I'm glad to see this thread. I've been contemplating what type of routine to follow? I've recently lost 25 lbs and need to lose about 40 more.
I am squandering between doing moderate weights (Gym Styles, 4 Day Spilit, Burn Sets, CTX, Pyramids or KCM Muscle Up or Weights First....then there's always Joyce). I also want to make sure I incorporate pilates and yoga into whatever I do. Sure wish I had an answer! I also want to add that I have more of an hourglass figure, and can gain muscle easy.

I have never lost weight doing heavier (for dvds) lifting. It always increases my appetite so that's a factor.
I have really broadened out in the shoulders and I really don't like the look of that, but I still prefer heavier weight workouts. I believe you can build muscle and lose fat at the same time, but I don't think it's the most efficient way to go. I still think cardio is the best way to fat loss. However, if heavy weights are what you prefer, go with heavy weights and watch your food consumption levels.
