What to do if i have severe exercises & diet plan for muscle definition in abs and legs?

Good for you!: Go do it. Lose fat, build the ab muscles. What needs to happen is that you change your attitude toward eating -- food is fuel, and being hungry much of the day is good for you. Get sufficient quality protein (1 gm/pound/day while you're building muscle is plenty) and micronutrients from a varied diet. Resistance training (cable pulls are one choice out of many) will help more than endless crunches

Not exactly: sure what you mean, if by severe did you mean several? And are you looking for an exercise and diet plan? If so this is difficult to answer in these 400 character or less responses. Your best bet is to either consider a formal consultation through HealthTap Prime or seek the input of a certified personal traininer/nutritionist.
