They say you can't target where you lose weight with cardio exercise but you can tone up specific areas for example your abdominal area, you can't exactly say 'i want to lose fat off my lower stomach' but if you do cardio to lose fat everywhere and combine it with the following exercises, you will start seeing results:) :
1) Crunch
-Lie down flat on your back on a bench/or floor
-Hold your stomach in and lift your legs (straight out) about 45 degrees in the air
-Then return them slowly to the resting position (without touching the ground)
-Repeat as much as you need to
2) Half crunch
-Lie down flat on your back on the floor
-Hold your stomach in
-Slowly lift your head to do a sit-up, BUT only go half way
-Hold for 10 seconds
-Lower yourself again and repeat as much as you need to
3) Body raise(i find this one great for the area you're describing)
-Lie down flat on your back on the floor with your arms, palms facing down beside you
-Hold your stomach in and lift your legs up until your lower back has risen too, then lower again, you can do this at any speed you feel..The quicker the better
-Repeat as much as you can
4) Plank(this will feel like its hurting but that's how it should feel)
- Facing the ground, rest yourself on your forearms keeping your back straight
-Now, contract your stomach(holding it in) and hold for twenty seconds then release
-Repeat this four to five times.
There's a few i find really useful for the lower stomach area:)
Also try not to eat too much starchy foods like white bread, white rice and potatoes as they cause bloating in that area. Try changing to brown or soya bread, borwn rice and sweet potatoes, green tea is good too. You don't have to go on a diet, just cut down on foods that bloat you:) Just remember when exercising, you need to do both cardio and toning to get a good stomach not just one or the other:)
Hope that helps!

The only thing that will really help that is doing lots of cardio. Start running everyday. It works out that little pooch, but it also helps with other parts of your body. Your stomach is never going to be completely flat. Girls are supposed to have a little extra fat there because it's extra room to support a child, but running will get you close. Also you could try pilates. It really tones your body as well.

But if your a girl, which I think you are, Ive heard that the fat or skin below your belly is for when you have children.

do sit ups or if you have an ABlounge that works too. i have one and it gives you a really nice firm stomach free of fat. and it gets rid of the fat under your belly button too
