Best Bodyweight Strength Exercises?

I want that sexy stomach every woman is after, but I need to do some strength workout and I just don't have money for weights or a gym membership. I'm trying to save up for maybe a small barbell set, but I don't think it's worth it. I live in a tiny apartment - I can't just turn my basement into a gym.

So what's the best way to build up strength and get a sexy-not-pregnant-looking stomach?

    Not preggo stomach:
    1. Don't be preggo.
    2. Lose BF.

    Strength gainz:
    1. Pushups (especially when you start elevating your feet)
    2. Pistol squats
    3. Pullups
    4. Hanging situps/crunches
    5. Deadlifts and Snatches using a duffle bag filled with weight.

    In my opinion Jillian Michales workouts do a great job of tightening up the body. They are not as good as a weight loss tool I never lose much weight on the scale when I do her workouts... I always manage to loose inches though.
