    So I have lost a total of 5lbs doing Zumba so far.
    but I need the motivation to keep going, I am getting a little bored of the DVDs
    Idk maybe cause I do zumba everyday? I'm thinking of mixing it up and walking more
    Anyway today I did the 20min Cardio workout
    And also the Zumba Cardio Party 50min. I must say its funny goingbfrom high energy samba to doing the american mix lol
    Throws me off sometimes :-)

    Workout #5 - Activate dvd
    Burned 646 calories.

    Tried a few minutes of the mix dvd - moves from all over the world. Could NOT keep up! Maybe it's best if I stick to the voice instructed dvd's for a while and don't let my enthusiasm get ahead of my ability!

    Keep it up guys!

    One week in. One lb gone.

    Workout #7 this afternoon
    Activate dvd
    Burned 557 calories

    Going to try and squeeze in a workout tomorrow morning, then I'm off out of town overnight to celebrate my father's 25th wedding anniversary. There is going to be pizza and ribs and the wine will probably not stop flowing. Wish me luck!

    Happy weekend everyone!

    Workout #8 - Activate dvd
    burned 745 cals

    Dragged my tired sorry *kitten* out of bed at 6:30am to get a workout in before hubby had to leave for work. Yikes! I don't typically work out on the weekend due to lack of time, but I needed to make room for today's anniversary visit with my dad. Pizza, ribs and wine. And good thing I did, because looking at my diary today, I needed it!!!!

    Keep up the great work everyone!!!

    Well then, you'd love my class!!! I leave soaken wet to the core everytime, lol!!!

    The salsa club was fun! The Zumba moves definitely helped. I actually danced with a partner, but boy it's hard for me to follow, I'm so used to leading, lol!!!

    Yesterday's workout
    Workout #9 - mix dvd
    burned 374 cals

    Was short on time and I wanted to get some weight trainng in too, so put on the 20 min dvd. Holy smokes! Fast or what?! I had a hard time keeping up with a few of the moves, but just regrouped and kept going. Once or twice and I'll hopefully have it down!

    No zumba for me today because I have bootcamp tonight, so have a great day today everyone! Keep dancing!!!

    Workout #10 - Exhilarate dvd
    Calories burned: 678

    Holy man was that hard! There were a few dances that I totally got lost in. Tango and swing! Gosh. Not sure if it was a feet or brain problem!

    Going to try again tomorrow and see how I do.

    Week 2, down 2 lbs
    However, just took my measurements and wow!
    hips down 2"
    thighs down 1 3/4"
    All that lower body work is going my body good!

    Welcome all of our new zumba ladies!

    It's hard. Can't quite get the steps to some of the dances. The tango still threw me today, but got most of the swing one I was having trouble with yesterday. I prob look like a dork most of the time too, but Beto is on it and he is NICE to look at! I much prefer the instructors talking me through the instructions though than the voice over instructions, which is what exhilarate has. Going to try the ripped disc next week.
