How are you moving to lose?

Me, I go to the gym 5 days a week, like so:

-hour long bellydancing class (GREAT workout, I'm sweating and my core is sore after this class!)

-hour long Aqua Fit class.....water aerobics is a pretty intense workout! Plus there is something about exercising in water that calms me on the inside. 

Then, 3x a week I do weight training for a half hour followed by a half hour of cardio (elliptical).   One day I do upper, another day lower, and one day a little of both.  One of those weight training sessions per week I do with my trainer (we vary upper and lower every other week). 

I'm really enjoying going to the gym, and it's working, I'm down 2 sizes :D

~~~

How about you?  What are you doing?  Are you enjoying it?  Is it working well for you?

I do about 30-40 of cardio 3-4 times a week, with weight training in between.  (Either upper or lower body depending on the day)  And I try to do yoga 1-2 times a week.  It's sometimes SO hard to motivate myself to go, but it's SO worth it!  :)

I'm up to level 2 of Jillian Michael's 30 day shred.  I do this 6 days a week, I also swim once a week for an hour, have a Pilates class for an hour and sneak in a long walk whenever I can.

my routine has been a bit all over the place, but i've had a pretty good week so i'm going to try and stick with this schedule:

monday @ the gym - 30 mins of strength + abs, 40 mins cardio on elliptical

tuesday @ the park - brisk walk around the perimeter with hand weights. (did 2 laps but will try to do 2 more laps next week. that would add up to 3 miles)

wednesday - off day

thursday - 60 minute salsa class

friday @ the gym - 30 mins of strength + abs, 40 mins of cardio

saturday - not sure what we'll do yet. either go for a bike ride, walk around the park or stick to the gym

sunday - day of rest!

before the wedding, i had a similar schedule plus the 30 day shred 5 times a week. i might try to do that again.

Some of the girls on the main forum suggest the Jillian Michaels' workout dvds.  And they are achieving phenomenal results, some even lost 7 lbs in one week with one of her workouts!  I think I'm going to try those, then maybe go to the gym a couple of times a week (I hate the gym, its such a chore) and when I get really confident, I'm going to hire a personal trainer!

i run 3 miles 4 times a week, sometimes ill add a mile or two on the bike. i really think i need to start doing some weight training, or maybe the 30 day shred?

i got really great results from doing jillian michaels' 30 day shred. didn't lose 7lbs in a week by any means, but i was losing an average of 1/2 inch from my waist every week, got my arms nice and toned, and really improved my strength and endurance (was finally able to do "real" pushups as opposed to "girl" pushups!). i started to get a little bored of it after weeks and weeks, but the results really are worth it.... i think i just convinced myself to start doing it again!

i <3 working out... i go at least 5 times a week and work out with weights for an hour and then i do cardio for 30 min!

Finally got back to working out after a year long break due to family health issues.  But I'm starting to see progress!

monday - treadmill, eliptical, and free weights

tuesday - bellydancing, vinyasa yoga

wednesday -shadowboxing and ab class

thursday - lift (weights and steps class), and zumba

friday - bellydancing and treadmill

if i skip any of these days, i make it up on a saturday or sunday
