What they said. I'm struggling due to a busy lifestyle and travels. In the end, it doesn't go on overnight and won't come off that way for long with "diets".
I've changed up my eating habits and choices considerably. That helped but not much. What does is what I just got through doing. 20-30 minutes of exercise in the morning and 20-30 at night.
I hate cardio...hate it...so I do about 20 minutes of slow-faster-slow fast mix ups on a tread mill, eliptical then a cardio vid. 20 minutes is all I can take from bordom and again, I hate cardio. I mix those three up during the week rotating them.
At night I usually do about 20-30 minutes of wieghts. Nothing like the muscle nuts here but enough to get a good workout in. I have four different workouts that I again, rotate.
For me it's a matter of losing some inches in the waist and building on more muscle. The latter is easier for my body type / heredity. Lots of stronger muscle types in the family including my dad, but non have the the 32" waist I had for years and am trying to get back.
