How did you measure your body fat? invest in a caliper they are not expensive. you will measure three points on your body take that measurement three times then take an average and check the chart that came with your caliper.

if you are not strength training then I would suggest adding 1 hour 3x a week, skip a day in between. then cardio on the other days. if you still want to do cardio on your strength training days do it after you train cause the cardio depletes your muscles. pick m,w,f ot tthurs, sat for strength training, take a rest day.…

Keeping a journal of what you eat is good. You dont really think you are racking up on those calories til you see it in writing. 3500 calories= 1 pd of fat

Yep, the lower your body gets the smaller they will be, they are just fat. Some cases not so, but most people yes if you are trying to get rid of body fat. you can strength your pec muscles and it will keep them from drooping..

I am a Louisiana Gal myself, I suggest clean eating. It will help you zap those last few pounds. Invest in Oxygen Magazine and www.toscareno.com she has several books and is a product of what she teaches.:happy:

it is better than nothing, but the best route for calorie burn would be the treadmill, stair stepper, or an eliptical An eliptical is better on your joints than a treadmill. It depends on how you intensify it. I ride the staionary bike in our gym to target my quads and glutes, but i always mix that with treadmill so i can…

Yes, you have to buy a gold card membership the get the lowest price..

Have you tried shakeology from beachbody? It is loaded with nutrients that your body needs. The chocolate is good if you like dark chocolate and the new tropical is wonderful. there are different recipes for mixing. The only down side is it is a little pricey..

jullian michaels has a new series that just came out that is muscle confusion program..

what are your goals? that would be the first thing to consider in choosing a at home workout. Check out www.beachbody.com they have all fitness levels. all different types of fitness programs. I have a friend that coaches with beachbody i can send you her link if you are interested??

you have to stay focused on your goal and burn more than you take in that is basically the key. I am firm believer in clean eating.
