I lost 60 lbs last year. I started by removing starch and sugar from my diet, along with very small portions about 6-8 times a day. After the initial weight loss, your body will start to change where the weight leaves. I still have my tummy and will always have it because of surgery, but it is no where near as big as before. I went from a very tight 16 to a loose 10 in 4 months. To make it easier to eliminate the bad foods, think of this. If it is white, don't eat it. The only way to tone your tummy and regain the muscels is to excersize. Not for me either. Good luck!
