I gotta say that your drawings are very creative and I probably would do only stick figures at best.
I do have somewhat the same problems as you and what I'm doing is
cardio exercises like the elliptical and
treadmill. Then I use the gyms weight machines for upper/lower
body exercises. However, when I can't get to the
gym for those machines, what I do at home: jump rope, walk back and forth my steps and jog/walk around the neighborhood. I do a quick burst of jumping jacks, push-ups,
abs, squats then repeat for more of a variety combo
cardio. Then I lift free
weights and I do practically anything that I can think of with the
weights for upper/lower
body. I have an exercise band and I use that too but not too often. I have ondemand so I follow exercise routines there plus youtube videos.
I'm am eating machine so this pretty much cancels my hard work, but one day, I'll learn to have better portion control and will reach my target weight.
