I just bought mine 2 weeks ago and love it.

I try to spend an hour a day on it.. Either 1 hour all up or 2 3 minute sessions

I haven't had much time this past week as I had my mum here and we were out most of the day but I still did my body test and some training.. Mainly the steps and some yoga.

I think making sure you drink plenty of water while exercising and then eating in moderation afterwards is the way to make it work.. I am always starving after exercising so I try and have a small breakfast then jump on for an hour then I clean the house to distract me from having anything to eat.

Good Luck and Have fun..
