Do a tun of crunches. If you have like 30% plus body fat The fastest way to lose weight is to elevate your heart rate as many times and and as high as you can safely elevate it. Eat small portions of meals many times a day instead of really big portions only a few times a day. Jump rope rules. Anything running or sprinting will burn a super amount of calories, incomparable to weight lost just dieting.\n\nhttp://www.jimmyr.com/lose_weight.php

Do you need to lose weight?  That's the important question.  If you really are overweight this is what you should do:\n\nYou have to choose a heatlthy lifestyle.  Eat right, eat moderately.  Incorporate fruits and veggies and cut out the junk.  Exercise consistently, not just sporadically--a combination of cardio and strength-training would be best.  NEVER take diet pills, they are 100% not good for you.\n\nGood luck. :-)

I have no idea *how* much weight you need to lose, but just some general pointers:\n\n1. Weight training. Most people think the side-effect of lifting is getting big. No. Lifting develops muscle. Developing muscle burns more calories. If you want to get big, you add calories to your diet. If you want to lose weight, you don't. \n\nMost people also do cardio at one pace and wonder why they get no results. Simple. No intensity. You will get more results from five minutes of running as fast as you possibly can than a half-hour at a leisurely pace. Add short, intense weight training to intense interval cardio and you have two different exercise groups that will assist you in losing weight.\n\n2. Numerous meals. 6-8 low-calorie meals a day. 200 cal x 6 + 300 cal x 2 = 1800 calories, probably enough. I know you won't want to eat all this, so you're allowed to drink a few of these (don't overdo it - a full cup of juice is about 200 calories. I like the V8 smoothies because they have protein in them, too).\n\n3. Don't max out on water. Drink water regularly throughout the day but DO NOT use it as a meal replacement. While there's no calories in water, your body is mostly water. Excess water can easily leave your body with the same "bulky" look that fat does.\n\nAnd remember, small steps. Take it day to day. You're looking for progress - not perfection (that will just stress you out and have you packing pounds back on). Good luck.

First, you can't target weight loss in one area. Second, you really shouldn't be losing weight. You can do some light weights and that  should help you keep your legs toned as you lose muscle in your legs from Karate.

The single most important factor you can change is your diet.  Losing weight is all about consuming less calories than you use, and diet is where you have the most control in this.  The reality is that exercise doesn't burn as much calories as you would think, and eating improperly can easily counter any activity you are doing.\n\n  When it comes to dieting you'll probably find 1000 different diets with a 1000 different variations.  Personally, I prefer a diet low in carbs, high in protein, and with a moderate amount of fat.  To achieve this I stay away from sugars and starches.  I eat plenty of meat, fruits, and vegetables.  Do what works for you, though.  You should also make sure you don't under eat.  If you do you'll slow down your metabolism and impede results.  Try eating 4-6 small meals a day, 1 every 3 hours or so, to keep your metabolism working.\n\n  Although diet is more important, it's still works better when combined with exercise.  Exercise will help you in two main ways.  For one, it will help you to keep your metabolism high.  It will also help you preserve lean body mass, or even build more, while dieting.  Without exercise diet alone can cause a loss of muscle.

concentrate on jogging and swimming first, to cut pounds without building too much muscle on top of fat. back in the day, when my friend started playing football, he didn't lose weight before he started his heavy workouts, and while he's not fat anymore, he's extremely thick.\n\ndrink lots of water, cut out red meats, take plenty of vitamins.\n\nfor your breathing problems and side pains while jogging, you might try yoga...it helped me out alot...\n\nafter you see yourself losing a significant amount of weight, begin working out with weights...\n\nbe careful not to lose too much weight too fast, i believe the recommended amount is 2 lbs per week. and be careful to keep your weight at a decent level for your body frame. if you have large bones and get too skinny, you may end up looking like a bobble head.\n\ni think at e-diets.com you can get a recommended diet for your lifestyle.\n\nit may be worth trying...good luck.

Eat right and exercise. Alot of cardio if you want to lose water weight or excess flab...ex: running, yoga, pilates. And then after you've lost the weight you want then get firm, built muscle, get toned...ex: kick boxing, yoga, weights.

Exercise, diet and workout. Get under 15% body fat and do situps everyday\nThe best way to lose weight is simply to elevate your heart rate at least 30 minutes a day. You dont even have to exercise for a long time. You dont have to job, jump, or do stairs. Just do anything that raises your heart rate pretty high for a few minutes, and your heart will continue to pump fast and burn calories. Instead of eating a few big meals a day, eat many small meals.\nMake realistic goals like 5 pounds a month and stick to a routine. Have confidence in yourself and dont obsess by looking in the mirror everyday. It will happen, just have patience :)\nI made a site to check BMI and calories burned per day. It's not all that great but I spent a lot of time adding quality links to the further links section.\nhttp://www.jimmyr.com/lose_weight.php

i guarantee you it is muscle...muscle is heavier than fat for one.  It also depends on what type of exercises u do.  Brisk walking is the best way to lose weight for one.  But u really dont seem to have a weight problem.  A person of your height and weight doesnt really seem to be bad.  \n\nCut out too many carbohydrates...eat more salad vegetables, fish and lean meat.  Dont drink alcohol and if u like softdrink drink diet ones.  And if u like snacks try to find lighter or less fat options.\n\nHope that helps

1. A safe level and effective level of weight loss that is about 1-2 pounds per week.. More than that could be unhealthy is is usually not lasting. Look to make lasting changes in your diet and lifestyle, then you will keep the weight off.  \n2. The only way to lose weight is to take in fewer calories that you burn. There is no secret to it. You can do this by dieting to lower your calorie intake, exercise to increase it, or a combination of both. Depending on your current activity level, even adding some walking into the schedule can help.\n3.  Muscle weighs more than fat but is more compact.  Adding muscle may make you look slimmer, and the muscle burns more calories at rest than fat so it can keep you slimmer.\n4. There are many effective diet programs that you can follow on your own or join. These programs do a few things: they can help educate you on proper nutrition; they help you control portions and calorie intake; and, they usually require you to keep a record of your eating behavior. Find one that is comfortable for you if you think it will help, or do it on your own.\n5. Writing down everything you eat over a few days can be very helpful in terms of identifying your problem areas.\n6 There are some helpul resources available from the US Government, including suggested diet and a calorie tracker that allows you to evaluate your food intake for calories and nutrients, and compare it to the calories that you burn through daily activities. I have some articles on my website as well. Links are shown below. \nGood luck!
