First of all, its hard to get a flat stomach and there isnt an easy way out, you have to have a balence of eating right and exercising.
For example, kids today eat an average of 3 snacks ontop of three regular meals every day, cut down to maybe 1 healthy snack after school, such as carrot sticks, apples, and mixed nuts. Then replace part of what you eat in your regular meals to healthy choices like vegtables and fruits. Like during breakfast maybe you could eat a meal bar and some apple slices instead of captin crunch chocolate explosion. Bring your lunch to school, the cafiteria food is filled with greese and fat. So to sum it up, eat less and change alot of what you eat to veggies and fruits. Worked for me, I was flat at 11 not that I was really trying I just dident eat as much as the other kids. As for exercise, do cruches after school, and leg rases, push yourself to a point where your not to uncofortable but you know you making progress. The next day you should feel sore in your torso, if you dont, you need to try a bit harder. Another thing you need to know is that girls ages 10 to 13 tend to have a bit of extra weight on their stomachs, its a nateral part of early puberty and some start earlyer than others, as soon as your boobies come in though it is hardly noticeable. Your smart for wanting to take action, getting the pudgy belly is a sign that your gonna have to stop eating what ever you want and start exercising. The biggest thing to motivate you is knowing you can do it if you really try and give it your best effort. Hope that helped :) PS Im only fouteen so I know what your going through.
Here's a program for the period in which you want to lose weight:
Plenty of moderate aerobic exercise, no sweetened liquids at all, and no junk food at all. Preferably no sugar. Eat 3 small-portioned meals/day; do not skip breakfast; and avoid snacks. Weigh yourself 2-3 times/week. Ignore the sensation of hunger. If you see your weight diminishing at a safe, reasonable rate (1-2 pounds/week), keep it up.
Once you've reached your target weight, increase your calories somewhat. And you can then have small amounts of sweetened foods on occasion (if at all), along with your regular foods (not instead of them). But keep checking your weight 2-3 times/week.
Avoid crash diets, diet pills etc. Avoid fatty cuts of meat. Walk as much as possible. Bicycling and swimming are good too.
More guidelines:
Don't concentrate on specific foods so much as on a balanced, healthy diet plus exercise. Plenty of moderate exercise rather than intense exercise, which can damage your joints.
Good nutrition means eating what your body needs, while ingesting as few harmful things as possible. It has also been described as getting enough of each of the major food categories (grains, fruits, vegetables, protein, dairy, etc.; plus plenty of water).
This will vary somewhat from one person to another; and I don't believe that there's any universal diet that can be prescribed for everyone. Avoid best-sellers with their perennial fads. And think twice before using any dietary supplements or weight-loss pills.
In general, one's starting point can be a menu of whole grains, whole-wheat bread, a good amount of vegetables, some fruits and nuts, fish, lean meats (in not-large amounts), and some dairy. However, this must be tweaked according to one's health, weight and other factors at the outset; and also adjusted over time, as one sees what works for him/her in particular.
Another general thing that may be said is: the less salt, the better. The less processed foods, the better. The less junk food, the better. The less sweetened drinks, the better.
Also...whenever you feel queasy, nauseous, constipated or otherwise not completely well, try to remember what you've eaten over the last several hours or the last day. This is one method of adjusting one's food habits.
Diet and exercise.
Note that attempting to reduce fat in just one part of your body at a time is likely to be disappointing.
Fat reduction works like this: When you try to lose fat through calorie-burning exercises, the reduction occurs all throughout your body. Unlike muscle-building, it cannot be specifically targeted to one region. Also, the reduction in fat will not be quickly apparent because it will not be focused on only one spot on your body. So it's helpful to have a "slowly but surely" attitude.

Plenty of moderate aerobic exercise, no sweetened liquids at all, and no junk food at all. Preferably no sugar, and as little added salt and processed foods as possible. Eat 3 small-portioned meals/day; do not skip breakfast; and avoid snacks. Limit your calories (better to consult a doctor or nutritionist concerning the amount), and weigh yourself 2-3 times/week. Ignore the sensation of hunger. If you see your weight diminishing at a safe, reasonable rate (1-2 pounds/week), keep it up.
Once you've reached your target weight, increase your calorie intake somewhat. And you can then have small amounts of sweetened foods or junk food on occasion (if at all), along with your regular foods (not instead of them). But keep checking your weight 2-3 times/week.
