My daughter was channel flipping last weekend and came across a lady doing excercises while sitting in a chair. She told me I should try it and as a joke I tried to keep up with this lady and she wore me out. It will really get your heartrate up and that is half the battle of losing weight. You may have to do several short sessions a day depending on your stamina and will power. Also, I'm sure the Arthritis foundation has litature available . You may be able to get the excercise video from them that I saw last week. One last thing, if your medication was like mine, it only cause weight gain for the first two weeks and then leveled off and I even lost half of it in the next two weeks. Good luck to you...Gramps
