Hi!  No matter how hard you work out your stomach, you can't really spot reduce that area. No matter how rock-hard your abs are, if you have body fat over top of them, you won't get to see them.  That being said, you need to change your body composition to increase muscle mass and decrease body fat. To do this, focus on strength training for your whole body combined with cardio activity and of course, eat healthy.  You won't see results over night, but every little bit helps. You can definitely search the internet for full-body strength training programs and good ab exercises.  Cardio is anything that gets your heart rate up (running, biking, etc.).  Avoid processed, greasy, junk food.  Drink lots of water.

A better question to ask is do you really need to lose 10 pounds. If you are over weight follow the advice about decreasing your calorie intake, make sure you exercise. Since you changed your question from 20 lbs to 10 lbs. I suspect that you are probably perfect just the way you are and that you are letting an incredibility distorted body image sold by the media make you feel too heavy.

this is an sensitive subject so ill try and be as gentle as possible depending on your body mass and  If you are normally sedentary and are extremely overweight seek medical attention I personally have lost an considerable amount of weight but I still have a ways to go.  Back to you I say seek help because if you are extremely overweight there are certain health risks that have to be weighed before starting any diet and exercise regimen such as general health and ability you should be able to tell if you do to much but in some cases you cant don't play games with your well-being the most important thing is to believe in yourself and to understand it takes as long to take it off as it did to get it there so try not to get discouraged I at present have hit a plateau in which my weight loss has stopped but I'm still trying never give up only you can control your own weight and it is not necessarily how much food you consume but the types and when and how often you eat I learned that by eating foods high in protein and restricted my intake of fatty foods and certain types of carbs I was able to lose my weight 120 pounds so far and counting but if you feel the need there is always bariatric surgery its a little scary to me but it still comes into my mind when i think about my other obesity related health problems Just a little something to think about hope I helped a little instead of just sounding like an babbling idiot

Why would you feel sick?  Are you cutting back your portions too much?  You can't go from one extreme to the other when trying to control your weight.  Maybe you should get some help:\n\nOvereaters Anonymous:\nhttp://www.oa.org

First of all, don't start trying to lose weight for someone else. Do it for yourself. Do it to boost your self-esteem. Do it to make yourself happy. Your mother probably rags you about it because she hates to see you ruin your health and lower your self-esteem.  Try telling her that it hurts your feelings and makes you feel worse about yourself when she treats you that way. Ask her to be an encourager to you, not to criticize and condemn you.

The goal's not to be real thin but to feel great about yourself and look healthy. Maybe you should just eat a healthy diet.

You have an obsessive thing about your weight.  Somewhere in your life your weight became very important to you and this is not unusual these days.  I have the same issue.  If I am overweight the entire world is in chaos because everything revolves around my weight.  I was obese as a child and my parents were unhappy about it.  I was teased and so I was unhappy about it.  I just want everyone to be happy so I diet and exercise constantly. I have even been anorexic twice.  So the best thing to do is figure out what the real reason is for your obsession and teach yourself that it doesn't really matter as musch as you think it does.  Good luck!  You are not alone in this!

You are attractive and will always be. That's not the real problem.\n\nYou're not horribly overweight yet, but at this rate, you will be soon. \nAddicted to food that makes you gain that much weight is something you need to talk to your doctor about. If it's not emotional, it could be medical.

Ummm, I'm just guessing but losing weight??

It sounds like you might have some sort of emotional problem and that food is your escape. Try going to counseling. \nIf this is not the case, them maybe you need a hobby since all you do is think about food. You definitely need to change your mentality about working out. \nYou try Weight Watchers you might enjoy that programs since you are allowed to eat what you want and your not deprived. \n\nGood Luck & Stay Strong.

Find a place to do it supervised. It is a lot of weight in a short time. I would see a doctor first and check what you need to look at, and get checked while loosing weight.\nYou want to stay healthy, don't you?

yes you are slightly I'm just being honest, I'm 6"2 and 154lbs and I'm underweight so we all have this problem. Just excercise for half an hour to an hour 4 times a week. Probably running or cycling is a good work out to lose a few pounds. I hope that helps you

You should not be upset about your size unless it is slowing you down in different activities that you particapate in. If your weight slows you down and affects your daily actions and routines then you should be upset. As long as you feel good about yourself and you know that your health is not in danger than continue to be the beautiful person that you say you are. Dont worry about what other people have to say about, because then you will never be able to except yourself for the way you are. People are always going to have something to say no matter if you weigh 300 pounds or 135pounds, thats why if your comfortable and your health is not at risk then keep on living!!!!!!!!!!!

First of all, you need to have confidence in yourself and love yourself for the beautiful person that you are.  If you think that you're fat and you are truly over your body mass index then may you could eat a little healthier and exercise and try to get the body that you want.  If you aren't really overweight.........then I don't really know what to tell you.  I would say to try to keep thinking positive, because beauty really is only skin deep.
