Due to time and having four kids, I just bought the Zumba dvds. I needed something that I could do at home and stick with and would like to know if anyone has had sucess with this plan?

    Ironically, after having been an avid (still am) Beachbody workout dvd fan (they make P90X, Turbo Jam, Insanity, etc.) I JUST discovered Zumba when I took a class at my gym last week and LOVED it. I then ordered the dvds and am actually getting certified as a Zumba instructor in October!

    While I don't need to lose weight anymore, I am just maintaining, since starting Zumba I have noticed that I am getting more tone and IF I actually implemented the nutrition plan, I am sure I would be successful in losing weight.

    Keep us posted as to what you think!
  • I know so many people who do this 2 times a week... should they be doing it more? I dont see much change any any of these people.
  • I was going once a week to a class (before summer) and didn't start seeing big results until I added calorie counting. I dropped 15 pounds in just over a month!
