in Success Stories
I am patiently waiting for my Zumba package to show up at my door, and just for motivational purposes, does anyone have any before Zumba/after Zumba photos to share? I am so excited to start!

    Wowzers! 8.6 lbs lost in one month's time???!!! GREAT JOB!! :) Is it the Zumba off the infomercial or no? Just curious. I hope I'm not building myself up for all this fun and then be disappointed.

    Zumba and walking was what I did to lose the weight I have lost so far. I still continue to do Zumba several times a week. I never used the one from the commercial thing, but I made a youtube playlist up online of songs I liked being "zumba-ed" to and did that in my living room. Now I live in an apartment on the top floor and I go to a place that has classes all the time. I go 3-5 times a week. I love it.

    I've been at this "get fit" game for exactly 2 years now and I'd only lost 40lbs prior to Zumba. I found an awesome class (and friends) at my local YMCA and love every second of every class! I've lost 85# since June 2012 doing nothing but Zumba 3x a week, but recently added some strength training to help with the skin issue! :)

    Has anyone used Zumba Wii?

    I tried it but I burn about 1/2 the calories of a class in person.

    This. I tried it at home on the Xbox but the classes provide a completely different feel. I'd say start with the game and branch out. Once you've stepped foot in a class (that you like), you can't look back! You'll start cutting t-shirts, wearing neon and saying crazy things like "Omg, this is SOOO a Zumba shirt..." while you shop. It really is a disease. I don't need the cure.

    HA!!!

    I wish I could find a Zumba class a schedule for those of us who work 9-5 jobs and have to drive in traffic to get anywhere.

    I hear you. They only offer at 5:30 am or 5:30 pm and that doesn't fit my schedule with kids or hubby's work. I need one at 7:30pm! Oh and I have the Wii version and the graphics and music are so horrible I can't stand to do it.

    My after picture is actually from last august, so I have lost about 10 more pounds since then.

    Yes, then you get the bright idea to get licensed to teach Zumba, and then there's no going back. I am done for! I do moves in my desk at work, practice songs in the parking garage on my lunch break, and I choreography songs in my car while driving. I don't think there even is a cure for this!

    In for the Zumba love!

    This is 7 months progress, mostly Zumba with some weight lifting and running:

    Wow, Sparlingo, what a transformation! I wish in 6months, my 7 month pic will be similar to yours. Thanks for the inspiration.
    :flowerforyou: Thanks for sharing.

    What is your weight lifting routine?

    What is your weight lifting routine?

    Thank you! My lifting routine is basically just a full-body weight lifting class that I try to attend twice a week. As such, it is high reps and not "heavy lifting", but I do progressively increase my weights and make sure I'm lifting the most that I can for the sets that we do. Works for me, as I was extremely weak before. I started out doing bicep curls with 2.5 lbs dumbbells, and now can use 12.5 lbs dumbbells, for example :smile:. I'm toying with the idea of learning to lift heavy, as so many people have had success with it, but I enjoy my class and it's easy for me to get into, so for now it's working for me.

    I just started doing Zumba less than 2 months ago. I'm hoping I will have the results you guys are posting. It is addictive, and now I don't do it because it's exercise, I do it because I love it.

    I don't have any before or after pictures at the moment because I have been on an off losing weight for the past 2 years but I do Zumba as my main workout, mostly at home for 45-60mins. I do try to get to the live class when I got money and time and it has worked wonders for me. When I first started at home I could only do the 25min class and was dying. Now I do an hour class with no problem and I feel awesome after words. Also do some toning at home and walk the dog in the evening.
