    My gym offers Zumba Tone. You might be able to find it online. It's a regular Zumba class but you are using hand weights for all the moves. So much fun!

    Exercise, whether it be cardio or strength training, are for fitness. Weight loss is dependent on eating at a calorie deficit. As others have said, it's probably not the exercises, but you eating more than you think or/and calculating your burns too high.

    I'd look at your food, not cardio, you probably are eating a little more than you think, especially if you arent measuring, or recording more burn for weights than you actually do and eating calories back, etc...

    This. No open diary. I'm going to assume you don't weigh/log everything, in which case is probably the reason you aren't progressing further.

    I belong to a gym, but its small...no classes. I have been thinking about doing some classes, I think that might help with my motivation. I used to enjoy running outdoors but even now that doesn't excite me.

    Really hate doing cardio but my weightloss progress has stalled for 5 weeks now. Guess I'm going to have to kick the cardio back up. I'll miss you weights...
    Anyone feel my pain?

    What do you mean by "cardio"?

    I'm talking about treadmill (or running period), elliptical, bikes - I really hate. lol

    I'm actually new to myfitnesspal so I'm not quite sure how to "open" my food log (I've only just began logging)....I'll play around with it though. I do try to watch my diet though and I've lost 15 pounds since October 2013. Just suddenly stalled in the last few weeks. I was using Noom to log but decided the macros thing was not exactly for me. Plus you don't get THIS interaction unless you upgrade to a paid program. Hopefully this app will help me though.
