In order to lose fat you need to improve your diet (stay away from junk food).
Here is a link that can give you guidance on how to lose weight.

You will need to learn which foods you can eat and which food will prevent you from losing weight. Generally low fat protein sources such as chicken, turkey, and fish, egg whites, etc. are good to eat. Red meat is fine once in awhile, but if you want to lose weight it is best to stay away from it for awhile because it is higher in fat. Fruit and veggies are obviously very important too. Never eat white bread or pasta. Eat whole wheat food such as Fiber One cereal. Many cereals are high in sugar and you should avoid sugar if you want to lose weight. Oatmeal is good too, but it has to be the large flake type, Not instant or pre-packaged flavour oatmeal because it has been processed and sugar has been added in the flavoured ones. Add your own flavour to oatmeal such as cinnamon, splenda (or stevia) and vanilla. For dairy, drink skim (non-fat) milk and plain yogurt with no sugar. You can add berries to sweeten the yogurt and add flavour. Cottage cheese is also a good source of protein, it is good if you mix it with fruit, I prefer slices of orange or mandarin oranges.It's a good idea to keep a food diary and track your weight,
This website does all the work (calculations) for you www.fitday.com
It will tell you how many calories you eat and lots of other stuff!
You need to do cardiovascular exercise to burn fat. Some activities burn more fat than others. Here is a link where you can enter your personal information, choose an activity, duration and it will calculate the calories you burn.

Surf the web to find others. The important thing is work hard enough to get your heart rate up.Here is a link to a target heart rate calculator.

Weightlifting will also cause you to lose weight by raising your metabolism. The faster your metabolism is, the more calories you burn. Don't worry, weightlifting will not cause you to look like a bodybuilder. It will tone your muscles and your body will look sexy, slim and curvy. Nobody wants to look like Nicole 'Skeletor' Ritchie.
As you can see there is alot of work involved in losing fat. A HECK of alot more work than just doing sit-ups. If it was that easy everybody would be thin. It's not easy, that's why there are so many obese people. It takes two important things, work and education to lose weight. This should get you started!!!
Weight loss pills don’t work, read this story…

well dont try to lose it like in a week or something.it feels good to lose but if you dont do it the right way it comes back.i would just start counting calories and start an exercise program..i did weight watchers before i got pregnant.i liked it because i didnt have to count or add any calories fat,whatever.they did it all for me. i like weight watchers for that reason and because after you lose the weight you want,you still stick with the diet and it will help you control that weight.but really you are just gonna have to suck it up work your little heart out and eat healthy if you wanna do it the right way.good luck on losing your weight?!

Herbalife! I have been on their products now for 2 months and I have lost 20 pounds and a ton of inches and this is the only diet that has ever worked for me. I have a slice of pie for breakfast, another for lunch and whatever I want for dinner. I love the products so much I now distribute them and I am a Weightloss and Wellness Coach! Let me know if I can give you a free wellness evaluation and do for you the same thing my coach (and best friend) has done for me! Good Luck!

Starve yourself. Work out non-stop. Basically, become anorexic. Best of luck.
