At fourteen That is the perfect weight for you! I think if you were to try to lose any more weight
It wouldnt be good for your health. If it's just your stomach you don't like, you can do exercises that focus only on your stomach. Like crunches, leg lifts, bicycle leg movements that involve moving your shoulders from one side to the other while laying down. One thing is that all girls have a stomach or a little gut. Our bodies are formed this way so we can have babies some day :). So you might be fighting nature. But if not just look up workouts that will focus on your stomach.

Being 14 and 110 lbs I would say, not knowing your height, that you are either at you best weight or possible a little under weight. I see no reason for you to lose weight. Flatening of your stomach requires exercise of those muscles. Sit ups and stomach crunches are the best way to tone those muscles.

Your age also has a lot to do with your body shape. At 14 you could be just starting into puberty, which can go on into your 20's. Your body would still be defining itself and lossing what we call your baby fat. Doing sit ups and stomach crunches will assist your hormones in defining your lower body as you are toning and tightening those muscles.

I do not recommend losing weight as being under weight is more dangerous than being slightly over weight. Your body is in reality an electro-mechanical machine. To function properly it needs fuel. Fuel is a proper diet to maintain a proper weight for your height and body structure. If the body does not get what it needs it will look for it whereever it can find it. The first place it looks is stored fat, some of which is stored in muscle tissue.

If you are under weight and the body is looking for more fuel all the exercise in the world will not properly tone those muscles for they will be missing what they need to tone up.

So before you diet find out if you need to. Find out what your ideal weight should be. Ask you doctor if need be. A few pounds over is fine as muscle ways more than fat. Cut out the junk food and eat a proper diet. Exercise properly and get plenty of rest. Following this plan will give you the flat stomach you want. Your plan could make you sick.

This is such a common problem for girls. I am 15 and weigh about 100lbs and I have a flat stomach. You know how I get this? Excersice and healthy eating. That's all you can do.

During the summer try and find places to get some excersice. Whether it's a gym, going for a hike, biking, swimming, or you can even do excersices at your local park. I do it all the time! Look online for excersices that can help give you a flatter stomach as that is your main focus. Or, try making up some of your own. Sit ups are a great one, and there are tons more, you just got to research.

And then the next component is eating healthy. I know it's hard in the summer cause you eat when you feel like it, and there is ice cream and all that, but you can still eat those. Just in moderation. Try to incorporate all or most of the food groups in every meal, and even snack can be healthy. Carrot stick, apples etc. And then you can reward yourself at different parts of the day. Ex. You can have 3 treats at 3 different times of the day. Morning, afternoon and night.

Just follow this advice and look online for other tips. Make sure to stay determined and focused.

Hope I could help and good luck :) x
