I intend to start walking and jogging after work. Is it best to go after dinner or before.
And to lose weight and get fit how often should I do this and how long for, 30 minutes or more?

I want to lose stomach weight more than anything, but also want to get fit.

Thanks

It would be better to do your jogging or running after dinner, like 30 to 1 hour after. Make sure you worm up your muscles first by jogging on the spot or even doing a few jumping jacks. Then do a detailed stretch as well so you will prevent any injury from pulled muscles or cramps. And if you won't to lose some stomach weight you will by jogging and eating right. It would work allot better if you worked your lower abs. It will be hard but stick with it. Oh keep in mind if you are just start jogging or running it would be beneficial for you to go gat running shoes made for running. And only use them for that purpose. I hope I was a help.

Have a look at this. This link well lead you in the right direction.
Lower Ab Workout (http://www.musclesurf.com/lowerabs.html)
It saves me time getting you a link rather then writing it all out for you. You only have to do this 30 min a day. Add it to your jogging or running and believe you me you will see results. Don't forget that you only get what you won't from what you put into it. It will be hard but stay with it. I feel like Richard Simmons. Lol. Anyway tell me how you make out.

When you want to lose weight, running or jogging is a good start, try working up to a mile, 4-5 times a week, also work in other activities, you need to work the entire body to lose weight, like weights/resistance training, swimming, threadmill, aerobics, 30-60 minutes worth 3-4 times a week. Along with healthy food choices in the right portion, you should see results soon.
