    Impossible. You must hire a $50 an hour trainer, participate in group classes, and eat diet food.

    Or not.

    I'm going with the "or not" option. But thanks for the chuckle.

    Loads of stuff you can do

    Walk (60 min walk everyday is not hard to fit in)
    Run
    Skip
    Home dvd workouts
    Weight bench/Weights
    punch bag
    Etc...



    And of course cut calories and sort your diet out.

    Yeah. Its called eating healthy.. you don't lose weight in the gym, you tone or build.

    I lost some weight without exercising, then I read Convict Conditioning, started the program, and am losing more weight and feeling stronger at the same time.

    Much of what has already been stated (calorie deficit is the crucial element here, not whether or not you join a gym), but also get moving for your health. I love my Total Gym for toning the muscles, but if you haven't the space for this equipment there are a zillion DVDs out there (everything from walking in place to hard core "knock-you-down" workouts. Find something you like to do (hiking, dancing, hand weights, et cetera). For me, it was finding something I enjoyed (or at least don't hate) and keeping it as simple as possible to ensure I stick with it - that's the other crucial point - don't quit. If plan A doesn't work for you, move to plan B or plan C...just don't give up. Good luck on your journey!

    Its mainly because i am lazy :p
    Though i will try to change that in the coming months.
    No medical reasons whatsoever for not exercising.

    Don't try. You'll fail. Just do it. Do it if you're lazy, do it if you're tired, do it when you don't feel like doing it. Do it when your motivation is gone, do it when you'd rather sit on the couch and eat, do it because you're determined to change your life, your health, your body. :flowerforyou:

    Weight is about calories in vs calorie out. Eat less than you burn and you'll lose weight with or without exercise. Exercise helps with fitness and strength.

    And then if you want to exercise you can put shoes on and walk outside.
    +1 for both
