Most of my weight is in my stomach, and I'm looking to lose about 40 pounds. I'd like to lose the weight by spring time, and I just wanted to know if anyone has any tips for losing fat around my stomach and hips/butt - without the help of diet pills. I would appreciate any advice you can give!

I lost 105 pounds in 6 months. Here is how I did it.
1. Every morning get up and walk for 45 minutes. You can start with less time, but you want to get up to 45 minutes, and it must be fast walk. You want your heart rate to go up. It must be in the morning, it kick starts your metabolism.
2. I cut out Red Meat, and fatty foods. Boneless skinnless chicken breast, baked, or grilled, rice and vegetables (steamed).
3. Eat half. Just eat half of what you normally eat. Put 1/2 on your plate, and put the rest away. Cook less. When you go to fast food, get salads only. Or grilled chicken. No fries, only diet soda. Or water.
It will work, once you get into a routine, you will get hooked on the results, and you will keep the routine. It has been over a year for me.

A good way to lose that weight is to run each morning before breakfast for 30-45 minutes. Maybe start with twenty minutes and keep this up at least 5 times a week. Make sure to eat well and drink plenty of water!

Count your carbs. 15 grams of carbohydrates equal 1 carb. Look on the labels, find the serving size and the grams of carbohydrates in everything you eat. Start out with eating 9 carbs a day (if you have a sedentary lifestyle you might go even lower to like 6 a day).
Schedule regular exercise - I mean REGULAR exercise - preferably in the morning.
Decide to change your life - that you are no longer happy living this way and you want to lose this weight and keep it off.
My husband lost 75 pounds and I lost 40 pounds this way - we did that 4 years ago and never looked back.
You will be amazed at how you are addicted to carbs and how much, much, much better you feel when you control that substance.
Good luck.
