    Silver, where do you do zumba? I did zumba yesterday, I'm a little sore this morning!

    I Zumba at the YMCA. I love Zumba! I do it on Monday and Friday right now, but they just started the Summer Sweat challenge and if you do 30 classes in June and July, you get a shirt. I'm trying to figure out a way to work more in because I am already doing the shred and jogging on S/T/Th...hmm. Where do you Zumba?

    I zumba at the Y too. Usually I go Wed am and Thurs pm. I go some sundays when my friend asks me to go. Throughout the summer, every other Saturday, our library has zumba for all ages, so I go with my daughter. Its still a really good workout. There is another zumba class for kids at the Y that meets Monday nights. My daughter will do that two mondays a month and I will probably join her then. And I have zumba on wii. Sometimes when I'm in the dancing mood, I'll pop that in and go for 20 minutes, sometimes 45 minutes! So as you can see, I LOVE ZUMBA.

    I have two zumba shirts, but they are 10% spandex (similar to the ones the ladies were mid season on the biggest loser) So I'm not completely comfortable wearing it yet. But I have worn them on special ocassion! lol I want some zumba pans, but they're so darn expensive and I'm not working ATM. Do you have any zumba gear? Are those zumba shirts that they're giving away if you do 30 classes or just a YMCA shirt?

    Yes, it sounds like you love zumba! ;) I'm not sure about the shirt...I see a lot of ppl in class with the same ones that the instructors wear and they did this challenge last summer also, so I'm hoping it's a zumba shirt! I don't have any Zumba gear yet and would love to have some. the pants are so cute!

    Morning!

    I hope you all had a good weekend.

    I'm back after a crazy weekend. I was good on Friday but Saturday was a food disaster. Family BBQ which meant sitting for hours nibbling on junk while waiting for a lunch of meat and potato salad. I've tried in the past to suggest that we could have or I could bring some lighter healther food but it didn't go down too well. Still it was lovely to see everyone and I see the foregin rellies so seldom it was worth the extra lb on the scale this morning. I am revlieved though to be getting back to normal life and my normal food routine.

    Monday's Goals:
    1. Walk at lunch (have brought my wellies into the office so the rain in no excuse)
    2. Run after work
    3. Supermarket - Must not get lazy and go for easy fatty fixes
    4. Landry, laundry and more laundry its like i've recarpeted my bedroom with clothes.

    Have a great day!

    June 3 Goals:

    2. Burn some calories with exercise (today it's doubles tennis, so it's not really a chore!) Yes

    As you can see, I haven't come on and posted since Friday, not a good thing. Weekends are definately harder and summer weekends in particular. Barbeques are a killer. I did have a blackbean burger on sandwich thin yesterday instead of regular hamburger, but then I finished my daughter's cheeseburger for her!.
    Have to start planning meals better and getting some healthier cook out foods in stock!
    It was a great weekend though....beautiful weather and fun times with the kids (having them both home - daughter just graduated college and son home for the summer, a senior in college, is actually very enjoyable, hope it lasts)

    Goals for 6/6/11

    1. Log in Daily on this thread
    2. Organize home bills and pay same
    3. Stay under calorie allowance.
    4. Go food shopping and get more fruits.
    5. Organize desk at work....
    6. Get exercise in (doubles tennis again tonight, not a chore)

    So my official June 7's goals (in addition to the ones I didn't do yesterday)
    Non fitness goals:
    1. return books to the library, get new books.
    2. continue job search.
    3. go to PT.

    fitness goals:
    1. eat better.
    2. 7 reg push ups, 23 girlie push ups.

    Yesterday I did a lot of things that were not on my list that probably would have been on my list today.
    Searched for jobs, washed and combed daughter's hair, cleaned car inside and out, tended to the flower garden and the house plants. So it was productive!

    My daughter didn't have school so I wasn't able to do all the errands or cleaning that I would have liked to, but I'm going to get started the second she leaves for school.

    I will set Wednesday's goals now as I am not sure if I will be on again today. (one of my ongoing goals is to spend less time on MFP so I can get things done in my real life).

    Wed. June 8's goals:
    1. go to zumba/trainig.
    2. stay hydrated.
    3. 8 reg. pushups, 22 girlie push ups. (goal is to get to 30 real push ups by the end of the month by increasing one everyday)
    non fitness goals:
    1. go to post office.
    2. clean my sneakers.

    I am not doing very well lately, have to get back on track!! This is the worst I've done I think since I started losing several months ago. I feel like I have to have a couple of really good, stay on track days to get back into the swing of things. After eating well for just a couple of days, it really gets easier for me to eat healthy, I actually enjoy the healthier food. So my goals are:

    Goals for 6/7/11

    Stay on track with calorie allowance.
    Log in and track food and exercise
    Get organized for Food Pantry Meeing tonight.
    Eat a good dinner early and not cheat at the Pantry tonight!
    Get exercise in (Again 2 hours of Doubles Tennis )
    Drink plenty of water.
