Is it ok to do the same thing every day?

Topic pretty much says it all, is it ok to do the same thing at the gym everyday, or should I be switching up my routine.
Usually, I do some kind of elliptical everyday, then the stair master, and then either a bike, or free weights. Is it more effective if I change it up more? Say, work in a treadmill or something?

It is definitely more effective if you change it up more. You will lose weight doing these things at first, but doing the same thing will get you to a plateau fairly quickly. (Not to mention the fact that it gets super boring!) I'm not a gym type person, Im a workout DVD junkie. But it works the same way no matter what method you chose. You have to change it up!0

Yes switch it up! One day do a cardio machine another stick to weights and another take a dance class,etc that way you are always using different muscles!0
