In my journey, I have achieved a 60+ lb loss, and I'm exercising with some regularity. However, I think I am (more than) ready to start toning up my bod, hopefully to get rid of the "wingspan," thin the thighs and flatten the belly pooch. I've been doing cardio mostly (elliptical, walking) and some arms weight resistance machines to add a little muscle. Can anyone give me some recommendations? I'm SO ready to firm up!!

Good topic, I will be interested too. I have a ways to go though before I want to do this.

Pilates. Great for toning the core quickly and it's quite enjoyable.

I'm in the same boat... it depends on what you want to tone up. I tried doing it on my own but there are so many diferent exercises and routine's out there, that it's hard to know what to do and where to start. My plan is to start seeing a personal trainer in a few weeks. There is a bit of a cost to it, but I figure I'll start with 10 sessions or so. That should be enough to get me into a routine that's been designed for me and my goals and help me with the proper execution of the workout.
