I could really use some help with this spare tire that just sits around my waist. I have had it nearly my whole life which is only 20 years, but it seems that I am at that age where that is a big issue. I have never been self-conscious about how I look, but would just feel better all around if I could get rid of it. I have tried many different things, but can't seem to lose it. I could use some pointers on eating habits as well as workouts. Any comments are welcome and encouraged. Please help me! Thanks a lot!

Hi Cara,
The only way to lose that "spare tire" is to lose weight in general. You cannot target particular body areas for fat loss - it does not work. There is no way to tell your body where to lose its fat.
As you lose weight in general, the fat from your waist will also gradually come off.
Weight loss always comes down to creating a caloric deficit by eating healthier and increasing your activity level. Use calculators on this site here to figure out how many calories you need to consume in order to lose weight.
Best regards,
Melanie
