Here are a few good ways of toning up your arms:

Crossovers: Punch across your body and parallel to the floor

Uppercuts: Punch up toward your jaw with the underside of your fists facing the ceiling

Hooks: Punch across your body in a hooking motion, parallel to the floor, as if you were trying to hit someone on the side of the jaw

Arm circles: Hold your arms out either side of you so you body is a T shape, Begin by making small circles in a clockwise motion. Keep arms strong and firm. Do as many as you can in one direction, then reverse and go counter clockwise.

Well I don't think its nice that people are telling you you're overweight. You know what you look like, you don't need some outside person telling you about yourself. Anyways, I think you are doing a great job on your diet. Congrats on your progress so far

-Pushups help

-Use dumbbells to do those curls

-Use dumbbells. hold the dumbbells with your arms at your sides. then bring them out slowly by raising your arms to shoulder level. Then take them back

If your have the time and dedication I would go for the P90X program. You can find it online. You will work out every day of the week (some days just stretching) about 1 hour to 1.5 hours. If you stay with it, in 90 days you'll love how you look and feel. You don't need anything but small dumbbells and a chin up bar.

First off congratulations! You should be so proud. I'm probably not the best to answer this question. But, I have a question of my own. How did you manage to slim down so much?

  Well I worked at a camp at the start of the year so I got used to a lot of walking around. we only drank water and the food was vegetarian (sorry my spelling sucks...) I drank soda once a week well for me on sundays. so when I got home I tried the same doing the same thing. I was on a diet before so I just tried eating at 9:00 , 1:00 and 6:00. I walk for about 40 min each night (around 8:00) and I would streach and use a bike for about a hour every other day. I never had seconds. hope this helps

  No offense to her, but I think at 5'7 that may be overweight. not heavily overweight but she may have 20-30 lbs to lose
