Trimming ZZ plant

Some stems on the ZZ plant have very thick stems (3″ in circumference), are very long, and hang low from the weight. How do you trim those stems? I hope the 3 photos display the problem areas. Thanks for your help! Sue Lewis

I recommend leaving it as is. If you must do something about it, then I would suggest repotting it into a bigger area.
