sit up and crunches will help to make muscle and a bit in burning the fat but the best way is running or climbing on treadmil, because the fat only burns when you sweat. you can use slim belts when you are running and for speed up the fat burn process you can use fat burners. but notice that only use fat burners when u Can't burn even a miligrams of fat.

Here are a few tips; WHEN to eat for losing weight... • Eat (at least) three times a day. Because when you eat only once a day, your metabolism gets slower than it already is! That's the main reason. Sounds funny, but to lose weight... you must eat (the right things, of course) • Eat low-fat, high-fiber foods such as salads and vegetable pastas. • Your last meal should be before 18:00. Try. OK, one apple after 18:00 • Don't starve Starvation is not good for losing weight, nor your health. Starvation is the worse thing you can do in a weight loss diet. • Try oatmeal instead of cornflakes for breakfast--eating oatmeal can help reduce cholesterol levels, and its high fiber content will keep you full longer. WHAT to drink for losing weight... • Drink 6-8 glasses of water every day ! Can be tap, plain, mineral, sparkling. I just love mineral sparkling water! This improves your bowel, reduces the "hunger" sensation, and hydrates your skin. Your skin will look much better after the first weeks! Don't believe the slogan "water makes me fat". Beside being stupid... you might get into serious troubles with your kidneys. • Drink ONLY natural juices, freshly squeezed! Don't drink Coca Cola, Pepsi, Spite etc. during the diet. Even lite or light versions. Exercise for losing weight... • If you want quicker results - exercise would be good. • Don't just sit in front of the TV and eat peanuts... I guarantee THIS won't work for your weight loss... • Start a regular exercise program and stick with it. Don't be afraid of those sweat suits and Lycra pants! • Start swimming. Swimming is an excellent exercise to get involved with, since it increases blood flow and uses muscles we don't regularly use. Start a swimming program and try to do it 3 times a week. You will feel excellent and rejuvenated. • Choose an exercise program that you enjoy, and don't shun the unconventional. For instance, did you know that regular vigorous dancing is exercise too? • Also Cardiovascular exercises such as running, jogging, or aerobics will help you lose that unwanted belly fat. Weight training can also help you lose body fat because the more muscle mass you have, the more ability your system has to burn body fat. Good luck! Hope this helps!

Go over to yoga. Kapaal Bhaati pranayaam can help. Be a devotee of Swami Ram Dev ( India).

No one ever wants to hear this, but the good old fashioned sit up really works. If you go to a gym with an ab roller, even better. You can also try this routine: http://www.womenshealthmag.com/article/0,6176,s1-1-52-1318-1,00.html?cm_mmc=Newsletter-_-2006_Nov_30-_-Fitness-_-8.Crazy.Ab.Moves
Which is similar to the one I recommend to my clients.
