If you are unsure about how to start exercising, I would get some help. Hire a personal trainer or go to a gym that offer personal training. They will be able to put you on an exercise program that will suit your needs and physical ability. I go to a women's only gym and I find that they are better for women who are not gym junkies or wearing lycra leggings and skimpy singlet tops to the gym. It's really relaxed and you're able to feel yourself. My gym also offers a class called "light start" which is a class aimed at easing people like yourself back into exercise.\nYes, it is money you have to spend, but it will be worth it to get yourself into a habit of exercise. Good luck and be committed. It will be hard to begin with, but it will be worth it!

You have to do cardio to burn belly fat.  Just lifting weights and doing sit ups wont cut it.  Cardio, cardio, cardio!  Everytime you do cardio be sure to throw some stomach crunches in there too.  you should see results in about a month.

Decrease calories, increase exercise.\nMake sure you're eating healthy food. Limit your proteins to lean meats, egg whites, beans, nuts and whole grains.\nCarbs should be all from whole grain sources as well. No refined (white) sugar and flour. \nDrink WATER, tea, and fresh juice (not the stuff that's been on the shelf for a year). No soda.\nEat plenty of fruits and veggies (shoot for about 2-3 fruits and 3-5 veggie servings a day).\nLimit dairy to low/non-fat yogurt and milk, or better yet, cut it out altogether and get your calcium from soy, rice, almond, or oat milks.\nTry to exercise for at least 30-60 mins a day. Cardio is good for fat loss. Run if you can, power walk if you cant.

Walking and drinking lots of water are probably the best and easiest ways. And try your best not to eat after 6pm. If you go to bed with calories on you then you have no way to work it off and it turns to fat.

Eat a healthy, balanced diet.  In addition, increase your low fat dairy products.  Dairy helps your body burn that stubborn belly fat. Get alot of exercise, specifically targeting the stubborn area.  Crunches, etc.  Good Luck!

Spot reduction does not work.  You need to lose fat in order for your stomache to be flatter.  Keep doing your ab exercises, but also do cardio like walking, running, aerobics, etc.  Don't forget about a healthy diet.

To lose belly fat, you must do some 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

lower your fat ratio, by eliminating all sugar and refined or processed foods such as white bread, crackers, pizza, cakes, donuts, muffins, cookies etc.\ninstead, eat fruit and steamed veggies and eggs and cheese (in moderation) and lean cuts of meat.\n\nA sample diet is \nmuelsi or oatmeal\nskim or soy milk\nberries\ncoffee or tea \norange juice\n\napple\nslice cheddar cheese\nhandful of walnuts\n\nsalad of baby spinich, \n2 boiled eggs\nyoghurt low cal dressing\nparmesan cheese\n\nbroiled salmon or chicken\nsteamed broccoli and sweet potato\n\nherbal tea\n\n\nThis type of eating combined with lots of water, good sleep habits, at least 1/2 hour of aerobic activity per day (where you break in to a sweat) is the way to get rid of the last 10 pounds of fat, regardless of where it is on your body, or whether you are a man or a woman.\n\nIt should only take about 2 weeks to see a difference, and in a month or so it will be gone

I was in that category when I was your age also, but then I start playing soccer a lot and doing a lot of outdoor fun. Going hiking, bike riding, and anything to stay outside. Now I work in front of a desk and I'm back to 25 BMI. So now I have to eat right and try to get out as much as possible. I eat a lot of fruit and fiber. I'm vegetarian so I take a few vitamin supplements that I would normally easily get from meat (B-12, Iron, etc...). But that's all it really takes. If you want to get down to a 15 or 16 BMI then you'll have to work out. Crunches are alright, as listed above, but will also make you look a little fatter then you really are. It will make you muscles bigger and doesn't burn enough fat to compensate. Do a few leg exercises in the morning with some pushups. Do a few torso twist with a small amount of weight. The less the weight the more you should do, but remember, if you increase the weight you'll gain more muscle mass. I don't think that is what you want. Do a lot of aerobics. Walking is amazing, low impact and great for burning fat. Good luck with your endeavor.

simply just start exercising more. i'd say exercise 3 to 4 days a week and around an hour each time. then, start throwing away the junk food and bring in some fruits, veggies, and grains. by combining these into a balanced diet then you'll lose  your baby fat.

Working out will firm the stomach muscles, but it won't remove the layer of fat over them.\n\nYou need to combine a good diet.  Several Kimkins members have medical conditions including back problems, fibromyalgia or diabetes and find the diet works extremely well for them.\n\nAt a minimum, watch your carbs, skip junk, skip alcohol.

Diets are okay and everything, but they can decrease your metabolism, causing your body to conserve fat. What you really need is some long, slow aerobic exercise. Go for at least 12-15 minutes or more per day of walking, jogging, running, cycling, or some other kind of exercise such as these, and don't stop doing this once you get rid of the weight you want to get rid of. Another thing to keep in mind is that weight really isn’t the problem; fat is the problem. Weight and fat are NOT the same thing. Muscle actually weighs almost 7 times as much as fat. So don’t pay too much attention to your weight; instead pay attention to how thin you look and how good you feel.

There is no such thing as "spot reduction" (ie: losing belly fat). There is no machine, exercise, diet, or magic pill that will remove the fat from just your belly area. Fat will come off from your entire body. Your midsection will be the last place you notice it coming off, but it is. You just don't see it right away because it is larger than other areas of your body.\n\nTo lose the fat from your whole body, you need to eat less, eat healthy, and exercise more. Cut back on the calories, and make most of those calories come from proteins and good carbs. Cut back on the refined sugars and fatty foods, especially trans-fat. For exercise, you don't need a magic machine. Get out and go for a walk. There are a lot of different videos you can buy and exercise in front of your TV. You can buy a set of dumbbells and a bench and do some strength training at home. Or get a gym membership and exercise there.

cut out your fatty foods and walk a lot. walking is the best..when you get what you want from walking then you can do other exercises like in the gym. good luck..but your food is the major issue.
