pilates is good for your stabilizer muscles and is great for your joints and tendons but i would recommend a good cardio workout after for about 25 minutes. and the fat will just diminish. cardio=running, swimming, walking up and down stairs in your house.

Probably pilates, it works you harder but yoga will keep your flexibility better… maybe you should do both! But if you only want to do one, I would do pilates and then if you don’t want to loose some flexibilty, stretch at home a little bit.

I have just started and have heard really good things about pilates, one girl said she saw some slight results in 5 days after doing a 10 min pilates routine.

unfotunately a workout is more important to keep changes… your diet is the most important part for making changes. i think that if you are in touch with your body though, you can sence some changes after a few days of doing what you are supposed to when you have not been previously. other people will not notice for closer to two weeks usually… longer if you aren’t eating right. pilates is great though… good luck!
