I am around 3 stone overweight, and i am after an effective DVD, that will provide me with an effective cardiovascular workout, i am after a budget of under £15.00, and will give me an all round effective workout, that i can see results with, within the first month.
Thanks
:)

Try looking for excercises online or ride a bike - bikes are fun and u get excercise. Another idea which is probably more expensive is to get a playstation (I have PS1 and PS2 but use PS1) and a dance mat and a few dance games. Some games have workout modes or weightloss modes and I found that quite good. I used it for about an hour each night trying to burn over 300 calories in each session for just over a week and I lost around 3-3.5 kilos. Also changed my diet slightly eating more often but not as much food. I am going to try and do this again because over the summer i gained about 10 kilos. I think this is a good method and would be more fun than a dvd. If you do this and dont have a playstation already look on ebay - they should be quite cheap now, and with the PS3 and other game consoles coming out more should be going on sale soon. I know i didnt really answer ur question but it is a fun and effective way to lose weight.

Fat people ignore the obvious fact that they are eating too much. If I guess that you weigh 10 stone (140 pounds) then an hours session of aerobic dancing (or similar equivalent) uses up about 380 calories (380 kcal).
http://health.yahoo.com/ency/healthwise/tx4394
One portion of baked beans supplies 240 calories (240 kcal), one chocolate digestive biscuit supplies 70 calories (70 kcal) and one finger of a 'Drifter' chocolate bar supplies 130 calories (130 kcal).
Could you dance aerobically continuously for an hour to use up the energy provided by by 5 chocolate digestive biscuits?
Exercise is very important but you cannot rely on it to lose weight, especially if you are currently unfit and unable to exercise for a long time. It would take a five mile walk to use up the energy from an average (350g) chocolate bar.

Try the Jordan Workout DVD, worked for me, gave me a good workout, I'd highly recommend this :-) Not sure how much it is, but it's been out a while so reckon that it's definately under £15 :-)

You can get a very good jump rope for $10. And if you use it regularly you most definitely will see results the first month. But you got to skip for at least 30 minutes every other day.
PS: Don't expect to be able to do 30 min straight (with no rest) at first.

Insted of buying a dvd why not try some exercises by yourself, for example walking.
You should also be able to find exercise routines online for free.
