In the past month I've worked myself up to running 7k per gym session 3/4 times a week from dying after 10 mins on the tredmill. I'm still finding the extra pounds hard to shift. I do a combination of sit-ups/leg lifts/squats EVERYDAY but nothing seems to be toning.

Any advice on excercises/diet tips to get rid of unwanted fat around tighs and the dreaded love handles?

Thanks
