u can run but when u run twist ur body which works ur abs. and u can eat healthier, but thats hard to do so wut u can do instead is eat serving size. so when u get icecream for example look on the bucket for the nutrien on it and above that is the serving size and if i is 1 cup thats all u eat. i hope this helps. o yeah here are some other excersises: lie on ur back and keep both legs 6 inches off the ground for 30 sec. and that works ur stomach good. i hope htis helps

why won't you do crunches or situps? they're easy

To be honest, there isn't any other way. Cardio only helps to a certain extent. The rest you will have to work out...now there are other options to assist, which are: change of diet, pilates, yoga, certain fat burners.

I know you've heard this before and probably have read it in posted answers already but it's basic: proper food diet and exercise. And remember, it will take time, perseverance and patience. You didn't build the tummy overnight, right? Contrary to the sensational ads on TV, radio and the web, there is no miracle drug. It took time to add the weight and it will also take time to lose the weight. And in terms of food diet, try to stick with unprocessed foods and try to stay away from foods containing refined sugar. If you think about it, our bodies best understand how to process foods produced naturally. After switching to a low sugar, more natural foods diet, with the addition of moderate daily exercise, I was able to shed 10 pounds in the first 40 days. I know you can lose the tummy. Develop a diet and exercise routine and stick with it. Good Luck!

When I was riding horses on a regular basis I kept a rock hard stomach. Since that time I now have a jello belly.

Flatten your abs forever!

Unfortunately, the fitness world has beaten the crunch to death. Every variation of crunch torture you could ever imagine has been, and continues to be, published, yet our abs are not getting flatter! Bodybuilders often go to great extremes such as starvation diets, diuretics, laxatives and even enemas to evacuate the organs and bowels for flat abs before going on stage. Even those methods don't always get the job done!

See the source page for more.

walk a lot it helps i've lost almost ten pounds in 2 or more months.

cardio. crunches builds muscle, not burns fat.

Try running, and if you REALLY want to do abs, do it at the end of your workout, because almost everything takes work in your abs: bicept curls, tricept curls, any leg work, any gluet work, etc. do Abs laaaaasssst.

good luck, chica!

Everyone else has the right idea, Cardio is a great idea and the techniques everyone else is telling you is your choice without getting bored. You got to loose calories when working out. Running by itself or the bike or whatever you said you were doing won't work unless you are doing it for at least 1 hour. You need constant Cardio to burn what's needed.

Jogging and some aerobics will help. But, you can get a Aerobics Ball and do crunches that way. If you are having a hard time.

Look up the Abs Diet. Best thing out there. All you do is change your diet to high protein, fiber, and calcium. Alittle exercise is Best, but not a requirement just to loose a little around the waist.


jak_aroo
do pilates...they are awsome....after one time of doing it you walk around actually feeling as if you tummy is flat...

YOU CAN LOSE YOUR STOMACH BY WALKING AT LEAST THIRTY MINUTES A DAY, EATING A PORTIONED MEAL FOR BREAKFAST, LUNCH, AND DINNER. MAKE SURE YOUR GETTING ALL YOUR CALORIES NEEDED FOR THE DAY AND NOTHING MORE. YOU CAN ALSO DO PILATES AND YOGA, IT WILL HELP TREMENDOUSLY

Hypnosis. Many people think this stuff is crap, but its actually not. If you achieve 100% believe in yourself and achieve 100% concentration, you can do anything. By the way, are you reallypretty as your avatar?

you could try smart-lipo. it's a laser based liposuction and it's currently the trend in asian countries. but the key to losing tummy fat and any body fat, for that matter is to be disciplined in what you eat :)

Aerobic exercise is the most effective way to get rid of excess pounds. What you are doing now is very good. However if you have reached a plateau and aren't loosing any pounds you need to up the amount of time you excercise. Everytime you notice you hit a plateau and you still want to lose more you will have to increase the amount of excercise. Make sure you are excercising for at least 30 minutes at a time at least 3 weeks a time. Also just take a look at your general diet and try to cutout excess calories.

There is a simple morning exercise that will create dramatic improvement in your shape without a lot of work.

First thing in the morning when you get up do this one minute routine ~
Lean against a wall so your butt, shoulders and head are touching the wall. Hold your arms out in front and join your hands (thumbs up).

Raise your right leg as high as it will move easily, breath in, and do a full body isometric (tighten all muscles).
Repeat 5 times with each leg.
Thats it ... very simple. Do it every day for a month and re-measure your waist.

Why it works
This is a self enforcing of correct breathing that encourages you to have better posture and to breath properly. This gives you more energy through out the day so you are more active.

best wishes

A great way to tighten up those muscles is to simply maintain good posture and hold the muscles tight throughout the day. This works for those notorious "glutes" as well! Combine some stretching exercises with this and the next thing you know....well, it works for me! Eat healthy foods!!

Cardio/running. Doing crunches and situps dont help you lose your tummy any more than anything else. You cannot "spot" lose weight. It just doesnt work like that. When you burn calories, they come from all over your body, no matter what exercise you do. Situps and crunches will help build muscle in your stomach (that will be hidden under the fat), and will help burn some calories from all over your body, but they wont help you just lose fat in your stomach. Run 45 minutes or so a day at a decent pace, 5-6 days a week. BY decent pace, I mean a minumum of 6 miles an hour. Work up to it if you need to. Cut your calories to something like 1800 a day. The fat will start disappearing in no time. I also suggest doing some lifting, about 30 minutes work 3-4 times a week if you can, as the extra muscle you gain speeds up your metabolism and helps you keep the weight off.
