Where I live there are no gyms or work out areas to go to, and the icy streets etc prevent much outside walking. My favorite is the Leslie Sansome walking dvd's. You can go 1,2,3 or 4 miles, and it's all easy to do. Only need a little area to move in, cause it's all walking in place. The few extra moves she has you do makes it a good workout. Goes quickly, and feels good when you are done! Good luck with your weight loss...watching Biggest Loser on Tuesday nights is always motivating. Try to cut down on your white flour, sugar, pasta, etc. YOU CAN DO IT!!!!!
