Orpheus answered Tuesday June 27 2006, 10:44 pm: LoveToLaugh37 is correct in that you will likely not see any results by Friday regardless of what you do. On thing you should understand right away is that there is absolutely no way to target certain spots on the body for fat loss. To lose fat in one area, you have to lose fat period. For fat loss, sensible eating habits and regular cardiovascular exercise are the best things you can do. For toning your stomach area to give it a more aesthetic look, there are a variety of exercises you can do. In my experience, Pilates is a fantastic way to strengthn your "core" muscles, and often results in the kind of look you're currently after. Classic sit-ups and crunches are always effective, especially if performed with lateral motion as well as upward motion to stimulate use of the obliques. Again, you are unlikely to see any detectable results by Friday, but starting now will definitely help you in the long run. [ Orpheus's advice column | Ask Orpheus A Question ]
LoveToLaugh37 answered Tuesday June 27 2006, 3:16 pm: Well I think I found a site that might help you-
You probably won't have the best results by Friday, so don't over work yourself if it's getting to be friday and you don't see any changes. It takes a while. Also, if you don't see any changes please don't start starving yourself because 1) It actually makes you gain weight. and 2) it's stupid.
