    When I was more active, strength training gave me the best results. I took a class three days a week that provided atotal body workout and three days a week of cardio including walking and the elliptical.

    Last month I did JM's 30 D S in addition to some cardio routines at my local gym. I had noticable results within a couple of weeks and lost about 8lbs at the end. So far it's been my favorite, esp. since I was never a dvd workout type of person. I'm currently doing JM's ripped in 30 until the end of April, and I'm adding spinning classes to the mix once a week starting tomorrow.

    I try to work out 3 to 4 days a week. I switch it up each time. This past week I focused on strength training for about 45 minutes with 60 to 120 second cardio bursts between every 2 sets. Then I wrap up with another 15 minutes of pure cardio. On days I don't do strength training, I will normally walk/jog a couple miles or hop on the elliptical for about an hour.

    I do intervals ~3 days a week for 20-30 minutes (I might replace one of those intervals sessions with a slightly longer steady state workout)
    Strength training circuit for 3 days a week for 20-30 minutes (I pick 5-10 exercises and do all of the exercises in a row, with no break and them repeat 2-3 times)
    Yoga 1X a week for 15-20 minutes

    I've been doing this for the past 2 months and I've lost ~16 pounds and 2 inches each in my waist, hips and thighs

    I do long distance walking because I have time. I do 2-3 long distance walks a week and 2-3 one hour walks a week. I also do the elliptical machine and I'm starting with intervals.

    A boot camp class I took 3x a week gave me the best results ... plus the high protein diet I was on.

    Lately I've been doing a cardio kickboxing class 2x a week and a boot camp class 2x a week. My diet is what seems to be the problem though ...sigh
