I was banded on on 9/1/10 and now weigh 230 lbs. I just began using Stephanie Huckabee's Powerfit Harmony videos and am very happy with them. They are on clearance sale at QVC. For less than $25 (which INCLUDES shipping) you get TEN DVD with various 20 minute workouts - cardio, upper body, lower body, etc. - PLUS three resistance bands of varying resistance strengths. Also, the instructor (known for her FIRM series workouts back in the day) is available for support on her website and Facebook. I am enjoying these because they offer a variety of exercises and difficulty level which will help me stick with them. Right now, I'm doing them with no resistance and just concentrating on learning the steps. Check out the video and reviews: Stephanie Huckabee's Powerfit Harmony 10 DVD Collection - QVC.com

I am not associated with the video or QVC, just wanted to share a tip!

Hi,

Great suggestion!

I purchased her Power Fit series that also came with 5 dvds and a resitance band about a month ago in preparation to exercise a few weeks after surgery. (I'm 7 days post-ope now and probably can't do this series for a few wks) Your set sounds sounds amazing and it was the same price I paid.

Good luck on your journey!

Thanks for the tip on these DVD's.. I saw her when she presented these and have been wondering if they were any good.
