- buy a jump rope and do it at home whenever you have some time to spare.
- crunches, lunges, squats, bicep curls while you're watching tv.
- meditation or yoga in their morning and night. stretching helps with your back, and it's a great way to relieve stress.
- buy an exercise video from the firm series, along with some light dumbbells and work out with it at home regularly.
from my own experience, it usually comes down to what i eat. if i snack too much on junk throughout the day, i won't lose weight. also, when i starve myself or deprive myself of my favorites, i'll end up binging and hating myself. continue eating nutritious meals, and don't be afraid to treat yourself once in a while. just be patient, and don't give up. you're on the right track.

You may want to expand your vegetable variety. Broccoli and cauliflower are good steamed. Try eating more salads.
Consider taking up cycling again, and adding another day at the gym.
Other than that, you've made a very good start.
Good luck!

maybe get an aerobics video or record some aerobics programs from the sports channels and do those. The key to losing weight is to excercise to get your heart rate up for over 25mins a day and aerobics is the best way to do that

Hi shell- something that works for me are smoothies. I'm like you- I'm not the world's biggest fruit fan, so I bought a smoothie maker. They're gorgeous- you can throw almost any type of fruit in them, and it means you're still getting your 5 portions etc. And if you have one for breakfast, I find that you don't get hungry til lunchtime.
xx

Eat what ever you want. the key is :Portion Control.
