I'm 5'6" or so and weigh about 200 pounds. I'm not like overly fat or anything...but I have a stomach and hips that I'd love to get rid of. I'm pretty active (play tennis with friends, walk everywhere on campus and around town). I don't eat out very often, eat pretty healthy. I just can't seem to lose weight. Last time I lost weight I was 16 and stopped eating anything besides granola bars and ramen noodles. Any suggestions?

find calorie/fitness calculator on the net, enter your stats, take 300-400 calories off that number and that's how much you need to lose weight.
5-8servings of fruit and veggies a day
8 glasses of water a day
5-6 small meals instead of 3 big ones (breakfast is the most important - make sure to get complex carbs like whole wheat bread, oatmeal, fruit etc)
4-6 times a week cardio for 30-50min, light weight training, many reps
no junk food, no sodas, no alcohol, no white flour (cakes, cookies, white bread, pasta etc.), nothing high in sugar (ice cream)
stay away from ramen noodles!!!

Get Bill Phillips' book Body for Life and read it. There is a lot of myth on weight loss and using this book transforms you. You'll see how many people it has helped.
Secondly, eating carbs like noodles, bread, cereal causes hunger cravings and is a great way to gain weight. Get healthy chocolate if you want to cut down on cravings. People lose weight on Xocai healthy chocolate because it's all natural, uses unprocessed everything and it cuts down on appetite.
A diet of high protein and fats and veggies is key.
Do this and you'll look stunning!

I would suggest a cleansing diet. I did this and lost 12 pounds and 17 inches in 9 days and then 28 pounds in about a month. I like the program since it works by giving your body nutrition through protein shakes with digestive enzymes and vitamins and then cleansing out the toxins. We get toxins in our bodies from pesticides, preservatives, water, pollution, medications, food additives etc…. These toxins enter our bodies and get coated with fat. To remove the extra fat, we need to get rid of the toxins through cleansing. The program also has a natural diet pill to help your metabolism and curb cravings. It works and it works fast. I lost 30 pounds in 5 weeks and I feel great. My skin has improved as well from the cleansing. You can get more info at this toll free number 1-877-587-4647. I think cleansing is really important to health and weight loss. Give it a try and good luck! http://diet4cleansing.com

When we lose weight, there is no way to specifically burn fat from one part of the body. Doing situps won't burn the fat that is covering your abs and doing tricep extensions won't get rid of the fat that is covering your triceps. The only thing you can do is lose weight all around and eventually the problem area will also improve.

have you gotten your thyroid checked? yuou wouldn't believe how much it affects every aspect of your daily life. I have hypothyroidism and take a pill daily. It's worth a look at.
