself on a piece of furniture with the free hand. You will feel it the next day!

Good luck, you should see a difference in about a month...

My advice is to start saving for plastics as you work out.  I love my new arms!!
