    The best quick workout I can advise is Jillian Michaels 30 Day Shred. It is about 25 minutes long (with warm-up and cool-down included) and it is INTENSE!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm only on day 7, but she's kicking my butt! I haven't done any additional measurements, as I am waiting until the end of the 30 days, but I feel great. And I feel like I do enough in that 25 minutes to be a good workout for the day!

    Good luck!

    This is a great site and I love it. Joined about 2 weeks ago and have met so many people who have the same issues as I have.

    feel free to add me! i love the hungry girl cookbooks. easy and fast recipies that you can simply double, etc. if cooking for more than yourself. workouts-biggest loser dvd's. they're pretty cheap and you can tailor your workout through time and/or difficulty. good luck! welcome!

    Welcome to MFP! The members here really are friendly, upbeat, and positive - very helpful when you are trying to lose weight and exercise. Good information and support here, too.

    I have not been using it myself, but as others mentioned, the Jillian Michaels 30-day Shred is very popular, and gives you a good workout. I have really enjoyed doing the cardio boxing from Your Shape on Xbox 360, but there are DVDs and video workouts for cardio boxing if you don't have a Xbox.

    Feel free to add me as a friend, if you like.

    I'm new to MFP as well and I also reccomend Jillian Michaels 30 day shred! It's an intense workout and I've only been doing it for about 10 days, but I'm already noticing changes in how my clothing fits me and how my appearance is changing as well! Good luck on your journey and I'll add you right now. :smile:
