After several months my friend has finally returned my Zumba fitness workout DVDs. I will be doing the accelerated weight loss program in hopes of losing 2 pant sizes before I leave. Ready for results :)

    I plan on adding Zumba to my routine tomorrow! Right now I'm doing 30 minutes stationary bike in the morning and 30ds in the evening, but the bike is just so....blah. Zumba looks like fun and from what I've read you burn way more calories, so I'm on board!

    I have the Transformation set and I am definitely down for this challenge! I'm new to Zumba and my plan now is to combine the 30ds with Zumba (we'll see how hard both of them are together! I might switch to every other day :laugh: )

    3 days in so far....and I love it! I've never had so much fun. I have, however, realized that my dreams of becoming and internationally famous Latin dancer are shattered.

    I am currently also doing the 30ds and thought this is a bit more light hearted and might help break things up a little!

    Transformation. I decided to add the 30 day shred and the squat challenge. I would love to be a size 8 again.

    Three is a good goal to have. :) I do about 6 a week these days and one hip hop class, I use to do 12 but then life got in the way. Add that with two nights of weight lifting and you'll be smokin!
