Any tips on how to lose this? I do an ab workout every night, and run at the gym if I have time to go (along with working out). I also have started eating less portions of food and less fattening and sugary snacks. I try to eat a lot of protein. (Chicken, meat)

    Keep doing what you're doing and give it time. If that's you in the pic then you don't have much to lose. Just be consitent with your diet and exercise.

    I've read some threads on mfp and you need to eat right and lower your Bodyfat %. Some women show abs at different levels tho. Do u know your Bodyfat %?

    I have been doing the Jillian Michaels 6 week 6 pack DVD (not expecting a 6 pack though :smile: ) She mention that you can't lose belly fat with crunches alone. I think more core strengthening should help.

    I do a video I think her name is Jessica S, her YouTube name might be Miamiyeyo or something like that. She has a 12 minute video with exercises that include Russian twists, bicycles, crunches, scissors, leg lefts, and V ups. Hopefully it will pay off im sure it will eventually!

    Abs are made in the kitchen. They can be strong, but as long as there's a layer of fat over the top, you'll never see it. CICO & watch sugar/processed food.

    Very clean eating, sit-ups or any other ab workouts are not needed if you diet is clean and body fat is low.

    I make sure my food is clean, I wouldn't want to eat a dirty slice of pizza.

    clean eating is relative and is not necessary

    OP: you need to lower your body fat and make sure there is something to show under the fat. so that would be diet (and cardio if you want) and core work. more than just crunches.
