cut down (as said before) your carb intake. I usually keep mine between 50 to 60 carbs per meal. read the directions and count carbs. Also cut down on sugars too.

Your fat stomach is due to fat. Working the muscle underneath with crunches can only serve to increase the muscle size, and hence your stomach size. You need to diet and exercise to lose body fat if you want to see your stomach muscles. If your gut muscles are severely out of shape, yoga, planks, pilates can help pull the muscles in somewhat, but your belly will still appear fat due to surface adipose tissue.
You can't reduce fat on one specific area by exercising the muscle underneath. Body fat distribution is genetic and you need to remove fat from everywhere to get it off your gut. Have you ever seen anyone with saggy man tits but a ripped six pack? Or what about guys who bench press all day but don't diet? They don't have striations in their chest muscles along with a fat gut. Just doesn't happen.
