It's so hard to get motivated to work out huh? Especially with the busy time of year and it being colder out. Thankfully in Charlotte, it's not too bad.
I can testify that they both work .i would do 3 days of aerobics and 2 days of strenghth training with 3lb weights. I was 180lbs and i lost 20lbs to weigh 160lbs. I also combined it with strict diet. I cut out white flour and food with high carbs. Unfortunately i lacked off and gained 9lbs. I started back i am losing pounds agian. it is something you have keep at.
i have been working out for 6 months and have just started weight training and i feel so good. i have not lost much since i have started using weights but my clothes fit so much better and i am feeling great. so far i have lost 43 lbs....

This is definitely an interesting article. I previously lost 25 pounds in 2 months by watching what I ate, drinking water and giving up caffeine and I felt great, but I stopped working out and went back to regular eating, and in a month I gained all the weight back. This re-inforces the idea that muscle tone is better than aerobics for long term weight loss.
I was glad to see this article again. My husband and I have been reading Dr. Bernstein's "The Diabetes Solution" and that is one of his recommendations -- resistance/strength training for diabetics who are still producing insulin (over abundance, of course).
