ok i know these questions are always on here and people are starting to get tired of them, so i'm sorry. i was just wondering how to loose 10 pounds asap. i'm about 5'3 1/2" and i'm 137 pounds. i would like to lose at least 10 pounds. mostly in my lower abs because its just gross all my fat is there. i do 60 crunches every day before i go to sleep but that doesnt seem to work for me. any ideas how i can lose the weight? thankss.

Things like these take time, so you have to be willing to work at it.
The crunches you are doing aren't going to help you lose any fat tissue off of your stomache. All crunches and situps do are tighten your abs, effectively making them stronger, but not getting rid of any fat.
To get rid of fat you need cardio exercise. This means biking, running, or swimming, the last being the best for you. However, another great way is to jump rope. Grab a skipping rope and jump for 45 seconds, making sure you keep your posture straight, not slumped over. After your 45, take a minute break, and do it again. If this seems too easy, shorten the break time, but don't lengthen the amount of jumping, as you need the break to maintain posture.
If you keep this up with some biking or jogging, and eating correctly (ie: not gorging yourself, and keeping snacks to a minimal and healthy), you should be seeing that fat tissue dissolve over time.
I can't stress enough how much time this takes. This isn't something you're going to be able to do in a day, or a week, no matter how hard you excersize. Don't be discouraged though - stick at it, and you'll be seeing results.
Hope this has helped,
