How do you lose the last little bit of belly fat?
Exercise and eat just under your daily caloric needs. Don't starve or stuff yourself when you eat. There is a difference between losing weight and losing body fat.
This worked for me and revealed my six pack...
Find how many calories you burn a day by living(BMR):
66 + (6.3 x body weight in pounds) + (12.9 x height in inches) - (6.8 x age)
depending on your activity level, multiply it by one of these numbers
1.2 (no exercise / desk job)
1.375 (exercise 1-3 days a week)
1.55 (exercise 3-5 days a week)
1.725 (exercise 6-7 days a week)
1.9 (heavy exercise every day)
For me this came out to be 66 + (6.3 x 195 pounds) + (12.9 x 74 inches) - (6.8 x 20 years) = 2113
2113 x 1.375 = 2905 calories
So I eat around 2500 to 2700 calories a day (Do not eat 500+ calories under your limit or you will lose muscle, not fat. So I NEVER ate under 2400 calories).
I also eat small meals throughout the day (every few hours). Eating big meals and stuffing yourself will cause your body to store excess food/calories as fat. Starving yourself or skipping meals will cause your body to store fat because it thinks you are entering starvation and this is how it saves itself.
I exercise only once or twice a week for an hour and follow this calorie calculator and my six pack looks beast.
What exercises help train upper body muscular endurance?
Some exercises that help upper body muscular push-ups are circuit type sessions that involve around a work rate of 1-2 minutes with a rest of 30-45 seconds in between.

Does push ups help you gain weight?
Push-ups won't make much difference. They build muscle mass, but it takes more energy to maintain muscle mass, so you may actually lose weight from pushups. Or you may gain it. It won't make much difference either way, but it will help build your cardiovascular fitness. Exercises that flex the gut - situps, crunches, and walking, for instance - can increase the motility of your GI tract, which will tend to make you look and feel better. A slow GI tract can make you miserable. Pushups, though, don't flex the gut very much. Exercise doesn't have to be useless motion in order to be beneficial. Helping the old couple down the street clean out their garage, spading up a garden, carrying boxes upstairs, etc., are all good forms of exercise that accomplish other good things as well. What's more, because they involve a range of different motions, you benefit more. Why not contact a local charitable organization, and see what they need done that would give you a good workout? If nothing else, swinging a hammer on a Habitat For Humanity site will benefit both your arms and your heart.
Why hands and legs are fat for women?
We all do tend to fatten up with age, although there are interesting differences based on age and gender. Hormones drive the deposition of fat around the pelvis, buttocks, and thighs of women and the bellies of men. For women, this so-called sex-specific fat appears to be physiologically advantageous, at least during pregnancies. But it has a cosmetic down-side as well, in the form of cellulite. The potbelly, on the other hand, is a typical male form of obesity that has no known advantage and can be life threatening.
Throughout most of their lives females have a higher percentage of body fat than males. By 25 years of age, for example, healthy-weight women have almost twice the body fat that healthy-weight men have. This gender difference begins early in life. From birth up to age six, the number and size of fat cells triple in both boys and girls, resulting in a gradual, and similar, increase in body fat. But after about eight years of age, girls begin gaining fat mass at a greater rate than boys do. This increase appears to result from a lower female basal fat oxidation rate (a measure of the use of fat to fuel the body at rest), and it is accomplished by expanding fat cell size, not number. (Between six years of age and adolescent, there is little or no increase in fat cell number, for either boys or girls, in healthy-weight children. In obese children, however, the number of fat cells can increase throughout childhood.)
During the adolescent growth spurt, the rate of fat increase in girls almost doubles that of boys. It is marked by more and larger fat cells, and it is seen mostly in the gluteal-femoral area--pelvis, buttocks and thighs--and, to a much lesser extent, in the breasts. This general acceleration in body fat accumulation, particularly sex-specific fat, is attributed mostly to changes in female hormone levels. After adolescence, the accumulation of sex-specific fat more or less stops, or decreases dramatically, in healthy-weight women, and there is usually no further increase in the number of fat cells. Fat cells in males also do not tend to multiply after adolescence.
As most women know, it is more difficult to shed fat from the pelvis, buttocks and thighs than it is to trim down other areas of the body. During lactation, however, sex-specific fat cells are not so stubborn. They increase their fat-releasing activity and decrease their storage capacity, while at the same time fat storage increases in the mammary adipose tissue. This suggests that there is a physiological advantage to sex-specific fat. The fat stored around the pelvis, buttocks and thighs of women appears to act as reserve storage for the energy demands of lactation. This would seem to be particularly true for habitually undernourished females.
But this advantage brings one annoying disadvantage that many women experience: the orange-peel-look on the hips, thighs and buttocks called cellulite. Cellulite appears as body fat is gained and more of it is packed into existing cells. (Remember, new cells are not normally formed after adolescence.) These packed cells then swell and, when large enough, become visible through the skin. Adding insult to injury, as the skin gets thinner and less flexible with age, the puffed-up fat cells become even more visible. (Unfortunately, no cream, massage, vibrating machine, injection, pill, whirlpool bath, rubber pants or other gimmick will get rid of cellulite. The only help is general weight loss, with a sensible diet and regular exercise, which can reduce the effect.)
Men tend to store excess fat in the visceral, or abdominal, region. This deposit has no apparent physiological advantage. On the contrary, it is downright dangerous. A large potbelly, where waist girth begins to exceed hip girth, is strongly associated with an increased risk of coronary artery disease, diabetes, elevated triglycerides, hypertension, cancer and general overall mortality.

How does lean muscle mass raise metabolic rate?
Increasing the amount of muscle you have will raise your metabolic rate. For example, if you add ten pounds of muscle in the next year through proper strength training your body will consume an additional 350 to 500 calories daily. Muscle is your metabolic furnace that burns additional calories 24 hours a day (not just during and immediately after exercise).
How fast can you lose weight if you eat right and exercise every day?
It depends on how much you are eating and exercising. It also depends on your calorie deficit. If it's a 500 calorie deficit a day, you will lose a pound a week. If it's a 1,000 calorie deficit a day, you will lose two pounds. Add 500 to each day and you will lose an extra pound. But, it's not good to lose more than 3 pounds a week.
That sounds like something to take notice of. Does the pain continue even after you stop? Is it only certain exercises that it occurs in? If it's just when you're exercising, you might need some help on your form. Most gyms offer sessions with personal trainers who can give you tips and assistance on proper lifting. If the pain persists or gets worse, see a doctor right away.
How do you know you are losing weight by walking?

If you eat lemons eggs pickles and pistachios for 4 weeks can you loss 15 pounds?
Any diet asking you to limit your intake or eat "special foods" is a diet you should be skeptical about. Limiting yourself to just those foods will severely limit the amount of nutrients you consume.
Losing weight is all about eating less calories than you burn each day. A healthy way to do that is to eat about 500 calories less than you usually do. You can also increase your activity and burn more calories, allowing you to eat more calories. Doing that will help you lose about 1 pound per week.
When you are decreasing the amount of calories you consume, make sure you eat lots of fruits and vegetables, lean meats, whole grains, and low fat dairy products, to continue getting the vitamins and minerals you need to keep your body healthy.
