Q: 16/f
105lbs 5'4"
Ok, so i'm going to an event with my school on Thursday. I need to dress up, the only problem is, the dress shirt i want to wear is just a little tight, and shows a little weight around my hips.
Personally, i dont' think i am fat at all, but i just want to drop a couple pounds, and make my stomach look thinner by thursday so i can wear the outfit i want to wear, and look alright in it.
Couple anyone suggest easy exercises that would help my stomach and ab region. Right now, i'm doing at least 50 v-ups at least 100 crunches, and about 25 pushups along with a few other exercises thrown in. I've been doing this for a while, and it doesn't bother me at all or hurt my muscles, so i just need some suggestions that i can add to the exercise to at least appear to thin down my stomach in the next couple days.
I've also been eating less recently (i don't normally eat alot in the first place), but i've cut back alot, and have avoided fried food and unhealthy snacks when i can.
Any suggestions about exercises or food are appreciated thanks :D

Wow..yeah Thursday is pretty close so you may not get to your goal by then.
Your working your upper tummy by doing crunches, but it won't hurt to work your lower tummy too: while your in the upper crunch position..bring your right knee up and across (pointing to opposite shoulder/elbow) without lifting your back from the floor, hold it there, do the same on other side, and repeat as many times as necessary.
I don't like recommending this, but since you are only trying to lose a small amount..buy some water pills for this one time use, and take them around Tuesday night, they will take 2-5 pounds off of you almost immediately (be sure to follow the directions exactly - you don't want to be in the hospital for dehydration!). This water weight won't stay off, of course, it's merely a temporary solution for Thursday, keep up your exercise and diet routine anyway, because that will be permanent!
AND don't forget to strut your stuff!

thanks for the advice. I may try the water pills because, like you said, i only need the weight off to look ok in the shirt i want to wear, i'm fine with gaining it back later. Thanks for the help, i'm sure the exercize will help too!

I'm a 36 year old mom who has too much life experience. I realize that, no matter your age, life throws some crazy curve balls at you when you least expect it. I know in my heart that absolutely no one is perfect..and we all make wrong decisions at one time or another; and sometimes we just need someone to help us out without being judgmental! Furthermore, I think that the only stupid question is the one that you don't ask...knowledge is power.
One of my favorite sayings:
"If you live in a glass house, don't throw stones."
Well folks, we ALL live in glass houses at one time or another!
Never say never,
Jasmine
