hey guys ,,, im new to the site and was told that i could find some help here :),, i know this sounds stupid , but here i am , i wanna lose around 5-8 lbs...and i dont even have a clue were to start..... i started watching what i ate, and how Much I ate...but i seem to be gaining weight more than losing it!

i use to be on the swim team (years ago haha) and i was fit but bulky ,, and now i dont have a close gym near me or swimming pool so i need to find something to do at the house...i dont really want to Bulk up per say....more like the long...lean tones kind-of way...... im not sure what exercises will help you get there (specifically my stomach , legs and butt)...i have this CORE workout video ...the one with the giant ball but i dont know if that will let me lose that stubburn poof i have on my stomach and legs, just by itself (ive been doing that for 4 wks now and dont even feel or see a thing different ..i know it takes time but my friend did it and in two weeks she was already looking a bit different )!

i was thinking about running ...but im in a not so good area right now until we move....

any ideas?? sry for the long thread

I like mary windsore's pilates videos. Cindy Crawford's Next challenge... is a real challenge... lol... Eating? I'd recommend, vegetables, vegetables and lean protein. Try to eat first a salad (WATCH THE DRESSING!) and then whatever you want. Eating slowly helps me loads.

hope this helps.
Lo

i'm doing the 30day shred=--- i like it---but i also havent seen much of a difference when everyone else on here is saying that they have--- but i guess its something-- i also just started working out

i would try gettting dvds from the library and see which ones you like before you purchase and stick to them--- i tried out a bunch -- and i like the biggest loser ones and the walk away the pounds ones

I love the Firm videos. They give me the cardio and make me sweat, plus the light weight work to help me build lean muscles.

If you could find something like that which incorporates cardio work and light weights, I think that would be great for losing a few pounds and getting leaner.
