beth asked:

I'm new at this whole working out thing, because I've never really needed to lose weight before, I've always been pretty small. Well since I've graduated high school & college, the pounds are beginning to pile on and I want to lose weight. I have a treadmill, but I dont know how far I should walk on it each day or at what speed to get an effective workout and drop pounds fast. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated. Thanks!

I recently bought a new treadmill and I have done it for maybe 2 weeks and I've noticed my calves look bigger. I jog/walk several days a week and do it either 30 minutes (or less) and an hour to maxi um. Could it be bulking my legs up? Any ways to get them skinnier? I've heard pilates is good?
