Thank you, I have not lifted before but heard that it makes u gain weight bc you are gaining more muscle and squats yes I plan on doing that, the meal plan is the hardest for me I need to look into a Dietician that can assist me with that, Thank You very much.

Thank You, I had my cholesterol checked etc. it was fine just wondering why it seems to not go away and/or takes so long, but i have began to work out and will see how this goes.

It is important to do some weightlifting with light weights.  Jumping rope is very slimming.  Exercises that work the thigh muscles are helpful, the most important being squats.  Decrease starchy foods and fried foods and aim for a mild decrease in overall callories, but eat a high volume of vegetables cooked in healthy ways (not fried) to keep yourself full.  Also eat lean protein and when hungry, consider having a few nuts and a piece of fruit.

If belly fat is all you have, you may have a medical condition that can cause belly fat.  Insulin resistance is one, high cortisol levels is another.  You might want to get checked out.

Walking is good for helping to remove belly fat, as is yoga. There is no way to "spot reduce", but exercise and healthy diet containing plenty of fiber will help you lose weight overall, and belly fat is usually first to go.
