Walk or run outside several times a week, it's free. Try going up and down a few flights of steps each time too. Crunches or situps on the days you don't run--- it'll help flatten your tummy.  Pushups to tone your arms.  Or.... pop in a great CD or organize your favorite MP3s into a collection that has some peppy songs you can dance to and make up your own aerobics routing.  All kinds of thins to do, the hardest part is getting motivated to do it!! Good luck!

Try taking ginger caplets before you trave. They help with nausea from motion sickness as well as pregnancy. Also, take those red and white striped peppermints along and suck on those. The peppermint calms your stomach. Sit near the front of the bus and open a window.

hmmmm good one, ok those love handles, right on the lower part of your back near the sacrial area are the most difficult to get rid of, why because there is no real exercise to target them.   \nBut you could do back exercises to strengthen your lower back muscles which in turn-cause they are generally connected tone up those a bit to. \n2 sit ups but the ones where you twist, ex: on back sit up and touch left elbow to right knee.  Also some yoga asanas would help target those problems like cobra and locust---but you don't want to strain your back so make sure you are doing them right----find a teacher in your area---or Pilates. If you do cardio you tend to lose a little bit everywhere.. Lipo is the only last resort I could think of.

no matter how much exercise and dieting you do you will not achieve a flat stomach unless you also have a high calcium intake. Drink lots of skim milk or take a calcium pill with vitamin D. (Vitamin D helps your body absorb the calcium)

I think it's pretty much to do with your food that you eat. Try not eat too much of meat, spicy or oily grilled stuff. Your stomach will be dump with too much rubbish. Eat somehing more moderate... like vegetables, wheat, soy bean...and drink more water. Water is very important to our body system. By the way...you should get started to exercise more if don't because it does help to get us healthy when you sweat.

Unfortunately you cant just lose fat from your abdomen and nowhere else. This is a myth called 'spot reduction'. \nJust doing abdominal exercises will not get you a flat toned stomach or sixpack, a combination of cardio, resistance exercises and a healthy diet will, but this will apply to the whole of your body and ultimetly comes down to percentage body fat and calorie expenditure.

Lie on your back and relax completely so that your ab muscles are slack.  You can gently massage the abdonmen area and the gas bubble will move down the intestine until you fart.

How to get a flat stomach - Ok firstly the idea of localised fat loss is a myth - during exercise fat is burned as fuel from all areas of the body and while working your abdominal muscles will help them to develop, but if there is a layer of fat obscuring these new muscles neither you or anyone else will be able to see them. Therefore to achieve your goa,l any abdominal exercise needs to be combined with a well balanced and nutritious diet to see the fruits of your labour. In addition cardiovascular exercise will speed up this process and help to burn extra fat.\n\nBy far the best exercise to build abdominal muscle and toning the abdominal wall is the crunch - this is actually the main stomach exercise performed by athletes and models.\n\nThe Crunch\n• Lie on you back.\n• Place your feet on the floor as close to your bottom as possible and place your knees together.\n• Rest your hands across you chest and relax the neck.\n• Slowly raise your shoulders off the floor by contracting only the abdominal muscles.\n• Don't come up too high - your lower back should always remain on the floor.\n• Hold that position for a count of 1 and breath out forcefully.\n• Slowly relax the stomach muscles and allow your shoulders to return to the floor.\n• Repeat 10 - 12 times, rest for 60 seconds then repeat.\n\nThe amount of crunches you can do, as with all exercises, varies from person to person... its safest to start off with a relatively low number as to avoid strain and build up to more over time.\n\nFurther Exercises \nThe Plank\n• Lie flat on your stomach.\n• Place your hands at either side of your chest - as if ready to perform a press up - although your should tuck your elbows into your sides.\n• Keeping your back perfectly flat, push yourself up onto your knees - so that your upper body is off the floor, with your hands and knees acting as support.\n• Keeping your back flat, pull in your tummy button as high as possible - as if to suck it in close to the spine.\n• Aim to maintain a normal breathing pattern and hold this position for 10 - 60 seconds.\n• Rest, lie flat then repeat twice.\n\nToe Touch\n• Lie on you back.\n• Raise your arms and legs so they are perpendicular with your body.\n• Slowly curl your torso up and forward, raising your hands as close to your toes as possible\n• Contract your abs and then reverse direction, returning to the starting position.\n• Repeat 10 - 12 times, rest for 60 seconds then repeat.\n\nReverse Curl\n• Lie on you back.\n• Place your hands at sides and bend your knees.\nraise your butt as high as possible while keeping your upper back pressed to the floor.\n• Contract your abdominals and then reverse direction, returning to the starting position. \n• Repeat 10 - 12 times, rest for 60 seconds then repeat.\n\nTwisting Crunch \n• Lie on you back.\n• Bend your knees so your thighs are perpendicular to the ground and fold arms across your chest.\n• Slowly raise your shoulders up and forward toward your chest, twisting your body to the right.\n• Feel a contraction in your abdominal muscles and then slowly reverse direction, returning to the start position.\n• Repeat movement but this time twist to the left.\n• Repeat 10 - 12 times, rest for 60 seconds then repeat.\n\n \n   Home \n\n--------------------------------------------------------------------------------\n \n The Truth About Weight Loss \n\n--------------------------------------------------------------------------------\n \n The Truth About Exercise \n\n--------------------------------------------------------------------------------\n \n Great Workouts \n\n--------------------------------------------------------------------------------\n \n Exercising With Kids \n\n--------------------------------------------------------------------------------\n \n Fitness Myths \n\n--------------------------------------------------------------------------------\n \n The Low Carb Diet Dilemma \n\n--------

It depends on whether it actually is belly fat, or untrained abdominal muscles.  The former can be helped with good diet and some loss of weight, the latter crunches will solve.  Of course, both of these work only in time.  What you also have to account for is the fact that abdominal muscles are not necessarily supposed to be 'pancake flat' yet we as a society seem to be completely obsessed with it..deeming anything but that as inadequate.  Don't fall into this trap, you may naturally have a slight curve to your belly which you are unable to get rid of. \n\nSo, yes, belly fat will stay there no matter how much you do crunches..if that is all you are doing.  Make it a part of a total exercise program that increases your heart rate  and it might help reduce it over time. Your best bet though is to eat a healthy diet with fruits and vegetables in which you consume the right amount of calories and fat each day. These should help you with the problem.

Pilates is an excellent way to flatten your stomach, strengthen your core muscles and feel more energized.\n\nA healthy, whole-food diet (lots of fruits and veggies, much less fats and processed foods) is also a good way to reshape your body.\n\nBe sure to drink at least 64 oz of water a day.

You need to hit the gym babe and you gotta go on daily jogs. Do 100 to 200 situps each night. You should see results. Oh, and it may sound prissy, but Pilates really work too! My stomach got flatter and I formed some abs in about a month of all that and eating right. You're doing great with the eating(make sure your portion size isn't too big). You're half way there!

You actually can't make your stomach thin with JUST sit ups.  Sit ups (and other stomach-focusing exercises) will help build MUSCLE in the stomach (abs) area, which can help, but to actually make the bulge disappear you'll have to ALSO do some type of cardio.  And, watch what you eat.  You can't expect to lose the tummy and not make some changes in your diet as well.  My advice, have a cardio regimine, AND do the situps.  And don't get frustrated if you don't see results right away... there is no magic thing out there that will make it all happen in a week.  Keep at it, and you may be surprised with what you see in a few months, and if you keep it up, your tummy will be sexy as any pop stars.  Oh, but you should probably talk to a doctor before you start any kind of exercise routine.  It's always a good idea.  Good luck!
