this is just a post to share a personal victory for me!

it took me long enough to convince myself to go to zumba class.
i loved it, and then decided to start also taking pilates! Loved it!

well today was a zumba day, which, according to my heart rate monitor burns about 350-400 cals in an hour. TOday i decided to stick around for the class afterward, strength training!
Oh my Lord!
as of right now, in the last two hours, i have burned 1100 calories. that is right, 11 with two 0's behind it!
im so motivated that i want to do it every mwf!! plus it works with weights and i need work on my upper body strength!

so anyway, i wont be on all weekend, im glad to be leaving mfp victoriously at least for the weekend!

SOMEONE, tell Manda and Jeremy Hi for me. I miss them! cant wait to talk to yall on monday! ~Em

    That's great!!! I love my strength training class, I do it Wednesday nights and burn around 700 calories in an hour....I'm thinking about trying to catch the class a couple more days a week too! It's awesome!!! Have a great weekend!
