I have hit a major plateau and am thinking I need to change up my exercise. I have around 10-20lbs left to lose. I had twins a year ago this April so the only place I have any fat left to lose is in my belly. I cant afford a gym but do have a tremill, exercise ball, resistance bands, and hand weights. Any suggestions on how to get rid of these last few pounds?

    Running? Hoola hooping? Skipping with a skipping rope - this one burns heaps of cals. If you google it you can probably find a skipping program.

    Nothing beats running if you are able and it's inexpensive! Hopefully you leave somewhere that is at least starting to get warm and can get outside instead of the treadmill (who really enjoys the treadmill). If you are just starting out, a run/walk routine is good, but use a watch to time yourself so you get your heart rate up (e.g., 8 min. run, 2 min. walk, repeat).

    Good luck!!

    Try Zumba! It's fun, so it will shake up your routine and it's all ab work. Plus it's fun to shake it :) My kids attempt doing it with me, then get bored and go play.

    I agree with the 30 day shred! i was stuck at a plateau for about 6-8 weeks. I just started doing Jillian's 30 Day Shred on top of my normal workouts and along with some yardwork and beach volleyball i'm down 3lbs in 4 days! I think it's an easy addition to your day-only 22 mins start to finish. The DVD is around $10 at Walmart.
