Very few of us women would claim to be 100 percent content with our bodies. Most of us have little pockets of flabby flesh that we would like to tone up and slim down. It would be great to be able to pop a diet pill and have everything become perfect, but this is not going to happen. The only really effective way is to do fat loss exercises regularly.

In females, fat generally congregates around our hips, thighs and bottom. There are many exercises that you can do easily at home to get rid of the fat and tone the muscle. Squats, lunges and plies are the best of the best in fat loss exercises for women.

To do a basic squat you start with your legs slightly more than shoulder length apart. Then you bend your knees as far as you can in a slow and controlled manner. You can stick your bottom out at the back a little too. To begin with you should try doing three sets of 10 and then as you strengthen the muscle you can increase the number of sets.

A fit ball is a great and inexpensive piece of exercise equipment that you can use at home. You can use a fit ball to do squat against the wall. Place the ball between your back and the wall. Gently roll down into the squatting position and then return to your standing position. If you have weak knees, this type of squat is a good way to start fat loss workout.

One of the fat loss exercises that really targets the butt is doing lunges. You do a basic lunge by starting with your toes together. Lunge forwards with your right foot until your right shin has made a 90 degree angle with your right thigh. Then step back and put your feet together. Repeat on the other foot. You should start by trying to do two sets of 10 lunges on each leg. This can place some pressure on your knee joints, so it is important that you really use your muscles to control the movement.

A great fat loss exercise that also works the abdominal muscles is to place the fit ball on the ground. Lie on your back with the feet on top of the ball. Using your arms to balance and support you raise your back off the floor like a plank. From this position bring the fit ball in towards your butt and then return it to the starting spot. This exercise is a fantastic way to tone your calves, thighs, butt and stomach muscles. Remember to keep breathing deeply even though you are tensing your abs.

Ballet plies are a fabulous way to tone the inner thighs and hip area. You do a plie by pointing your toes out and placing your heels together. Pull up your knees and thighs, pull your belly button in towards your spine, pull your shoulders back and tense your bottom muscles. This is your starting position. Keeping your body in line, bend you knees as far as you can while keeping your heels on the ground. Don't let your knees swing forwards; they must remain in line with your toes. Return to the starting stance and repeat. Start with six sets of 10.

Squats, lunges and plies are fantastic exercises to lose fat, which will shift the fat from your problem areas and leave them toned and athletic looking. These easy exercises can be done everyday and alternated for variety. If you make them part of your daily routine, you will soon experience noticeable quick weight loss and a difference in your body appearance.
