    30 Day shred is cheap ($10) and it's not a bad workout! That's a good place to start! If you're up for a challenge and have a little extra money to spend, anything by beachbody is great too! they have tons of different programs to suit your workout style!

    I can see me enjoying this JM one!

    I don't mind joining the gym, my doctor is sorting it out for me so I wouldn't have to worry about paying.

    There's actually a Zumba class on tonight that I'm thinking about going to.

    The JM DVDs are great and really inexpensive. If you are looking for a program, go no further than Rushfit. I am head over heels in love with it :)

    I love Turbo Fire, I lost 12 lbs and 13 inches at the beginning of the year doing it. Turbo Jam is a little bit easier but still awesome if you want to start with that. Good luck!

    I've had friends who have tried the following:
    Zumba Fitness Total Body Transformation System
    Jillian Michael's 30 Day Shred
    P90x & P90
    Insanity
    Billy Blanks Tae Bo
    Skoggs System Kettlebells
    Yoga for Cardio

    I personally have used the Skoggs System Kettlebells DVDs and they're pretty good, but it's completely up to you what kind of exercise you want to concentrate on, whether it be aerobics, weight training, or other. Look at each system and read people's reviews on sites like this or amazon.com to see what kind of results people have achieved (I rarely ever look at the product's website for reviews because they usually take only the absolute best weight loss stories to make their product seem like the best.)

    What I've seen and heard from friends is that they've had better success using multiple DVDs and mixing it up from week to week or month to month. Not only does it keep things different, but the intervals help to work different muscles and keeps you from getting bored with the same routine.

    Zumba can be overwhelming the first night. Make sure you take the class at least 3 times before you even think of quitting. I love it! I have noticed that I am losing weight differently than I have in the past. More off my waist and upper body.

    "Kettlebell Goddess" from Dragon Door. I'm no goddess, so I haven't personally used it, but I have heard nothing but good things.
