Will I lose weight?

I am eating in the high point range of ww for the last few days!!! 18-23 points and I have eating 23 points..... I have been exercising though every day for 30 minutes on the Elliptical machine. My keister feels a little more toned.... Will I still lose weight even with the amount I am eating?

Ok, give us a lifting routine, girls.

I do cardio right now and they throw in some free weight routines, but I want to get started with a real routine focusing more on the lifting. just to tone up a bit

Edited to add, nothing too heavy, 5lbs is it for me


Advice from the experts ?

Yes, you do burn more calories lifting.
If you are just starting out, you may want to use a lighter weight, and do more reps.
It depends what you are looking for.
Then you will increase your weights, and do less reps, that is if you are looking to tone.
I have to get myself back into lifting weights.

FYI...when I lost weight on WW...the range was 18-25...but 20 min of exercise was mandatory each day...so I ate my 25 points...and lost weight or maintained every week...but I probably did 40-60 min of cardio a day...

lifting is helpful as well...

also look at the type of foods you are eating...the weeks when I didn't lose - it was usually b/c I didn't eat enought protein or veggies...etc...
