i found this artical called "50 Habits of "Naturally Thin" People
How to get Started:Decide how much you want to loose and see how many calories a day it will take to make it happen by year's end.Then, work into your routines however many of these eating tweaks and exercises you need to achieve your goal.

Try an AbSlide. I've got one, and it's a good workout, and not just for your abs. It's tiny and not too expensive. Maybe some sit-ups would help too. As for leg slimmers, take lots of long walks. I have also heard that yoga is excellent for improving your body, though I've never tried it.

Though it's impossible to improve all of these areas a lot in such a short time period, be consistant with your exercises. I personally am joining a gym so I can look good when I go to my swim club this summer. If nothing seems to be working, you might want to try joining a gym too.

Also remember that many people wear shirts over their swimsuit at the beach. If you want to, you can wear a shirt and shorts over your swimsuit.

Since you don't have enough time to make a huge difference on your body, I suggest that you find a swimsuit that looks good on you. Try finding a one or two piece swimsuit that is meant to make you look slimmer. And remember that not everyone on the beach is a model and looks great in a bikini. There's plenty of people that enjoy the beach and pool without being perfectly toned. There's no reason you can't be one of them.

Good luck!

I think its impossible to get a swimsuit ready body in just a week. If there is a way, I would love to know though!

Crunches, lunges, kick boxing. If you only have a week, i don't know how likely it is for you to change your body in 7 days...I would suggest picking a swim suit that flatters you and hides your flaws. like a tankini with a wrap around your waist.

crunches on the floor are the best for the abs and sides. Do high leg kicks for the gluts. Kick straight back and up. You can do it, and good luck.
