Exercise advice...

I'm just wondering what else, if anything, I need to be doing, exercise-wise. This whole diet/exercise thing is new to me and I'm a bit clueless. :)

Currently I walk 6 days/week. If the weather is good, I walk outside (LOTS of hills) for 30 minutes (2.1 miles). If it's raining or too cold, I walk on the treadmill, set at a slight incline, for 30-45 minutes. I really don't have time to go to the gym, but I'm willing to buy weights/exercise equipment to use at home, if necessary. We already have a bowflex and a treadmill and my husband mentioned getting me an eliptical for my birthday next month....although I'm not sure we need both a treadmill AND an eliptical??

    I would get both. The elliptical will challenge you a bit more. I think your exercise plan is good. I would def add weights though.
