Interval training on the treadmill. If you google it you can get some good shake up routines

More exercise, for sure! Are you able to do whatever you need to or do you just like certain things?

Add resistance training to your routine. Building muscle helps you burn more calories.

Eat like a bodybuilder. Small meals, every 2-3 hours (so 5-6 meals a day) with a good balance of protein, carbohydrate and essential fatty acids at every meal.

If you overdo on the cardio when you're trying to lose weight your body thinks it is in stress mode and hangs on to fat, just in case. Moderate intensity will do.

Add resistance training to your routine. Building muscle helps you burn more calories. (did I say that already?) I think there is a common misconception out there about just HOW important this is for one's overall fitness. You won't turn into a Jay Cutler monster or look mannish, you don't have enough testosterone for that. For that matter, neither does Jay Cutler (supplements it artificially).

If it is in your budget, talk to a trainer to get you safely started on some routines that are designed for your level of fitness and your weight loss goals.

Have you tried swimming? I am not sure what the weather is like in your area, but many cities have community pools that offer open swim.

Another idea is to look into what kind of fitness classes your city offers... I found a great bootcamp class that is twice a week for 8 weeks in an outdoor park and I LOVED it. She was a black belt in karate and I absolutely loved the workouts we got. Usually classes through community centers or the city are not too pricey, so depending on where you live that is something to look into.

Best of luck to you! :)

Another idea is to increase your water intake. That has helped me in the past when I needed to shake things up. I am personally very forgetful when it comes to getting my water down, so I literally had to make it a DS goal to get my water in every day. ;)

I recently started doing what is probably called interval training on the stationary bike. I ride moderately fast for 2 minutes then peddle a lot faster for a minute straight. I repeate this pattern on 2 minutes slower pace 1 minute fast pass over the duration of my cardio. its awesome!

Hey everyone, thanx for the great advice. Looks like interval training is the way to go, will give it a try asap!

I too like interval training. Shape magazine has a really good routine involving running and increasing the incline. Of course the exact routine is in my desk at work. LOL

What I've started doing recently is a sort of interval training. I do a 2 minute warm up walk on the treadmill at about 3.7 mph, then I jog slowly for 2 minutes, then I jog fast for 2-3 minutes (my fast is 6.5 mph -- i'm really tiny LOL), then reduce the speed to a slow jog for 2 minutes. It blasts calories.

Weight training is also good to get over a plateau. I'm always short on time, so I try to combine exercises. for example, squats with a shoulder press. Jillian Michaels has some really good 25 minute strength training circuit routines - it uses light (3-5 pound) weights and high reps. I highly recommend it!

Try swimming, hinking, rock climbing, jumping on a trampeline, dancing. There is also a DVD called turbo jam. you might want to check it out. I dont have the money let alone I am to young to buy it online but here is the link...
