Someone else said it elsewhere, but I'm stealing it anyway. Abs are made in the kitchen.

SunnyInc is right. There is no such thing as spot reduction. Some people believe that it can be done. But usually what is going on is the muscle is tightening up underneath.

Cardio once a week is not going to do it. I would suggest she up it to three times a week, 30 minutes minimum. Also, cut the refined carbs, that's bread, pasta, white rice and so on. Her carbs should be coming from clean veggies, low or no fat yogurt, fruit, brown rice and oatmeal. You said she eats a lot of eggs, have her cut the number of yokes. When I eat eggs, it is usually six, 1 whole egg to 2 yokes only. Scramble dry, not fried in butter.

Instead of adding reps to her deads, add 10-15% more weight. Careful with the number of reps, less can be more.
