cardio burns fat,like running,jump roping,speed walking
eat three meals a day and healthy snacks in between
you can lose 5lbs in three weeks by cutting out sugar
drinks and soda alone,water is your best friend when it
comes to losing a pouch,making you skin clear,and making it
healthy.
do anything that makes you sweat and really works you out. but add in a CORE workout like 3 times a week. when i say core i mean your core muscles, not just your abs.
also it could be your diet. try just for one month or two to eat more lean protein(like 7 servings a day) and eat less carbs(like 1 or 2 servings a day).
alright here is waht i have done eat healthy. 1 example i always put raw oatmeal on every homemade shake i do. This helps slim down alot you actually feel it. Go to the gym and run or walk until you are sweating. Beforehand do a good amount of ab workout to start with. then move to full body and then after you can run. But most importantly you have to think positive. there is always two instances of thought a negative and a positive. Instead of saying i wan’t to loose wieght, which is a negative because you are losing something, say i want to look good i want to have abs showing or nice thighs excetera, this will shape your mind and hence your physical body. Ive done this for a while and ive gone from eating 3 plates and desert at a restaurant to eating 1 healthy plate and desert. i have also gone from having insecurity and having friends who don’t seem like they are, to understanding people just by observing them and plus i’ve gotten new closer friends and a good state of mind. goodluck its easy./

Well first you need to keep in mind that where you exercise doesn’t affect where you lose weight. Meaning you can do a billion crunches and that doesn’t necessarily mean you will lose weight in your stomach, you could lose weight in your rear or breasts. Like, you could work your finger out for a week straight, and you won’t have a really skinny finger. So keep that in mind, because it is a common misconception that if you do stomach exercises you will lose weight in your stomach. But I’d start with your diet. Eat three meals a day, and snack! People often think that snacking is bad, but it is a key factor in losing weight. If you eat light snacks in-between meals you won’t be so hungry at dinner time, therefor you’ll eat less. Make sure breakfast is your biggest meal, try to have smaller dinners. You don’t want to eat much before you go to bed or else you won’t have time to burn off the calories. Try to eat healthy meals, but be sure to stick to the food pyramid. Don’t just eat veggies, protein and grains are very important to a healthy diet too. So, check out the food pyramid and try to stick to it. (That’s the tedious part!) It often means checking food labels, reading serving sizes etc. Lastly, put some exercise into it. Start out slowly, don’t exhaust yourself. Even if you just go on a 10 minute walk a day. Just try to fit some exercise into your daily routines. Maybe you drive to the coffee shop during lunch hour? If it’s close enough to walk, try walking one of these days. It is vital to take baby steps, quite often people get frustrated with a vigorous diet/exercise routine and give up on it. Take it slow, add on things as you feel fit. Don’t get discouraged either, weight loss is a long monotonous process that sometimes may feel like you’re just going in circles. You can do it! Good luck=]!
The only way to lose weight, get fit and stay healthy is the slow way – healthy diet and regular exercise. If you rush, you fail, and you have only yourself to blame. Think long-term: don’t you want to get fit and stay that way for the rest of your life?
No dieting: dieting ends, healthy diet is a lifetime of good habits. A basic healthy diet: lean meats and legumes, dark veggies, whole grains, lots of water, reduce processed carbs (soda pop is Satan!) and increase fiber. Snack on fruits and veggies instead of salt and sweets. You don’t have to count every calorie, but you should be aware of your overall intake. A healthy balance of nutrients by percent of total calories: 45% to 65% carbs, 10% to 35% protein, and 20% to 35% fat (no more than 10% saturated fat and little or no trans fat).
It’s unrealistic to say you will never treat yourself to deliciously evil food ever again. The first time you fail becomes the excuse to quit completely. Allow yourself a moderate splurge once every two or three weeks. It’s easier to be good if you know there’s a treat in your future. Avoid temptation – don’t buy it until you eat it, and never get extra.
Exercise: start easy and work your way up. Make the time 3-4 days a week – an hour walk (your dog will love you!), a stroll on the treadmill, swim, dance, whatever. NO EXCUSES – it has to become a habit. Add exercise to your day in small ways: take the stairs instead of the elevator, do isometrics at your desk, ride your bike to school instead of the bus. After a few months start challenging yourself – add leg weights, join a gym, take jazzercise, something. Keep working up from there.
Sadly, exercise doesn’t burn enough calories to lose much weight – a two-mile fast walk equals about half of a Big Mac. But exercise is irreplaceable for a healthy heart, stamina and flexibility. That means a longer and more active lifespan.
You can’t “target” weight loss to a specific area. Your body uses fat from different areas in a particular order, and it’s different for each person. Haven’t you noticed that when you lose weight it disappears first in (for example) your face, then your belly, then your thighs? And when you gain it back, it shows up in the reverse order? You can exercise the muscles in a specific area, that way they’ll be waiting to show when the fat goes away.
Each body has different needs – develop healthy habits tailored to your body and mind. Educate yourself – anatomy and physiology is the owner’s manual for your body. There are thousands of websites with nutrition and exercise information. You can tell the good ones – they aren’t selling quick diet fixes or the patented Abdominatorizerinator.
Don’t quit just because you fall off the wagon one or twelve times – everyone has weak moments. That’s no excuse! It took years to develop bad habits; it will take time to change them.
Your biggest obstacles are laziness and unrealistic expectations. Your best tools are perseverance and education.
Age, genetics and body type have much less impact on how your body looks and feels, than you may have been led to believe by traditional media, your friend’s sister’s brother in law or your family physician. Truth be told, your body is quite adaptable when treated properly “with the right program” as opposed to trying to force change on it with inappropriate, heavy weight-training and uncomfortable machine type exercise programs.
You’ll make dramatic improvements in your worst trouble spots and most stubborn problem areas if you do simple, yet carefully structured, bodyweight exercises (no weights & no machines) which combine all three types of muscle movement: Concentric, Eccentric and Isometric. This is a crucial factor for man and women that cannot be addressed with typical weight and machine type exercise programs. The only way to combine these for maximum results and SAFETY is by focusing on bodyweight type exercises. Because its basically impossible to achieve this when using weights and machines.
I am a 5.7 and 25 years old and a month ago I weigh 147lbs although about a year ago I weighed 188lbs. I am not very happy with how I look, although I have slimmed down a lot, but I still look like I’m pregnant. My stomach is flabby, my butt is big and I just feel and look disgusting. I used to run on treadmill for 15-20 mins then do some stretching for 10 min and then workout for 30-40 mins and all this 7 days a week. But I just couldn’t reach my goal. It is enough to make anyone frustrated.
A month ago a friend introduced me a workout program. I was skeptical at first that this would work by itself. Targeted weight loss is quite tough, some would say impossible, but it definitely does produce results. I have lost 20 lbs in four weeks plus 3 inches from my stomach and even my legs are much more slimmer then before. If you are wondering that this program is too good to be true then get your FREE copy of ‘The Leg, Butt, Hip and Thigh Enhancement e-Guide’ at the source below. You will not regret it! And your body will thank you for it.
You can only get a flat stomach with a sensible diet and exercise. Do weight resistance exercise to boost your metabolism and burn fat. Do high intensity cardio to burn fat.

If you are already quite skinny, then you may have weak TVA muscles. These are the muscles that hold the contents of your abdominals firmly in place. Here is an article that describes the TVA muscle in detail and also tells you a very simple exercise that you can do on a daily basis to strengthen this TVA muscle : http://correct-weight-loss.net/2009/08/31/reducing-your-waist-size/
I graduated high school at 240 pounds and at 5 foot 3 that made me about as round as I was tall. I was one of those overweight teenagers who ate anything and everything without any regard to the effects it was having on my own body. Therefore, I began the diet pills, which did not work; I ate the special diet foods and even began drinking diet beverages. None of this stuff worked for me, just as it does not work for millions of overweight people. Eating less did not work and I was not one to work out or even get up and do anything remotely related to exercise. I knew I would look silly and it would hurt. I never thought or really cared about the health effects this would have on me, back then.
A year ago after a successful weight loss plan, now at 120 pounds, it is a major difference. I’ve lost 30 pounds in the first month. The most significant change in my life is the amount of energy I now have and the way my clothes fit loosely. Everyone close to me and people I haven’t seen in a while are amazed and tell me that I look really good. This is a life changing experience for me although at first I was skeptical about the weight loss plan.
Our own metabolism system play a vital part in controlling the amount of body fat burned in the process of providing energy to the body. Knowledge about our own metabolism function is the mother to all weight loss programs.

(But taking a light exercise every few days is highly recommended). Best of all you can eat what you most enjoyed without gaining any weight The weight loss program is affordable by all and do not need to pay a monthly fees to use it. In contrast to diet pills regime where you need to buy it on a regular basis and you will gain more weight when you stop taking it.

3. Drink a MINIMUM of 8 glasses of plain water or seltzer daily.
4. Don’t weigh yourself more than once a week
5. Take starting measurements as well as weight – sometimes you’ll lose inches before pounds
6. Avoid any type of "low carb" sweetener for the first two weeks
7. Don’t compare your loss to someone else’s – this is a YMMV thing (your milage may vary)
8. Stalls are common around the third week so don’t panic
9. If you follow your plan to the T and don’t lose, consider Candida as a possibility and avoid vinegar, cheese, mushrooms and any other fermented food
10. Have bloodwork done before starting so you have a comparison
11. Cholesterol can be elevated in the first few weeks til your body adjusts – make sure your doctor knows that you’re doing low carb and when you started
