    Calorie deficit comes first, then strength training of some kind. If you can find some activities you enjoy that happen to be physical it helps

    Consistent moderate calorie deficit.

    Resistance training on the muscles that challenge them on a consistent basis.

    Pick one that works full body. I can't really recommend what's right for you because I have no idea of your current fitness, health history, etc.

    Thanks @ninerbuff. I'm healthy and I'm in pretty good shape. Right now my goal is to maintain weight level and tone up.

    Thanks @WendyLeigh1119. I'm working on strength training 3 to 4 days a week with machines and free weights with about 30 minutes of cardio on treadmill.

    Honestly the best program is one you will stick with for the long haul. Most people are out of the gym in 3 months. Pick one of the listed and try it out. If you do not like it try a different one. Resist the urge to jump ship but don't fight to keep doing something you do not enjoy. If you really want to change your body for good you need to make diet and exercise a lifestyle change.

    Oh many women like Strong Curves. I liked Starting Strength and it works for both men and women. Same with Stronglifts 5x5.
