There's no pat answer to that one. Depending on how intense your workout is, your weight may or not change, and it might go up or down. Assuming you get into a really quality workout, pitch the scale (or at least don't get fixated on it) and pay attention to the mirror and how your clothes fit. Everyone has to tweak their food intake occasionally depending on their goals.

ok thanks! I never have worried with a scale, the only reason I know my weight is cause of a doctors appt. I went to last week. I really dont want to lose any weight. And I am trying to get into a quality workout but im not sure what to do. I run 1 1/2 mile every night and then do 15 crunches when I get home but I know I need to do more

LOL You'll fit right in here mrsextreme. Here's a link to the resource guide for thighs and glutes to get you started anyway.
