Music suggestions? please

hi all,
i am new to this forum.  I am waiting for my RNY and have joined the gym to get myself as healthy as possible before surgery.  I am stunned that I enjoy it so much!  I am at a much lower level of fitness than any of the people there but I have never been made to feel out of place or "below" them. 
I regularly use the treadmill and the recumbent bicycle.  I do use the elliptical once a week , for a few minutes but it KILLS me!  i just keep trying because I refuse to let it win!
Can anyone suggest music for my i-pod?  I have some on it now but would like more that have that fast pace that we need, to keep motivated.
Funny thing, right now my fave song to walk with is "Stars on 45'"s  Beatle medley and "Madonna" ray of light
I look forward to listening to some new music,

Michelle

Hi Michelle..there is a bunch of songs we use at school for the kids to do what we call DPA which is daily physical activity..we use.. So What by Pink ,The cha cha slide, I know there are some Milie Cyrus songs..however you spell that..like Fly on the Wall ..I'll check it out tomorrow when I get to school..there is a list...I'll get back to you..
