Sit ups and crunches will give you the best results.

Take a look at this chart and you'll see your weight IS in the right proportion to your height.

From your height and weight, I don't think you sound overweight at all. But if you want to lose a few pounds, start by exercising and watching what you eat. Running or jogging is a great easy way to exercise (cheap and don't need any equipment) and as far as food goes, try to eat smaller portions.

Below is a link to a chart that lists heights and weights. It all depends on your frame and amount of muscle you have.

If you want to lose weight, try Curves. I lost 24 inches overall in just 2 months. I cut out fast food, chips and candy and went to Curves 5 days a week. I'm much happier now.

UR DEFFINATLEY NOT FATTT! that is deffinatley an average weight..also it matches with ur height..what i can say is to do some situps and crunches..work out and eat heathier..that way their u r replacing the extra something on ur stomach with muscel..thats the best way to go if u want ur stomach flat! good luck and i know that will work for you..!

Well, i think that you should cut down on eating so much if you eat alot and watch what you eat, maybe go for early walk and find some kind of exercise that you find fun and do it regularly.

from your height and weight you don't seem at all over weight to me!! but if you really want to lose a little "poutch" then i would suggest doing sit ups and going for runs. also eat a diet full of calcium, i've heard it helps you lose weight. but remember don't go to overboard. you don't want to be anorexic. that would be bad

Here is a support group called OA for eatting problems.

This is what one person said about there experience:

Twenty-One and Afraid

As a youth, I didn't believe I could trust anyone. Yet, the secrets that haunted the corners of my mind were destroying my life and making me crazy. I knew that I was very close to ending my life. If I didn't end it myself, I knew that my disease of compulsive eating and purging would end it for me.

I grew up in an alcoholic home and was molested many times by "family friends." Being the quiet good girl of the family, I never told a soul. I started withdrawing and soon became the world's greatest chameleon. I could put on any mask.

Food was the only thing over which I had power. When I was angry or hurt, I would smile sweetly and act as if everything were fine. Then I would go off by myself to binge and purge until I felt good again. However, this good feeling was only temporary. Soon the disease overtook my body and soul, leaving nothing of the real me. I hated everyone around me. I was dead inside.

Then, at the age of 21, I stumbled into a Twelve-Step meeting. Thank God! My life has never been the same since. Working the Steps stripped away the dead layers and brought alive the person I had buried.

The last several years have been full of learning, growing and forgiving. Finally, I can look into the mirror and like what I see.

I live the Twelve Steps. I am not perfect, but I work hard. I have had my ups and downs, but when I entered this program, it was like leaving a prison and walking through heaven's gate. For me, there is no turning back.

Life is so precious and dear to me today. I spent so many years numbing the pain. Now I have an entire childhood to catch up on — so much to feel, so many hearts to touch, so much left to experience.

I am grateful for who and what I am. I owe my life to God and to the Twelve Steps. I could have died. Instead, I am thriving. The gift of recovery is a beautiful, life-long journey without end.
