[quote=Anonymous]I joined Orange Theory two years ago. I went 2-3 times a week, felt strong, ran faster than I had ever run in my life. I was also hungry all the time and apparently are a lot more because I slowly gained weight. Not just muscle weight, but I got bigger and frankly not that toned despite the heavy weights and plenty of cardio.

For budget reasons I had to quit going and then I got sick and couldn’t exercise for 2 months and then I just didn’t pick it back up besides the occasional yoga video.

So now I’m down 5 pounds, I’m not ravenous all the time, which feels good. I’m fitting into old clothes better, and I’m getting compliments on “looking great”

Such an odd feeling since I’m not exercising! I eat the same foods as before (generally quite healthy) just much much less.

Here’s the thing, I do want to get back to exercise but I don’t want to gain the weight back. I know in the long run it’s healthier to exercise than not. I don’t have the money to join a gym.

What would you suggest I do and how often?[/quote]
