Boy, I wish that worked, I'd be skinny!!  Unfortunately when watching a horror movie I also am more inclined to snack - can't watch a scary movie without popcorn!!! - so that probably defeats any cardio work-out I might be getting.  Damn.

Why don't you try doing squats or roller blading to tone up your bottom half?  Also, it could be that your butt and thighs are hereditary, so there may not be much you can do about it except tone them up.  I used to think I had the same problem but I came to grips with the fact that I was just built this way, so why stress?

Whether you like him or not, you have to respect Dr Phil just because of one thing.\n\nHe continually asks his guests’ one simple question: "How's it working for you?"\n\nSuccess in anything comes from FINDING WHAT WORKS then DOING WHAT WORKS.\n\nI am going to reveal to you the Secret Weight Loss Formula that Celebrity personal trainer don't want you to know about.\n\nBefore I reveal the secret, first I need to explain to you that there is process that your body goes through to burn body fat. \n\nSo how does your body burn fat?\n\nIt is a two steps process and in order to lose body fat you need to:\n\n1.Release the fat from the fat cells and only then\n2.You can burn the fat\n\nHow does your body release the fat from the cells?\n\nBefore you can turn your body into a fat burning machine, here what needs to happen: your body fat need to be released from the fat cells. You can accomplish this step successfully with your nutrition program. Here are some specific tips that you can apply right away to achieve that.\n\n1.Eat 4-6 small, frequent meals and never skip meals.\n2.Eat natural foods; avoid processed & refined foods\n3.Eat lean proteins with each meal.\n4.Eat more complex carbs, fruits & vegetables.\n5.Drink plenty of water\n\n\nHow does your body burn the fat? \n\nIf you started exercising and then reached a plateau, you have probably burned more muscle tissue than fat with your workout. This is the worst thing that could happen.\n\nLet me explain. \n\nLess Muscle = slower metabolism = Weight loss plateau\nThen you end up in the yo-yo dieting bandwagon.\n\nHow to burn the *fat* instead of burning muscles.\n\nYou need to do some MODERATE cardio training. The key word here is moderate. \nDoing too much cardio can be detrimental and I am sure you have seen those people that are doing cardio on a daily basis and still not getting anywhere. The result is a low metabolism. Low metabolism means, your body fat is not going anywhere, anytime \nsoon. Here is what you need to do:\n\n1.Do some moderate cardio training; the key word here is moderate\n2.Never diet but consume little fewer calories that you will burn (No starvation diets, Please...)\n\nYour muscle tissue is your best friend when it comes to burn body fat. You need to preserve muscle tissues in order to keep losing weight. Most people go on a starvation diet combined a lot of cardio to lose weight. At first it may seems like this is working because they are losing scale weight. \n\nNow think about, scale weight does not tell you if weight loss is from fat, water or muscle tissue. Scale weight by itself is not a good indicator of success.\n\nTo maintain muscle tissues you need to:\n1.Do some resistance training. (This is not optional, it is mandatory)\n\n\nThe secret\n\nNow that you understand the whole fat burning process, I am going to reveal to you how celebrity personal trainers do to get those amazing transformations. The strategy is to combine all the steps that I outlined so the body works as a unit.  First, the trainer makes sure that his client is eating the proper food on a regular basis. \n\nBy that, I mean eating so that fat WILL be released from the fat cells. Then and only then they exercise the body to burn the fat. The important idea to take from this is:\n\n"The fat can ONLY be burned after it is released from the fat cells".\n\nIf you know anybody that has been exercising like a maniac and they don't seem to go anywhere, now you know why.\n\nThe reverse is also true, do you know somebody that is eating properly but they are not including any resistance training combined with moderate cardio. Now you know why their body still looks the same.\n\nAll you need to do is to combine a nutrition program, along with some MODERATE cardio program and maintain muscle mass with resistance training. Everything is combined with one goal in mind: Turning your body into an Automatic fat burning machine. It is that easy.\n\nThere is a fina

I have the same problem. I will try like heck not to use a public bathroom. Now sometimes when I got to go, huh...I got to go. It's funny cause I will not sit my butt on the toilet what so ever. I will go to the handicap stall and hold on to the rails. My butt never touches the toilet seat. Who knows whats been on that seat.

if you want a smaller butt\nyou must \n1) do cardio--somethin that elevates the heart rate such as running, bicycling, elliptical, jumprope, etc steadily for 30 minutes 4-5 times a week\n\n2) lift LIGHT weights--do light squats--like 3 sets of 15 with rest in between\nthis will tone your butt making it more compact--and the cardio will burn off excess fat \n\nin combination with a healthy diet, you will have a very toned butt--small and firm

If you are confident in your body, why do you still want to lose your butt?  Women are infamous for finding things about theselves that they don't like, and it's mostly our own perceptions that give us grief.  If teh people around you who care about you are telling that you have no butt, maybe you should listen to them.  \nThere really isn't anyway to lose fat in just one area of teh body, but you can increase muscle tone, which would make your butt look firmer, if nothing else.  I've found that anything that works your hip flexors (lunges, stair climb) works your butt too.  Squats tone a lot too.  \nI really think that you should reconsider trying to "lose your butt", but good luck if you still feel like you need to try.  \nI'm not a marketing person or anything, but the April 2006 issue of Oprah magazine has a lot of really great articles about beauty and how women percieve themsleves. I highly recommend taking a look at it.

It takes time but it works, along with watching what you eat. exercise works, keep trying and you will get there.

I have the same problem.  A friend of mine (who had 3 kids) told me 1) Diet, 2) Cardio and 3) Ab workout.  So I am upping my protein, lowering my carbs, upping my cardio, and I do crunches and leg lifts.  I also try to hold in my tummy when working out.  It is starting to work, but it takes time.

Understood that you are still under 18!\nYour body is not formatted yet...there is a big chance to get the butt you want...if you excercise regularly and eating normally.The important is to excercise!Give your body some time...it will develop on it's own. ;)

My only suggestion is running or walking. General exercise should slim you down. But a lot of men are known to like more curvy women.

I train people professionally and would suggest:\nCount your total calories and try to scale it back (try reducing your portions)\nIncrease your physical activity (walk or jog 3 days a week).\n\nIf you need further help, email me at suheaven@aol.com\n\nGood luck\nMike

What works for me is exercise everyday ... a long walk does wonders.  I don't mean intense exercise, just something that gets you up and moving for an hour or so at a time.

this is a one day weight loss exercise,\nfirst go to the bathroom, spit alot from morning to night, run alot that day. then before you go to bed ull be at least 5 pounds lighter. check before you eat dinner not after.\nIf you want a long time answer then spend an hour every 2 days at a local gym and do alot of cardio and stomach exercises.\nBy the way there is no problem with TV models at least they are not using overweight ppl to walk down the carpet... I dont see any problem with women looking good.
