Personally, I found out the best way to get rid of tummy is jogging. Jogging at least 40 minutes daily for 1 month, you should notice it. Must be real hard jogging that until your whole body sweating, actually you can even start noticing your tummy getting smaller in 2 weeks.
So guys, you have any other suggestions that work?

Spot reduction doesn't work. So doing endless crunches to trim the tummy, is a myth. Best way for a trimmer body is to lose weight & combine with a resistance programme & some form of core training (yoga/pilates is an example).
And you are right, jogging/running is one of the best method to lose weight. Wanna lose weight really quick, try doing 20+ km a week.

What do u fitness gurus think? I work late & lazy to exercise when come back late from work

He teaches the difference between the shape you can change and helps you find the personal protein prescription to best achieve your goals.

David Herber, M.D.,Ph.D Director, UCLA Centre for Human Nutrition
TEN REASONS FOR THE BEST DIET RESULTS - GUARANTEED!
Here are the 10 reasons for our success:
The top selling book 'The LA Shape Diet' written by the Director of the UCLA Centre of Human Nutrition, Dr David Heber explains the science of diet success. The book is based on years of research & diet counselling at the centre. This is his definitive cutting edge diet programme (you can buy the book on Amazon).
For best results your 'DIET MUST BE PERSONALISED' to your individual body shape. Everyone's body shape is different. One size does not fit all. Your body shape is more important than your weight. We help you be the best shape you can be! This is our challenge -if you've been hungry on diets & put the weight back on - this is for you!
'PROTEIN' is the key. Most people don't eat enough protein. This means your blood sugar is low making you feel tired & grumpy. Protein controls hunger. We match the protein in your body with your diet. You don't feel hungry or tired. You feel great! A protein only diet delivers immediate weight loss BUT for long term success AS WELL - you MUST have 'good carbohydrates' to be fit & healthy. We help you get an immediate result AND safe long term weight off too! Measuring fat is not important. It is no help in designing the perfect diet for you. We calculate your 'lean body mass' to tell us how much protein your unique body shape needs. Upper body weight is most dangerous. Lower body weight is what makes a woman female & sexy. This is often hard to shift because women evolved to keep weight on for child rearing. We can now help you to be the best shape you can be! Typically women need around 100g protein a day Men 150g. Basically your body needs 1g protein per 1 pound of lean body mass (i.e. not fat).
'WHY OUR PROGRAMME IS UNIQUELY SUCCESSFUL'. You don't feel hungry on our diet because our unique Formula 1 & Protein Supplement Powder has the best possible blend of soy & whey protein to safely lose weight immediately AND over a prolonged period by controlling your hunger. You don't feel hungry for 2 -3 hours after taking this shake. To lose weight, replace two meals a day with our delicious & versatile shakes (we'll send you an 'e-Book' of exciting recipes). It combines the perfect balance of good carbohydrates, 'heart-healthy' fibre & protein.
The third meal can be of your choice - just learn to cut back a little.
Formula two has 14 vitamins, minerals and herbs uniquely designed to complement and balance with the shake. 'ALL THE NUTRITION THE BODY NEEDS' - unlike deprivation diets where the body tries to cope without the nutrition you have cut out - so it piles the weight back on when you stop.
Plus we have 'UNIQUE TARGETED PRODUCTS' including delicious protein bars & Theromojetic tea to hydrate, release energy, give stamina & focus.
'THE FACTS'. Our meal replacement diet has been scientifically proven, with many testimonials, to keep weight off. In long term STUDIES in Germany & USA - monitored over five years and more. The USA National Registry of Dieters who have kept weight off long term includes many of our product users.
'ALL HERBALIFE PRODUCTS ARE NATURALLY DERIVED' - we have Olympic athletes and top sportspeople training on our products.
In addition - because we are replacing meals & stopping your body craving unhealthy snacks - you don't feel hungry - so you can 'SAVE MONEY' too!

American Heart Association Comments On High Protein Diet As A Strategy For Weight Reduction
Date: Friday, January 11 @ 15:27:11 MYT
You may have heard of some groups promoting high protein diet as a "new" strategy for successful weight loss. Protein content of some of such diets can go up to 30-60% of total energy. Carbohydrate content in such diets is reduced to as low as 5%. Fat energy goes up to as much as 30-60%.They are also recommended as a better "alternative" to the conventional carbohydrate-based diet.
Your patients and subjects must have asked you at some point about such diets. Please do not be misled by promotions of such high protein diets. Please stay with the recommendations of the Ministry of Health and endorsed by the Nutrition Society of Malaysa of the food guide pyramid that you are already familiar with. Almost all health authorities in the world, the WHO and FAO are following the same guidelines.
Below is the abstract of a recent article from the America Heart Association, commenting on this high protein diet. This article appreared in the journal Circulation 104(15): 1869-1874, 2001 and is an official statement from the AHA Science Advisory and Coordinating Committee of June 2001. You can read the full article in: http://circ.ahajournals.org/cgi/content/abstract/104/15/1869
High-protein diets have recently been proposed as a "new" strategy for successful weight loss. However, variations of these diets have been popular since the 1960s. High-protein diets typically offer wide latitude in protein food choices, are restrictive in other food choices (mainly carbohydrates), and provide structured eating plans. They also often promote misconceptions about carbohydrates, insulin resistance, ketosis, and fat burning as mechanisms of action for weight loss. Although these diets may not be harmful for most healthy people for a short period of time, there are no long-term scientific studies to support their overall efficacy and safety. These diets are generally associated with higher intakes of total fat, saturated fat, and cholesterol because the protein is provided mainly by animal sources. In high-protein diets, weight loss is initially high due to fluid loss related to reduced carbohydrate intake, overall caloric restriction, and ketosis-induced appetite suppression. Beneficial effects on blood lipids and insulin resistance are due to the weight loss, not to the change in caloric composition. Promoters of high-protein diets promise successful results by encouraging high-protein food choices that are usually restricted in other diets, thus providing initial palatability, an attractive alternative to other weight-reduction diets that have not worked for a variety of reasons for most individuals. High-protein diets are not recommended because they restrict healthful foods that provide essential nutrients and do not provide the variety of foods needed to adequately meet nutritional needs. Individuals who follow these diets are therefore at risk for compromised vitamin and mineral intake, as well as potential cardiac, renal, bone, and liver abnormalities overall.
Yes, exercise is the only way but for a more effective result, you need to combine it with supplements and control of things that you eat. To achieve faster result, combine cardio like jogging with weight training and stretching exercises. Pilates movement that target the abs is very effective.
I am an advocate for a healthy diet and exercise.I've tried all kinds of weight loss pills and slimming programmes but at the end of day...it's still back to having a balanced diet and exercise.
Try eating lots and lots of fruits and vegetables, drink more water, have regular exercise and yes.. and you would be on your way to a healthier and slimmer you... _________________ "Outdo yourself"

personally i find power-walking to be the best way to lose weight.
jogging may help you lose weight fast but over the long time it'll encourage muscle build up in the calves. which i think it doesn't look too nice on girls.
but it's not jst walking, it's power walking. gotta walk the walk with resistance, ie napsack. i used to walk from jln 222 to section 14 during my training last year..and the result i lost 5kg over the period of 3 months..
but of course i ate a lot of junk food..that's why only lost so little weight.
one word of caution: never take diet pills/slimming pills/ meal replacement shakes...it'll only wreck up your metabolism system. u will lose weight while u take those but once u start eating like normal..you'll blow up twice your weight before you start dieting. dun ever do yo-yo diets...
the best whole body workout (to slim down-GIRLS) is swimming/yoga/pilates/aerobics
but again it depends on your body types to know which exercise suits you.
if u noe wats yr body type, u will not have a prob losing weight..jst eat according to your body type, blood group...u'll stay fit, lean and trim.
