Just started MFP a week or so ago and I'm down 3 lbs. so far! I love the calorie counter and I have it on my Ipod and Android phone. I'm a full time Kindergarten IA and a full time grad student! I am a member of Planet Fitness and I love to do Zumba whether its classes, the video game or the DVDs. :smile: My favorite singer is Mariah Carey and I love working out to her upbeat music! My goal weight right now is 160 so I have about 80lbs. I need to lose right now!! :sad: I hope I can do it!

    But I know if I don't get it...then I won't go to the gym...so I better not get it right now....

    Hi! I LOVE ZUMBA! I absolutely hated exercise and sweating of any sort until I tried it. Unfortunately there are no classes in my area, so I'm solely a DVD Zumba lady, but whatever...it still feels good. MFP is great for motivation and feedback, so get your friend pool going. I can add me if you'd like:flowerforyou:

    Which zumba videos do you use? Have been looking at several, but can't make up my mind which one to go with. Any thoughts would be appreciated.

    I'm new too. I love aerobics but have never tried Zumba. I feel a little intimidated I guess because I have no sense of rhythm and very uncoordinated. Feel free to add me as your friend. I would appreciate all the help, suggestions and motivation as I can get. I'm in it to win it....this time!!!

    Funny thing, I was reading this post, and the comments, I was finished, scrolled up to move to a different section on the site, and there at the top of the screen was an advertisement for Zumba. I think that's a sign!?!
