Why buy it when you can make it... http://archive.armytimes.com/article/20110131/OFFDUTY03/101310303/Do-yourself-gym

Swim.

I drink a carbonated water when I get a craving, or green tea, no sugar, and that helps. If I really want to chew on something, celery, dill pickles, baby bell peppers, cucumbers, or carrots get me by. Also, I've just had to realize what I used to consider full was actually stuffed.

Start dancing right now, I go out at least twice a week to swing or country dance. it's a great way to burn calories and a lot more fun than the gym.

You did all that in 30 days? That's great, keep it up. As you build muscle you'll burn more calories and you ought to see even more results.

If you take in too few calories you're body will start to store fat because it thinks you're starving. Don't get too extreme on the diet. Keep up the exercise, and make sure you're lifting weights. Lean muscle mass is what burns calories and increases your resting metabolism. Hang in there!

Hit the weights, more muscle means higher resting metabolic rate. Don't worry about bulking up, unless you design a program to cause that you'll be fine. Nothing feels better than watching the tone come back as the fat goes away. A couple of simple basic weight exercises that use big muscles are squats and dead lifts.…

If you can lose 12 lbs and 5 inches in 6 weeks you'll be pants shopping before you know it. I bet the ones you're in already feel different. You look great, don't give up!
