marissa, something else i realized by re reading the book was i needed to switch up the types of cardio i do to keep my muscles from getting used to a routine i didnt add all in that last post,its just the treadmill and the bike are my favorites, i just started mixing in the eliptical trainer, and the stair stepper these all hit your muscles from a different angle. i read in a post by teuthis, or stevekc, that you burn less calories as your weight drops, so your cardio needs to be increased, for example; a 250lb person burns about 200 to 300 cal per hour more than a 150lb person, as was explained to me by a trainer. i hope this helps. 8)
