And remember, the type of exercise is important too. People always assume that "target heart rate" is the key to exercise. Things like cardio, aerobics, and crap like that. But what happens? Many people end up getting fatter because their body makes up for all the effort by wanting to move even less the next day, and eat even more. Or they just give up because it is fucking boring as hell, and tiring. Generally, it's a waste of time.

If you really want to lose fat, you need to exercise the right way. And that means resistance training. Look up "metabolic resistance training" (I believe that's what some trainers are calling it) and find a program to follow. Add on HIIT, and your fat will melt away.
