You can't spot reduce; you need to reduce your overall body fat.

There is no magic weight-loss pill, supplement, fad diet, or juice. The ONLY way to lose weight is to consume less calories than you burn. Brad Pitt didn’t get cut for Fight Club by drinking green tea, and you won’t either.

Walk for 30 minutes every day including weekends, Mondays, and Fridays. Do at least 30 minutes of weight training each week. Do 60 minutes of additional, higher intensity cardio each week. You don’t need additional equipment—infomercial products like the Ab Lounger, Sauna Belt, etc. are all worthless so don’t waste your money.

Cut back on the foods you eat with high fat and high sugar content. Eat only single servings (read the label) with less than 3 grams trans fat and 3 grams sugars. Your primary source of sustenance should be grilled boneless skinless chicken breasts and canned tuna (in water, not oil). No dairy (except low fat cottage cheese occasionally); no processed meats; no heavy sauces; no chips, cookies, sodas, breads, etc.

Eat breakfast, and eat five small meals per day instead of three big meals. Don’t starve yourself during the day, but if you don't wake up famished, then you ate too much the day before. Stop eating at least two hours before you go to bed.

Get 6 to 8 hours of sleep every night. Turn off the TV and the computer. Sleep is vitally important.

Don't consume alcohol—alcohol is nothing more than empty calories with no nutritional value. Some people will argue that alcohol has some health benefits when consumed in moderation—I’m not debating that—but we’re talking about weight loss here. Lay off the booze if you want to lose the fat.

Drink lots of water, then drink more. Not tea, not Gatorade, not milk. Water. If your urine isn’t almost clear, you need to drink more water.

Good luck.

i think at 14 you're too obsessed with having the ab look*
If you're eating healthy foods ,not alot of pop, or chips or cakes etc...and you're running for an hour, doing 50 crunches and then run another 30min...drinking plenty of water....You should be losing inches* You can't expect to have abs* in one month~! have you lost weight?? I would think you have. Continue to do your crunches and try to increase a few extra every day.
Try holding your stomach muscles in as many times as possible throughout the day for as long as you can* It will strengthen your core muscles which will help when doing crunches to form those abs* GOODLUCK and keep at it*~

50 crunches isn't a lot. YOU HAVE TO REALLY WORK HARD

you should take one - two days off a week for your muscles to relax and for them to regenerate.

you are a kid and you're going to overwork yourself and cause probs later...maybe you should eat healthier.
