How to lose weight in your hips and thighs? -

i naturally have large thighs and hips. i had surgery last friday and the whole weekend i didnt eat much, so i lost a lot a weight in that area. how do i keep it off and continue to lose weight?by the way, i exercise a LOT so i dont think its physical activity that i need. but maybe tips on what kinds of exercises. i usually run a couple miles (on flat ground becuase i heard it helps), do a couple hundred crunches.

One thing that works for me is: before I eat, I drink a large glass of water, then if I m still hungry, I won t eat as much as I would have.It s better to eat 5-6 small meals than 2 or 3 regular meals each day.also, fyi:1 pound = 3500 calories.If you burn more calories than you eat, you will lose weight.ie, if you eat 2000 calories per day and burn 2500, you will lose 1 pound every week.the average person burns 1000-1500 calories per day, just being alive.power walking can burn 200-500 calories per hour.exercise bike can burn 200-600 calories per hour.swimming can burn 100-800 calories per hour.jogging/running can burn 300-1200 calories per hour.Also, try not to eat within 3-4 hours of going to sleep.*********VERY IMPORTANT************when trying to lose weight, very important to drink lots and lots of water ! ! ! You should drink at least 10 glasses per day, like 1 glass every hour !This helps your body get rid of the fat when you are burning calories.

run long distances 5miles and up
