sav's troubles (Need Advice)

I am on the 12 week mass program and the abs program. When I first started working out a year ago, I had skinny arms, a round paunch for a stomach, and some unsightly fat on my chest.Most of this has disappeared. The Freetrainers program helped and I now have nice ig shoulders, neck, back, and upper chest, and my arms are much bigger. However, there is still some fat on the lower and side sections of my chest and I just don't seem to be able to get rid of it(Same goes for this ring of fat around my waist). I eat healthy and do cardio and lift, so why doesn't it go away? Here is my cardio routine: I do the mass program when it is required and I eat less than 30 grams of fat a day. Monday: Run for 20-30 minutes Tuesday: Run for 20-30 minutes Wednesday: Play Basketball Thursday: Run for 20-30 minutes Friday: Play ball Saturday; Run maybe every other week for 20-30 minutes Sunday: Sit on my butt What am I doing wrong, and why do I have these nasty spots on me? Also, when you guys lift, how long does it take you to get visible results? I know this post is long, but I would really appreciate some advice

I eat fruits for breakfast, about 10 grams of fat for lunch with food I prepare by myself. My dinner I think it is healthy (I haven't eaten fast food for a looonnng time). Since I'm at home for the summer before I go back to college, my mom cooks a lot. She says her food is healthy, and I try to make it healthy (e.g. no butter on the bread), but I am not so sure about her cooking (I'm Indian, by the way, and so is my mom). I have one day a week where I am sort of forced to eat something unhealthy, because I'm with someone or some various reason. I have tried to improve my diet, but maybe it hasn't been long enough.
