Ab Ripper X… nothing can beat it.. do it for 1 month and get what you want.. guarantied!
visit this website.. sometimes it offers you to watch it for free.. or buy the cd from ebay.. it doesn’t coast too much though..

You can’t spot reduce fat. Your fat is like the water that fills a bathtub. You can’t take water out of the just the right side of the tub or just the left side of the tub; it has to come from everywhere. No matter where you scoop the water, the water line goes down everywhere.
Caloric deficit, 1 gram protein per pound of lean body mass, lift weights 2-3 days per week, and do 3-4 days of cardio (preferably in the morning before eating breakfast).

okay. in response to your edit, i changed my answer (again) to accomodate.
please excuse the length of my answer. yes, it is very irritating to have to read, but im trying to give a good answer.
so basically, you’ve got four weeks.
as general rules for the entire four weeks, do the following:
* there is a jillian michaels 14-day body cleansing thing that you take four times a day for two weeks. you should be doing that.
*monitor what you eat the entire day. make sure that you have a fruit or vegetable (fruits are better, but always keep it a mixture of both) with each meal as well as a healthy carb. you should restrict meat to dinner. you won’t die if you don’t, you can eat meat its no big deal, but if you can, limit it. and make sure that when you eat, you eat SLOWLY. try to eat until you’re content, but not full.
in the way of exercising, i have tips as well.
*like some people have said, you can only get fit if you tone down every part of your body. mainly, intense and strenuous exercises really don’t do anything helpful except build up muscle. cardio workouts, while not being as brutal, will pick up your heart rate and promote fat burn throughout your body. that, combined with the jillian michaels thing and your healthy eating will give you the weight you want. *also, she has a website where you pick your body type and how much weight you want to lose in a given time and what foods you usually crave and what exercises you like and ‘she’ (a/k/a, her company) creates a specific workout for you. i took the test and i got great advice, but i didnt sign up for the program because it costs money (only 4 dollars a week tho)
*however, if you workout every day, clearly you are a strong person. i think that you should keep it tough, but not kill yourself through workouts.
i dont know HOW strong you are or your endurance level, but heres my schedule of what i usually do (you can modify it for your ability. odds are your more in shape than i am)
WEEK 1
*monday: run a nice, quick three miler
*tuesday: run a four miler
*wednesday: take the day off running and do 600 crunches (mel b from the spice girls does it apparently and she is HOT!! so i totally thought it would work and it makes your abs amazinggg)
*thursday: go for another three miler
*friday: HARD DAY! this is the day where you do abs and the gym and stuff. go to the gym and just work every muscle in your body to its full extent using the machines. then do pushups, sit ups, side bends, crunches, planks, the thing where you keep your legs six inches off the ground for a minute, jumping jacks, side-lifts, and bicycles.
*saturday: just go for a one-miler. set a time for yourself (i.e., you think you can do it in 7 minutes) and go out and see if you’ve made your goal.
*sunday: take the day OFF! but make sure you dont eat crap
WEEK 2
*monday: buy a pilates dvd. im serious, that sh*t gets you in fantastic shape.
*tuesday: run a four miler
*wednesday: do the pilates again
*thursday: go for another three miler
*friday: HARD DAY! today, go do some sprints. sounds terrible, i know! but you wont burn it off with just distance. go do a few 100’s (sprint the length of a football field) 200’s (length and back) 400’s (roughly the perimeter of the football field) and 800’s (TWO LAPS!). do them as fast as you can with all your strength.
*saturday: just go for another one-miler. see if you can beat your time last week.
*sunday: take the day OFF! but make sure you dont eat crap
WEEK 3
*monday: run a nice, quick three miler
*tuesday: run a four miler
*wednesday: take the day off running and do 600 crunches. im serious. its amazing
*thursday: go for another three miler
*friday: HARD DAY! this is that horrible horrible day at the gym. do the machines and whatnot, then go home and do everything else. remember, its: pushups, sit ups, side bends, crunches, planks, the thing where you keep your legs six inches off the ground for a minute, jumping jacks, side-lifts, and bicycles.
*saturday: just go for a one-miler. try to lower last weeks time by a whole minute. if you can, take a day off–any day of your choice the next week, as well as…..
*sunday! the day you get to chilax! (while continueing to eat healthy)
WEEK 4
last week!
*monday: pilates!
*tuesday: run a four miler
*wednesday: do your pilates again!
*thursday: go for another three miler
*friday: HARD DAY! sprinting day (: with the usual lengths of 100’s 200’s 400’s and 800’s.
*saturday: just go for another one-miler. see if you can beat your time last week again.
*sunday: take the day off! you’re DONE!
and at that point you will be done your super intense but totally worth it workout and you will look hot!

look you can’t lose fat from one specific spot all you can do is lower your body fat and your body decides where the fat comes off from. instead of exercising on your abbs wich you probably do religiously, do cardio cause you’ll burn off calories and to lose weight you need to burn off more calories than your intaking (by – 500 cals) you have to eat right or the weight is NOT going to come off, but you have enough time probly oh and another thing don’t work out every day it’l do more damage than good go 6x a week max. good luck

first of all make your goals realistic (: this is incredibly important.
make sure you do all the simple things, walk everywhere possible etc
i have one word for you – CRUNCHES 😀
since you have four weeks why not sign up for yoga or dance class? these are really good work outs and they are super fun (: x
