You cannot "spot" reduce.To lose the fat around your middle you need to incorporate cardio activities such as walking,running or swimming.You also have to cut your intake of calories.Our country is so caught up in low carb this and that but if you eat too much and don't move you will get fat!!It takes 30-45 minutes of cardio 4-5 days a week for effective weight loss.Try to lift weights 2-3 days a week also.This is the simplest way,eat 250 calories less a day AND burn 250 calories more a day to lose 1 pound a week.3500 calorie deficit=1 pound.You will burn about 100 calories a mile whether you walk or run it!!The only reason running burns more,is that we cover more miles in a shorter period of time!You may want to go to ediets.com and get on their diet program,one of the best on the web!

Cardio is the only way to burn fat around your mid section. You should go onto an elliptical machine, tredmill, or bike for about 30 minutes a day. Only do crunches after, or you could bulk up even more. Also, eat more protien, and less carbs. That will really help.

Technically you are loosing WEIGHT but its just water. Your not loosing fat sadly =(    (damn! why cant it be that simple! =P) \n\nif you want to loose belly fat you should do about 30-60min of cardio 3-5x a week to slim your whole body; because you cant target spot an area (sorry! T.T) because even if you did a billion crunches and sit ups a day; the fat currently on your stomach would be hiding your 6-pack. \n\nI would also suggest doing crunches and sit-ups tho. So when you do loose your stomach fat your pack would be showing ^_~ hehe\n\nhope to help

I used to be really BIG in that area, from 30 inches, i'm now 25-26.I combine logical diet & exercise. Logical means eating a balance diet, less on the fatty & carbo-rich foods but not removing them. In my experience, the ONLY two exercises that guarantee a trim waist-hip area are the DOUBLE ABDOMINAL CRUNCH and the half or low bicycle in the air, w/ some calisthenics to burn calories. But the real key here is DISCIPLINE. You have to be determined. Unfortunately, there are no short cuts unless you have the money to go under the knife or get a lipo. But even if you do have the money, i won't advise anyone to do that still because the benfits of a healthy diet and exercise are way beyond having a small waist-hip. It provides you w/ a healthy outlook in life, slows the aging process, etc., etc., etc.... I have been reading books, magazines and what-have-yous... Believe me... my advise works. Try BELLY-dancing if you find the crunches hard at times... but always do crunches. Check out health magazines or experts on the proper way of doing so... Remember have fun! And be PATIENT. You will see results after two or three months. It may not be significant but it's a good motivation for you. Ciao...

any aerobic exercise like running will help you lose the weight, then do sit ups and crunches to help you tone your belly. also, try to cut back on the food that is high in fat and carbs, and try to drink water more instead of other drinks high in sugar.

** EXERCISE- concentrate more on the body part where you really want to lose fats. like if you want to lose fats on your tummy, try belly dancing,,in your arms, try push up's\n\n** EAT THE RIGHT KIND OF FOOD- you blowing up might be because of the food you eat is too much in sugar or too much salt. remember too much of something for your body is not good.just,,be sure that what your eat reaches the total amount of calories you should intake for your weight and height.\n\n** FEEL BEAUTIFUL!- this is a must!!! because to be beautiful,,you have to FEEL beautiful!\n\nGood Luck!

I have had love handles for such a long time...I thought about just giving up...But SLOWLY and surely, they are going away. To get rid of the excess fat on your tummy, cardio and more cardio is needed, in addition to cutting-back (for a slower results), cutting-out(for quicker results) sugars and foods high in saturated fats...\nEat protein, and do sit-ups and bicycles for the stomach muscle... Seriously---Good luck...Much discipline and determination

If  you have a fat stomach, the only way you can reduce your fat is by doing aerobic exercises. Losing fat around the stomach takes time. If aerobic exercises are done regularly over a period of  time, you will gradually lose weight. More details at http://www.toloseweight.org/losestomachfat.html

It is going to take a long time for you to lose that pooch. \n\nYou will have to be very dedicated to various stomach exercises but there is no guarantee that your skin will  tighten back up. Your abs may get really toned but if the skin stays loose then you will always have the gut.\n\nOh and those nasty stretch marks......you own those for life....

There's no exercises which would allow you to lose fat in any specific area (like your abdominal area). When you burn fat, the fat loss is spread throughout your body. Doing tons of crunches would only help to strengthen your abdominal muscles, but what you want to do is reduce the layer of fat that covers your abs (crunches/situps are a VERY ineffective way of reducing fat).\n\nTo get a flatter stomach, the most important things are to watch what you eat (total # of calories as well as the amount of fat) and doing cardio, such as running or swimming. Cut out junk food such as soda, chips, fast food, etc.. and set a regular schedule for yourself to go for a run maybe 2-3 times a week (more if you'd like) and you'll be on your way to a thinner waistline.

I have found that the most effective ways to get rid of love handles is to do 2 different ab workouts. The first is the alternating bicycle crunches where you lay flat and touch your elbows simultaneously to the opposite knees, and also to do the hanging bar crunches, where you hold yourself up on like a dip bar and just bring your legs up. You have to use your abs to both stabilize your body in that position and to lift your legs up. Bring your knees up together and up as high as possible. Also, breath in and out during reps so that you get as much oxygen to your muscles as possible, and make sure to start drinking water 30 minutes before the workout.

Work out and concentrate on your mid section and lift weights and increase protein consumption some.  When I had my children the OB doc gave me literature about loosing the belly flab and I used it and had flatter stomach than before kids.  Call yours and see if they have some.  Leg lifts seemed especially helpful for me while tucking my butt muscles.  But seriously check with MD that delivered your last baby for exercises.  I'll bet they would mail them to you.
