I didn't find the dvd of much practical use, because of the chatting to the participants. It's interesting to hear how other people are getting on, but only the once!! I would have found a dvd with a couple of different half an hour exercise routines that you could follow much more useful. But there are loads of exercise dvd's out there. I like the Davina McCall Power of Three one - precisely cos it has 3 different routines that you can do along with the DVD. I'd suggest registering with your local library and checking out the DVD rental section. Most will have a couple of different fitness/ exercise DVDs that you can try, and when you find one or two you like, then you can buy them and use them at home. I think learning to love exercise is a key part of maintaining your weight loss, and when I talk to to majority of my slim friends, most of them make exercise a priority in their lives.
