How to have a flat stomach?

[EberWavesofGrain]

Ok, I need surefire ways to flatten my stomach. I've got ridiculous amounts of pudge and I'm sick of it.

I've been working on doing situps, although I sometimes think I don't do them right because I put a pillow behind me for my head.

But anyway.

PLEASE.

I need anything that can help. Exercises to do (with instructions, por favor) and anything..foods to eat, foods to avoid..

Whatever will help.

I'm joining a gym soon, but I really need to have a flat stomach in 9 months.

Please don't post any diet scams -.-

I need details, anything that will work. Thank you in advance<3

I saw very similar question before but I'll repeat myself =)

You really need to cut on sugar or any sweets, because body finds it hard to digest them and

it might leave you bloated and it will all be stored as fat. No fizzy drinks, water or green tea are

well good (green tea helps with metabolism), also water with lemon.

Try to eat more fruit and veg, nuts as well (the best are almonds), they are rich in fibre.

Also yoghurt but which one is low on fat and sugar - they contain bifidobacteria which will help

with digestion.

Don't eat much red meat like beef, fish is much much better.

Eat every 3 hours but lighter meals, it will keep your metabolism working, in between 1 hour after the meal have a drink.

Good eating will help with getting rid of fat while doing crunches every day will build the muscles.

Try to lie on the flat surface and when lifting your head hold yourself in that position and count to

10 (or it's up to you) and do it 15 times - that could be enough and doesn't take much time.

Hope it helps and good luck =)

Thank you...

I don't know if I can cut back on fizzy sodas though..I need my diet coke/pepsi :/

and I try to avoid fish....but I like the vegetarian fake meat, so I can try to go with that and less red meat.

I usually do 100 situps, with the pillow behind me...I'll try working up to being able to do them on a flat surface, but I've got a really bad head/back/neck :/

Thank you (:

Sit ups are good for tightening your muscles, but you need to lose the fat on top of your muscles by doing cardio. Running, elliptical machines, and power walking are good ways to lose weight. Also cut out soda (if you drink it) and reduce your sugar intake. Chewing sugarfree gum helps reduce munching in between meals.

I always chew sugarfree gum :3

Shiiiiiiiiit...I can't cut out sodas D:

I need caffeine to keep myself aliveee.... :/

Are there any alternatives?

I do own an elliptical machine, so I'll try to start using that XD

running and power walking might be rare..but I'll do it.

Thank you (:
