Eat a balanced diet at a moderate calorie deficit. Lift heavy weights.

Unfortunately you can't spot-reduce your belly, it'll be about lowering your body-fat %.
Have you tried changing your calorie intake so you're not stuck in a rut?

You look very small in your pic though!!!

What should I not eat? and I will try the weights thanks so much!

Well, IF you give up, then NO, there is no hope for you.

Try the South Beach Diet...lose belly fat first. Mainly vegetables and lean meat to begin with (first 2 weeks), slowly add in fruits and whole grains.

I noticed when I lost 10 lbs, my belly doesn't do the muffin top as bad. I still see it, but I don't think others notice it as bad as it was when I was 10 lbs heavier. I didn't do anything extra special, except cardio 5 times a week and eating a little better.

Don't give up

Eat whatever you want as long as you're hitting your numbers, 40/30/30 carb/protein/fat is a good middle of the road setting that a lot of people use. But feel free to tweak the numbers to what feels best to you.

If you want to lose the fat, you have to do cardio. So get your heart rate up, eat your allocations, and know that you can't win if you don't play! As others have mentioned, there is no way to lose fat in a specific area. You can build up particular muscles, but if there's a layer of fat on top of it all, you likely won't be able to see them.

Good luck and stick with it!

Aren't you a winner? Winners never quit and quitters never win. You can do this. Baby steps is the key. You didn't get that abdomen overnight and it will not leave overnight. Stop letting your body get to you. Take control over your body and let it know that you are in control.

What should I eat?

Follow the food pyramid. You can never go wrong there. Eat in moderation and portion size. Drink plenty of water.

Attention: Abs starts in the kitchen.

What should I NOT eat?

Food is not the enemy, unless you give it that power. Never deprive yourself of anything that you like, unless the doctor takes you off something for your health. Other than that, fit in to your daily calories things that you like.

What workouts are good to loose this belly?

Cardio. Try Tae Bo Insane Abs. Add it to the calorie routine you are already doing. Trust me, it will help you.

Do you drink beer or other drinks that cause bloating? My sister's stomach looks very much like yours. When it's just us, she thinks it's funny to show me her stomach. My sister thinks her tummy comes from bloating which she blames on her TOM or beer.

Did you go see a doctor? Maybe, just maybe, it's something that you are eating. Maybe something is causing the bloating-easy, good or bad.
