I wanna lose those two inches on my lower gut (read belly), I've dropped booze, I've dropped the Kcals, and I've dropped good meals. It don't work! I reckon you gotta find the right excersise. Which I have tried to find, without paying £££, to no success.

People, pls post success stories (with outlines) as it gives us people encouragement.
The only way your abs will show is with a low BF%. To get that, you need to start doing more cardio. Oh... to answer your question about leg lifts, here is how you do them:

Lying Leg Raises
Firstly ensure that your legs are slightly bent throughout this exercise.
• Lie on your back with your hands, palms down under your buttocks.
• Raise your legs about 12 inches off the floor and hold them there.
• Make sure the base of your spine is pressed against the floor (this will ensure that your back has the correct support).
• Now trying to use just your lower abs, tilt your pelvis and raise your legs a further 6 inches.
• Hold for a few seconds then return to your original position.
• Keep going with this exercise until you can feel it in your abs.
