Answer
Glad you're motivated to workout.  There are lots of different programs available.  But I don't know what you're looking for...something you can do by yourself?  With a friend?  A group? A DVD? A health club? A class to go to?  

You can start by going to the library to see what DVDs they have to check out.  Check your parks and recreation for what they offer as well.
