I eat good, I don't drink soda. I drink Unsweet Ice tea. I've been working out a lot, I just cant seem to get my abs to change. My Butt, Legs, and Arms are all doing great and looking great.

Buy an old fashioned corset! It can take off a good 5 inches. And if you wear it all the time you find you eat less becuase you dont have room for alot of food. Not to mention they are sexy ;)

If you eat a lot of snacks or fattening food you have to switch to eating fruits & veggies as an alternative. Instead of sodas ... you have to switch to juices and water. Instead of sitting where ever you go, you should stand or walk even if you have a car.

You can eat 3 times a day but you must eat simple food like different kinds of rice, beans, fruits, vegetables and Juices (make sure that there is at least %5 percent real juice on their labels) Do NOT drink sodas Nor diet sodas (they're crap too). Try to eat all natural or organic juices whenever you can (even though they're a little more expensive). You can eat a little meat - maybe a total of 3 chicken pieces in 6 days No more! Maybe a few bites of beef but only twice a week. This will allow you to loose at least 5 pounds a week.

If you want to snack ... please snack on 1 or 2 fruits or vegetables! Not nutrition bars, Not diet chocolates and do not eat tons of anything. Those bars and sweet snacks should only be eaten once or twice a week because they are very fattening since they have bread and other fats. You can also snack on 1 single slice of wheat bread 2 or 3 times a week but don't put any tons sugary stuff on it unless it's your 1 day or eating the snacks you want.

One day a week you can eat anything!
This means you can go out to McDonalds and eat 1 big meal that includes burger, regular fries and drink juice not soda. Please don't go over board and gain more then 3 pounds on that day. Just stick to a few candies and a nice meal. But keep the food intake to a small amount and only eat 3 times a day. Little snacks are very important.

Fitness and healthy but simple exercise

Before you exercise remember to stretch all your muscles. Including your arms, legs, back and all other body parts. Stretching is important if you don't want to get hurt.

Walking a few minutes a day or jogging for a minute or 2 also stretches your muscles a little but I recommend that you buy a book with the right stretching techniques.

All you need to do is walk or run a few days a week to stay thin. If you're so lazy that you're not willing to do any running, park your car 10 blocks away from where ever you're going so you have to walk a little every day. I consider being too fat an act of terrorism since it's very bad for society as a whole. It's a bad example for children, it's depressing for you and others, it forces farms to produce unnecessary amounts of food (more work for farmers and less food for the truly needy and it slows down society.

More simple exercise
You can also do sit ups every other day Not every day! That's important and easy it will only take 3-8 minutes. You only need to do sit ups 2 or 4 days a week. But you can do them 1 to 3 times during the day to give yourself a little work out but remember that eating with moderation is the key.

Is that too much? NO! When doing sit ups You don't need to get all the way up or touch your knees. Just make sure you feel a little burn on your stomach. Do this in the mourning and at night every other day ... then you will start losing weigh and feeling better about yourself. Just keep eating healthy food with moderation and you'll be fine. I strongly recommend organic food and all natural food to everyone even though it's a bit more expensive then regular food.

Ok, this should help. A lot of people don't know is that it's hard for you to lose weight in some places because of your metabolism. One thing to do is 3 set of 20 situps rest. then max out on situps. Then do crunches side to side 3 set of 30 then max out on it. It should burn your stomach fat and love handles in a matter of 3-5 weeks. What people don't understand is you don't need a 3 hour a day workout to lose weight quick. You need SOLID quick workouts, once or maybe twice a day when you feel good. 15-30 minutes a day 3-4 times a week should do the trick.:)

Try pilates. The main target for pilates workouts is the abs. I suggest the Crunch DVD, "Pick Your Spot Pilates". This DVD has three 10 minute sections (Belly, Butt, and Thighs) and is amazing! It only takes a couple of days for you to really feel and see results in your abs. Even though only 1 section is specific for abs, the other sections still give your abs a great workout. You will see results, and it is relatively easy for people who are new to pilates. I recommend this DVD to anyone, especially for abs, 100%.

You're going to have enough to worry about without trying to speed diet between now and August. You're beautiful. If how you look in your wedding dress has you concerned, wear a light-weight girdle. Congratulations! Enjoy your wedding day!

Do situps every day. Take a walk after every meal. Sit on an exercise ball instead of a chair.

I say ask a trainer at the gym on what equipment you can use to help your abs, and watch what you eat.

Try going to www.foodchannel.com/rachelray for diet helpful hints. Try exercising by doing squats 50 times every other day it worked for me.
