    Hi! I would like to join please!! My FI bought me the Zumba on Kinect for Valentines day and I've been really getting into it this past week. I gained about 20 pounds in the last year or so .. just tried on the wedding dress I bough a year and a half ago - doesn't f***ing fit me! So now I'm panicing, because I get married June 26th and the fitting is June 11th! If this board isn't enough motivation, that wake up call was. Basically, I need to lose 10-15 pounds in the next month and a half. COUNT ME IN. Did Work out #1 Intermediate 45 minutes (#1). I don't remember my points. 455ish. :) That was last night and this morning I did Intermediate #2 for 45 minutes. Are you guys eating more calories because you are burning so much? I really just want to stick to my 1200...

    Welcome to the TEAM new Zumba gals!!!

    Mustangurl - congrats on your success so far, woohoo!!! :drinker:

    Samii - sorry to hear about the wedding dress :frown: But exercising and eating right will get you on your way!!! There is a lot of controversy about eating your exercise calories back. I try to eat mine back, but sometimes I can't get all of them. That's something that everyone has to figure out for themselves. I know MFP does not recommend going lower than 1200 net.

    Good luck!

    And gooooo TEAM!!!:flowerforyou:

    HI - new to this thread! I have been doing zumba 2x a week since the end of January - I actually had three classes this week - burned 621, 587, and 585 (I estimated this one, forgot to turn on the HRM until 10min into the class) calories for each one. I really like my instructor, very high impact, focus on the aerobic portion vs. the more dance skills, keeps my heart rate up!! Love it!!

    I eat back my calories, or as much as I can without them being empty just for the sake of eating them back. I'm not always successful at eating them all back though.

    Congrats on the marriage! I know that you will rock it out so hard and that dress will totally fit when you need it too!

    Best of luck and let's rock this thing!

    Yes.. eat back your calories. If you eat too little it could actually have a reverse effect on you and you could gain. I know there is a thread somewhere that tells you this. MFP already builds in a deficite for calories based on your profile therefore once you work out add it in and eat back! Sometimes I'm under 100 or so but try to get close!
  • Hi! I'd like to join, I bought zumba for kinect a week or so ago but haven't worked out at all (have been very sick and on antibiotics) I can't wait to try it, I am starting to feel somewhat better and I plan on working out tomorrow :)

    One question though, how do I figure out how many calories burned?
    I will add stats later...

    Best thing to do to find out calories burned is get a HRM. MFP will guesstimate on yours by your profile but it's not exact. I didn't spend alot on mine. Got a MIO for about $30 at Academy and it works great!
