Ok the best way i know to loose weight that has worked for me is to climb up and down stairs walk around do situps and yeah cause that's what i did and i have lost like 40 lbs so try that then tell me how it worked for you.

You are right that just trying to target the stomach area with just situps won't do it all for you. That stubborn area is one of the toughest areas to keep lean looking. If you have the opportunity, then running is the way to go. It really burns fat and that is what you need to do. Female bodies tend to store excess fat in the butt and the stomach and thighs. Try to read the labels of the foods you eat and pick the ones with the least amount of fat content in them. Try to keep your calorie intact to probably no more then 1200 for your size. Those drinks called Slimfast can really be useful because they provide you with essential body needs but help you to lose weight. And to be honest 119 doesn't sound all that bad. You may be harder on yourself then you realize. -- Ace
