TREADMILL FOR A GOOD START
The treadmill sounds like a great idea. Many people use them faithfully.  Start out small - 5 minutes a day and then keep adding on a couple of minutes, before you know it you'll be walking marathons!  

FIND OUT YOUR FAVOURITE EXERCISE
Find exercise that you enjoy doing. For example, many people enjoy walking in the beautiful outdoors, or if they don't, they make it enjoyable by listening to music or taped books, exercising with a friend, or perhaps by varying their route or the type of exercise they do.  

BURN YOUR CALORIES WITH AEROBIC
Do some types of aerobic exercise (walking, jogging, and swimming, stationary cycling, aerobic dancing, etc.) on a DAILY basis (preferably in the morning) for 30 to 60 minutes! It elevates several of your body's hormones that tell your body to burn more fat. It decreases hormones that tell your body to store fat. And, it gives your metabolism a boost and burns calories.  

TONED MUSCLE, TONED BODY
Tone your muscles with weight training three days per week. Toned muscles really boost your metabolism and cause you to burn more calories 24 hours a day.. yes, even while you're sleeping you'll be burning more calories! Toned muscles look good too!

EXERCISE IN THE MORNING BOOST YOUR ENERGY
If at all possible, exercise in the morning. When you exercise in the morning you'll be energized for the day! Also, many people find that morning exercise “regulates” their appetite for the day - that they aren't as hungry and that they make better food choices. Many people have told me that it puts them in a healthy mindset.

EXERCISE TWICE A DAY
Do an additional 15 to 30 minutes of aerobic exercise in the evening, five days per week. Some people like to do this just before their dinner meal to decrease their appetite, but after dinner is fine too. In the interest of injury prevention andnot getting bored with your exercise, try to alternate the type of exercise you do.For example, walking in the morning and cycling in the evening.

YOU CAN DO IT!
Train for a local 5k or 10k walk or run in your area or set higher goals and train to walk or run a marathon. This can be great motivation to exercise on a regular basis.

ALWAYS BE ACTIVE
Look for situations to be active. Park as far from the store as you can rather than looking for the closest parking spot. Use the stairs rather than the elevator, a rake rather than a blower, etc. Look for the difficult way to do things - the way the requires the most effort!
