Hey there!.
So I read your E-mail, and I decided to reply here!. Just keep in mind that you shouldn't keep your expectations so high!. It depends on your initial weight and height!
How!?
1!. Wake up early, and drink a glass - small bottle of cold water on an empty stomach, this will cause your body to increase your core body temperature, and therefore burning calories!.
2!. Once you've had your cold water, wait for about 30 - 50 minutes before you have breakfast!. I recommend you have a bowl of Special K cereal with skimmed (no fat!) milk!.
3!. Exercise!! It is the most important factor overall! For weight loss, you need to perform cardio!. Also, I suggest you work out in the morning, you get more energized, just wait about 1 - 2 hours before your work out after breakfast!. Walk at a fast pace for about 30 minutes, as a warm up!. Then keep on running as fast as you can, and when you get tired, walk until you're able to run again!. Repeat this routine until you've worked out another 30 minutes!.This is called cardio interval training!. Studies have shown that people who perform interval training twice a week (in addition to two other days of lower intensity cardio) lose twice as much weight as those who do just a moderate cardio workout!. Once you're done with that, use an Elliptical Trainer / Cross-Trainer: these machines are fun-to-use and easy-to-use!. I enjoy working out on these!. Perform sit-ups before you go to bed!.
4!. You must have lunch! But reduce the amount of food you normally eat, it will be easier if you use a smaller plate!.
5!. Stay away from fried food, junk food, greasy food, candy, sweets, chocolates, potato chips, and sodas!.
6!. Have a cup of green tea, without adding any sugar!. It's been proven that green tea stimulates your metabolism, and helps you burn more calories!. I suggest you have that 2-3 hours after lunch time!.
7!. Try to engage in reading rather than watching T!.V!., researches have shown that you burn 19% more calories reading, than watching T!.V!.
8!. Drink alot of water!
9!. Have 5-6 smaller meals rather than 3 large meals!.
10!. Snack on healthy food such as veggies, fruits, and/or nuts!
11!. Try not to eat past 7 P!.M!., or wait 3 hours to sleep after having a meal in the evening!.
12!. Just remember, that fat and carbohydrates aren't bad for you, you just need to lower the quantity you intake, and you could do that by following step number 5!.
I assure you results if you follow this!.
I hope I've helped!.
Good luck!

I may not be able to help with the "really fast!" part, because trimming down, no matter where, usually takes at least SOME time!. But what you are talking about is probably your obliques or what are commonly known as "love handles"
You can trim those down by changing up your sit ups/crunches!. Instead of just straight up/down, try lifting your upper body off the floor and using those muscles to take your torso in circles!. Keep going, then swtich directions!.
Also, the bicycle ones will help with sides!. Do this by getting in the normal sit up position, with your arms behind your head and lifting both your upper body a few inches off the ground, as well as your hips!. Go up, and start by curling up so your left elbow touches (or nearly touches) your right knee!. Then your right elbow to your left knee, and so on!.
You can also try isolations!. You stand up with your back straight (posture is importnat) and move only your torso from side to side!. It will take practice to isolate those muscles and not move your hips at all, but once you can, you will get better at it and feel it more!. Then you can also try taking your torso in a full circle!. It works quite well in toning your whole stomache!. They use that a lot in belly dance!.
Be sure to include cardio to your workout, though so you're burning fat as well as toning!.
