right lets get this straight, 2 weeks ago i had a super bad week! I had a takeaway everyday! 2 macdonalds, 1 indian, 3 chippies! and friday was the only decet day i had! So on the sunday morning when i weigh myself i had put on 6lb! Obviously because i ate soo much crap, and all though i did excercise alot that week - it wasnt enough to burn off all the food! Anyway last sunday on my weigh in i didnt loose anything even though the week was ok ish.
But this morning when i weighed in, i lost a whopping 3lb!! I was over the moon!! Really really happy! This week i had a good few days with food where it would be nice and healthy, but on tuesday and wednesday i slipped down a bit. I went cinema tuesday and ate whole bag of those new twirl bites to myself along with popcorn and dr pepper! And on wednesday i had a chicken korma abd rice from the indian. I knew that this week i wasnt going to loose anything because of that!
Ive got the zumba game for wii and ive been on that everyday doing a 45 minutes session, id then let myself cool down for 30 mins after and then id go on just dance for the wii for about 30 minutes. I recently brought a hrm, which i LOVE! its my new best friend! I just love working out with it ad seeing that heart rate go up and up and seeing those calories burnt shoot up aswell!! With 45 minutes of zumba i have been burning over 650 cals and 30 mins just dance ive been burning over 300 cals. So ive been doing that since last sunday. And ive lost 3lb this morning because of it!!!
Soo ive found my new love - zumba for wii!!
Ive also noticed that my 'muffin top' is shrinking a little! I could grab it with my hand and there would be lots of it! But now when i grab it theres hardly nothing there to pinch anymore! Just a little fat that is all! Soo for anyone who is thinking about getting the zumba for wii - GET IT! its brilliant! And makes you sweat sweat sweat!
Just thought id share my happiness with everyone on here! x

Wow what a good incentive, I have both and really enjoy them when I do them, it's putting them on in the first place that I have trouble with!
I will try and remember your post, and get on with it! Thank you :-)0 -

Well done for getting back on track.
I have just ordered Zumba for the Kinect. I have Dance central and love that too. I know I will love Zumba, it is totally up my street.
I go on Dance Central for an hour and burn 675 calories.
Keep up the good work, I cant wait to jump on my Zumba game.
Makes exercising fun.
Happy weighing

Heheeh id love to get all the zumba dvds ive seen around in shops, its just money tho arghhh haha! 0 -
I just have the ones that came with the toning sticks. Didn't buy them. Traded with someone else on MFP for a Jillian Michael's game I had. Didn't like it at all.0

I have zumba on xbox kinect and i have been religeously doing it 2 times a day for this whole week on intermediate 45mins. i LOVE it it is soo fun! i dont know how many cals i burn doing it but i sweat alot! lol iv been logging it in my exercise as "dancing, general" because zumba isnt on the list and dancing general says i burn 233cals per 45mins. But you are burning 650cals on zumba!? wow! maybe im burning way more than im logging wich would be extra awesome when it comes to weighing in day! keep up the good work 0

oh and i like it better on the xbox or wii as you cant cheat or you dont get enough points to move onto the next round and motivate you. Whereas you can give up on the dvd and you are only disappointing yourself0

I have both of those games. Just waiting for the motivation to arrive for me to actually use them!0

Yeah, I have the shred and was completely NOT digging it. It bores me to death. She's no fun for me.
I also LOVE zumba and dancing. I tend to just dance for a workout all the time. Not a game or a video or anything. Just make a good playlist and work up a sweat. Thank God for my awesome sense of rhythm. 0 -
I like the Zumba for the Wii it can kick my butt0

Oooh wicked!

I've never actually listened to her talk.
I always unplug the sound and turn on some music instead. 0 -

Wow! 2 times a day! That would kill me!!! Ive got a hrm and according to that i burn over 650 cals per 45 mins. Thats the average for a normal zumba class anyway. I got my hrm from tesco direct, its a kelly holmes one and its £26. Soo if your in the UK, you could get that, it works great for me 0 -

i have the same problem i love zumba for the kinect but its finding the motivation to put it on that i struggle with, also depends on what mood the dog is in as well as he likes to get in the way, or sneak up behind you and lick your leg (shudder)0 -
Im a Zumba virgin but I went looking for wii zumba just this weekend sadly no joy I think lots of mfp members are grabbing it lol. I ended up getting "my fitness coach dance" and I love it has abit of everything latin dancing boxing running skipping and the list goes on. Tomorrow Im off to my 1st zumba class hope my 2 left feet can handle it 0

Im in new zealand but im sure i could find an HRM here somewhere, maybe a sport shop like rebel will have them. I cant wait to find out how mych it burns. iv read on most sites that people can burn between 600 and 800cals doing zumba which is awesome! what are you logging it in your exercise diary under?0 -
Oooh i see, im Sure you will get one
Before i had my hrm i logged it in as circuit training general as 45 mins says it burn over 500 cals, even tho u burn like over 600 but its more accurate than the dancing general excercise 0 -
See, you did give me the incentive - I've just been and done a 45 intermediate routine and burned 318 calories!
Thank you so much I feel great now ! :-)0 -
I do two classes a week at the gym, so I put on the expert mode on wii. I find this has longer and harder routines which I figure are better for burning more cals 0
