Alin75 answered Saturday January 8 2005, 11:12 pm: I keep repeating this on this site because people give crap misleading advice on fitness. You wont like what i have to say (no one does) but believe me its the truth- just check it out yourself. Here goes... there is no way, no how, never ever possible to lose fat from a specific area of the body. No exercise can do this we simple do NOT work that way. You can lose weight in general but the order of fat loss is decided by our genes and thats that. You can only work on adding muscle to an area which might (at most) tighten it up a bit giving the illusion that theres less flab (but will also likely make the area bigger). Now, if you want to lose the weight do not listen to the imbeciles that tell you to do crunches or whatever, these exercises should be a part of an overall workout routine because in the end what counts are the calories you burn and the food you eat.

Karen answered Saturday January 8 2005, 9:27 pm: You really can't do anything about your hips because it's just bone but are you talking about the layer of skin above it? Those are called love handles and you can do side crunches to get rid of the fat. For your thighs, here's a website of exercises for them: [Link](Mouse over link to see full location). Hope I helped :)
