    You can't spot reduce. reducing your overall body fat will help. Also building muscle in that area could help

    Yeah, you can't pick and choose where the loss comes from. I have the same problem, and even with my weight down to about the 180lbs you're aiming for, they're still there although definately reduced. I've been told to lift some weights to tone the area, not tried that yet, but seems like sound advice. Good luck!

    Yep, do some chest exercises. Make sure you do them with the proper form. A lot of people don't.

    I have heard that man boobs, as well as back arm fat, and back of your thigh fat all have some to do with estrogen build up in men. Not sure how accurate that is, but you could try to get rid of products with estrogen, or that promote estrogen..ie milk, soy...

    That being said, I would concentrate on muscle build up and you should get the results you want.
