I do one 50 min strength workout and at least one 50 min cardio work out everyday usually 2 , except Saturday and Sunday I just do 1 50 min cardio work out each day. I eat back my exercise calories and I have lost 70 Lbs and this has worked for me, but everyone is different.

I typically average about 1000 burn calories a day and yes I eat those calories back! I have lost 65 lbs so this seems to be working for me. I am now within 10 lbs of my goal weight.

I am 5'3 SW 198 CW135 . I have been at this weight for awhile and have toned up and went down another pants size so my goal weight is not much of a factor anymore.
