i don't have access to the gym and where i live it almost rains all year round so running outside is not exactly an option... is there any thing i could do in the comfort of my room that would act as a good workout? i'm 5,4 150 lbs (i know ... sooo out of shape) the fat is focused on my midriff and butt and upper thighs. basically i'm what you'd call pear-shaped... also i need to change my eating habits. i basically eat anything that's ready in the fridge or chocolate bars on my way to class from a nearby gas station.... no one cooks and i hate the kitchen and cooking and doing dishes....
If you can not go jogging in your house you can do jumping jacks, crunches and work your ab muscles, you can try doing pushups, and different exercises to work different muscles.

If yes, start by using whichever of these you have for 15 minutes a day. Then gradually increase the time you use it by 2 mintues each day. If you do not have one of these put on some music and dance for 20 minutes a day and gradually increase.
After you start losing some fat you can tone you muscle. Visit this website: [Link](Mouse over link to see full location)
