Need help picking the right exercise for me

Hello all,

New member here, time for this whole weight situation to get owned!

A little background about myself. I used to be a fat kid till about 14, my first love, dropped it all but I never had that flat stomach.

In this last decade, it's been on and off diets because I have one problem that I can't solve. If you see me with a shirt on, you'd beg me not to lose anymore weight, but If I take my shirt off, you'll see my problem: flabby stomach and big fat hips! This sucks for a man, skinny all around, muscular arms, nice legs, but huge fat hips. I've tried it all, like hip exercises, ab workouts, but nothing seemed to work. I go on 3 month diets, not 1 change, then I get pissed and eat and gain weight again. It's been this vicious cycle for a decade now, because of those damn hips.

Well, no more, part of my 2014 resolution is to stop smoking (successful 14 days) and get rid of those hips. I have the worst type of genetics, body wise, so I can never allow myself to get fat since it all goes to the wrong areas. I want to do this once and for all with your help, kinda like reset my body, then start bulking up again.

I have tried different diets which never worked but I never tried the low carbs high protein diet, which is what I will be doing now. I've read alot of stuff and they say that working out in the morning at an empty stomach is the best, so I will be waking up early to get an hour in 6 days a week minimum, possibly 7 when I'm in the zone. Since you now kinda know my situation, and the fact that I have saggy/flabby fat, which kinda feels like water, I need your help picking out the right sport that will attack my problems.

Which is it?

1- 1 hour walk - some folks are saying that walking at a good pace attacks the fat
2- 30 minute run - some folks say that I won't risk losing muscle if I run under 45 minutes
3- 30 minute rope jump - I've mastered the rope jump technique and seems like my whole body gets affected by it
4- 30-45 minute of one of those insanity programs or freeltics

The reason why I've come for help is because I really want to close this chapter of my life and never look back. I'm not looking to be Hercules nor I'm looking to be Cristiano Ronaldo. I want to be normal, I want them gone! For someone just trying to be normal, 10 years of dieting and BS is a bit much. So I want to do this once and for all and do it right!

Please if you have anything to add, like a diet trick, or possibly another exercise that I should do, please feel free to do so. I will be taking a photo of myself on a weekly basis and hopefully will post back here with some great progress. I don't have a goal weight, I'm thinking of this differently, I have a 6 months goal to push myself to the max for 6 months, then bulk up for the next 6 months finishing up 2014 nicely.

Thanks in advance!
