I went to the gym last night and did my first Zumba class!!!! I was so nervous about being the only one there that wouldn't know the moves, you know. While waiting for the class to begin this girl walks up to me and asked me if Zumba was hard that she had never been to a class before so I was really excited to find out that I wasn't the only newbie! We stood on the back row and I really got into the workout. I wore my trusty HRM and when the class was over, I had burned 618 calories! I had already burned 182 on the elliptical that morning, so I have to say that is probably the most I have ever burned in one day. I will definately be going back and burning more! This may not be a big deal to most of you, but I'm just so excited & had to share:happy: And one more thing.....I got home and hubby had a nice, healthy dinner waiting for me! It was a perfect day.

  • So jealous about the nice dinner you had waiting for you!!

    That is an amazing accomplishment! Keep it up and you will lose all that weight before you know it! Congrats on your class.

    I love Zumba, it is just so fun. I'm jealous too. My VCR broke (I had Zumba tapes), there are no classes where I live (of any kind) and I'm too cheap to buy the DVD's ( but I might just have to break down and get them)

    It is fun! The people in class just moved around and laughed and everyone was having a great time! Hope you talk yourself into getting the DVD haha
