Eeek! I'm engaged!
I've lost 20 pounds in the past 4 months through diet changes and mostly walking and stationary bike riding.
Our wedding is in February (short engagement, I know)
I'm not looking for a quick fix but what would be some good exercises to produce some better results?
I have a heavy bag and am going to start boxing again. I also have lots of JM DVDs and the insanity DVDs.
Thanks!

    Congratulations!

    Weight loss comes from a calorie deficit. Do the exercises you enjoy, but make sure you're eating less than you burn by logging your food as accurately as possible.

    My extreme logging has what's helped me be successful thus far.
    I know 20 pounds in 4 months isn't a super fast pace but I've previously lost 80 pounds but I did it all wrong and lost it in 4 months and then gained it all back.
    I guess I'll just keep doing what I'm doing and maybe kick the workouts up a notch.
    I go dress shopping on Thursday and am nervous.
