love a good rant i do.... i agree btw

LOL thanks Clumsycat.  Glad you agree. 

i've got coleen nolan's keep fit dvd...........its shite.........there is no way on gods earth she lost that amount of weight by 'do this for an hour at least 3 times a week and the results are amazing'!............it isn't even hard to do.......doesn't put your heart rate up........and is basically just crap.......no way in hell did she lose weight just doing those exercises

i've got a far few of em..........davina's are good.........kate lawlers cardio combat is as well......and the billy blanks ones......

they're ok to do on days you're not at the gym etc.........but they're not what they promote themselves as.....imo....

I dont take any of them seriously half of them get liposuction personal trainers you name it they get it, then they do a video hoping it will make them lots of money, then they are seen in magazines stuffing themselves with food and bigger than they originally were.

Sparkles - sit down and have a cup of tea ... you'll do yourself an injury getting worked up like that

Hi spongie and marguerita.  I think Davina's was one of the few that was OK, because she is genuinely a bit of a fitness buff and has stayed slim and fit, but most of the others are just in it for the money, and I don't know whether to feel angry or whether to laugh when the daft gits pile it all back on! LOL @ Rexi   I hate tea but i will get some coffee!

That's the spirit!!

I'll have some of that too Rexi, in the shape of a drop of whiskey in mah coffee! 

mmmmmmmmmmmmmm........... whisky.. hope its malt

 Hi spongie and marguerita

Hi sparkles

Claire Nasir I think is the girl you're on about (weathergirl). I saw her on Loose Women the other day. She looks fab but if she loses any more she'll be a head on a stick. Have to say Kerry Katona does look good, she hasn't lost too much (just a shame she still talks like she's off her head on narcotics). Cheryl Baker looks alright as well. Natalie Cassidy looked ill when she lost the weight, it was too much (too soon).

January is the time a lot of people talk about going to the gym or getting fit which is why the tele is swamped with them at the mo. Claire Nasir was talking about high intensity boxing (I think?), an exercise that is high impact and will get results in half the time of aerobics (or summat - I was half listening and playing Sonic).

Bev Callard has another one out too; she has had loads.  What's the point..?  It's the same every time IMO.  Then there's that woman off Corrie who plays Gary's mom (Windass?)  I just saw them both advertised.  Clair Nasir is the one I was on about, thanks Karma  

I have had friends of mine suggest what I mentioned earlier too, should people be allowed their money back, if the person whose DVD they buy, piles the weight all back on?  Like Colleen Nolan for example.  It smacks of hypocrisy when she has bleated about how amazing she is for losing so much weight and making people spend money to see how she did it, and then she's gone against everything she stated in the DVD (obviously!) because she piled the all weight back - and more!  I know most people put weight back on when they have lost it, but not everyone brags on national tv and in magazines and makes a fortune from DVDs from doing it.

The only one I've ever used is the Rosemary Conley Hip and Thigh workout one. I do like her and think she knows what she's about in a sensible way. Plus she looks toned but healthy and combines the exercises with a healthy diet

Hi veggie.    Yes I agree.  Again like Davina, Rosemary was good at it and did it as a way of life; she didnt just lose 3 stone over 4 months and put a video out and a book out making a fortune from people and then pile the weight back on within a year!

It would be easy for anybody to lose weight and tone up with a personal trainer and dietician on hand....along with having nothing else to do except work on losing weight....they're not like the normal person who has a full time job, kids etc...their job IS losing the weight for the 12 months before their shite DVDs come out....I can honetly say I never have, and never will buy one either....

Keith Lemon's Fit DVD is meant to be good and you get a free pizza with it, apparently. 

Very well said Devilindiamante,  And so true.  Thats how the 'yummy mummy celebs' get to lose 2 stone and drop 3 dress sizes in 9-10 weeks.  And LOL Blizzard
