Hi and welcome.

Why did you cut out fruit? The sugar found in fruit is the type that's good for you.

As for working out, it all depends on what you want. WalMart sells an excellent DVD for step aerobics that comes with a step thingie (don't know what they're called).

I've also tried belly dancing. There's a video called Bellydancing for Fitness or something like that (can't find what I did with it) that was made with two well known twins (Veena and Neena). It has one part where you learn the moves and is a great workout for your whole body. It also has a fat burning cardio session which is awesome.

But the best suggestion I can make is to learn to do weights as well as cardio (even better if the cardio is right after the weights). Don't worry, you can't get too big on weights unless you take sterroids. The great thing is, the more muscle you have the more calories you burn even when resting.

*hugs* and good luck!
