Buy a pedometer (they're about 3-5 dollars at wal-marts) and walk about 13,000 steps a day which is about 2.5 miles a day. :)

I don't think you need to lose weight, but toning your muscles will give you a leaner, sleeker look. Join a gym and talk to a personal trainer about weight training. He or she can set you up with a routine and show the correct techniques and proper form so as not to injure yourself.

You dont need to lose any weight, and if you gain muscle then you will in fact gain weight. Its not about the number on the scale but how your body looks. Eat lotst of protein to build muscle and drink only water - cut out sodas and sugary fruit juices

Seriously, I'm 5'8", and not even close to what you weigh. Even if I lost all the fat on my body, I still wouldn't way that much. Unless you have a very, very small bone structure, you do not need to loose any weight.

First, attempting to lose weight seems like a mistake. About your muscle, have you considered free weights? What sort of muscle do you want to work on and what do you have to work with (space in house, other resources)?

If you are 5'8" and only weigh 110, you are almost 2 pounds UNDERweight. See this link:

So just concentrate on at least maintaining your current weight, and do such muscle toning as walking, lifting barbells, general calisthenics.

You do not need to lose any wieght. you seem very skinny
because when you are 5 8 you should be weighing about 120 or something
