    If you add cardio & a good diet with pilates you will definitely see a difference.

    If your schedule will allow it fill in the days that you don't do Pilates with your cardio anywhere from 20 to 30 minutes of walking, treadmill, reclined bike, etc. Give yourself a days rest (Sunday?) in your schedule but you could also take that days rest for some light free weights that you can buy and have at home.

    My 22 yo daughter does Pilates 2 times a week, and has noticed a huge difference in her muscle tone, especially her legs and stomach. Seeing her results makes me want to go to class with her, but I can't because of medical restrictions.

    well thast really cool, I will add cardio along with my pilates. As the teacher told me taht pilates helps loose inches and tones you up, and my dr told inches are more important than the number on the scale
