I don't like running, is there anything else I can do to lose weight?

[abcd]

I was going to try cycling, but "(Silent)" (memeber of this forum) has notified me doing so, will make my weiner dysfunctional. I guess swimming is the only option left right? Which kinda sucks since I don't have a pool and the thought of having to swim in public and people seeing me with my shirt off kinda makes me wants to vomit. Although I guess I have no other choice? I might have to get a membership at a 24 hr. gym and go during late hours.

Any other ways to lose a beer belly?

Oh geez. Dont take silents advice as being for everyone (although true for a small portion on the population). The risk of injury to your reproductive system is quite slim especially for the ammount you would be doing.

My father has cycled for years and years 20 years of competitive cycling before I was born and he has fathered 7 children.

But if your hell bent on something different like swimming aqua aerobics walking rowing stairmasters crosstrainers rollerblading skateboarding theres all sorts!

Go to your local pool durning say, a lap swim, and look at all the people with less than attractive physiques.

Overcome your fear, or turn it into something more conductive.

If you don't want people to see you with your shirt off just buy a swim suit or a swim shirt.

You don't need to run or cycle or swim or do any sort of long slow cardio to loose weight and/or fat. The most effective exercise to help you loose weight and fat is resistance training. And the most effective form of resistance training is heavy compound movements with free weights. Next most effective exercise is HIIT.

Also eat less and eat right.

Try using a cross-trainer. This is a non-impact CV excercise and easy to master. It is like skiing and running, but can be done in a small room.
Look on the internet for details.
As said before, don't worry about your appearence - no one else is!!

About that cross-trainer are you referring to an eliptical? and about the appearance thing, it's not that big of deal I was exagerating, like somebody mentioned I can just get a swim shirt. I was wanting to see if anybody else had any more ideas, I think I'll go with the eliptical if the cost isn't too high or start swimming.
