Question for the exercise-minded amongst you:
At what stage should I expect to see some result from toning exercises?
(understand that these are your standard bums and tums - sit-ups, leg lifts, squats, no weights or whatever involved)
I started five days ago, with a view to a slightly better looking thigh and stomach area by about april. Exercise regime is 40-50 mins brisk walk (with occasional bursts of jogging due to lateness) + running up and down tube and train stairs, with added fidgeting. I don't see it changing anytime soon due to current life pattern and knackeredness. Diet - vaguely healthy, plus chocolate. Also not changing that.
Current actual shape is curvy (hourglass) 5'3 shortarse, UK size 12/US size 8, weighs approx 10 stone or 140 lbs.
So... opinions?
