I have no idea if you're doing it already, but if you want to maximize your warm ups, you should also be stretching and warming up before hand. That way the metabolism is already jump-started instead of having to build up during the cardio.

I actually found that the more I integrated exercise into my daily schedule, the easier it was to keep at it. Habits are hard to break, but routines can set people on the right track.

Warming up is a good idea. I warm up with a slow song and work my way up in the difficulty, so my body gets used to moving again.

I'm finding I'm looking forward to doing DDR when I get home. Michelle and I are doing it together as much as possible, too, so I've got a lot of support and encouragement. ^_^ We're not doing any competitions because I get too competitive and then Michelle wants to take her toys and go home with me. >_>

Probably TMI but those dance mats can withstand cat pee so I assume barf is not a problem. :P
