Bree as a former runner my first thought was to start doing tons of cardio in the begining. The more research I do though the more I see that weight training will gige you more bang for your effort. Currently I am doing both but if I had to choose one for weight loss it would be the weight training. The main reason for this is simple the more muscle you have the more fat you will burn...all the time. So if you add muscle you will be burning more fat 24-7. I was never into lifting...ever, but now I see what it can do. I have been weight training for the last six weeks and I see a big diference. I have lost weight in this time as well as built some visable muscle...and who does'nt want that? Not to say that I am bulking up because I am not but I am seeing definition where I used to see nothing.

I still like the cardio but I am using the weights as a fat burning tool. I will probably just run when I reach my goal weight but for now you could'nt get me away from the weights.

Good luck and stich with it and you will look great on your wedding day!

Congratulations as well!!!
