Is anyone using Pilates?

[Pin Wizard]

I have a couple Pilates tapes I bought yesterday and one DVD. I haven't used them yet. VCR/DVD problems. My sister has been using them for some time and has dropped 30 pounds! Does anyone use them and what's your success with them?

I LOVE pilates! I've been on Atkins since July 18 and started pilates October 1st. I still weigh about 15 lbs more than I did 10 years ago, but my measurements are all smaller now. It's really helped slim my hips and thighs. That used to be where my pants were tight, but now they are always roomy there.

My favorite pilates tape is Denise Austin Pilates for Everybody. It's 40 minutes. I like Pilates for Dummies, but it's only 20 minutes.

Some of the moves are tough at first, but just do the best you can. You'll notice they they get easier and easier as you get stronger and stronger.

Thanks so much, Lisa. I'm glad to hear it!
