I have Your Shape Fitness Evolved and am finding it good fun. I've been using it since Christmas day and I have pains all over so it must be doing something. As for the losing weight. I'm not sure how much it will help for that.

I have read reviews on the EA fitness and it is supposed to be very buggy. So I kept away from it.

I cant tell you what the biggest loser is like.

If you really are serious about wanting to get fit, check out the fitness forum.

Loads of info there and plenty of people with bags of experience too.

I've always thought of fitness games to be a bit of a gimmick...
