I'm at maintenance but my body shape isn't' exactly what I want it to be. I think being more active will help with that. I recently got a Fitbit which is helping but I'd like to do more. I've heard people rave about Zumba. Can anyone recommend a DVD that they love? Thanks for your help!

    Yep, I just got Cize too - and I have Zumba.

    For Zumba itself - I preferred the Zumba Exhilerate series, but the new one is okay too. (Go to zumba.com).

    For Cize, it's from Shaun T, I love it as it teaches you how to dance no matter how uncoordinated you are, you burn calories. I'm starting it as a challenge for myself on Monday. (NOT pitching you).

    You can get it from beachbody.com, or at least go there to check it out. They updated the page, I saw that yesterday so it has some intro videos.

    If you're looking for fun/sweat, either one of these will do.

    I just started Cize this week and really love it! But I've lost 65 pounds so far using YouTube videos from Lauren fitz. She also has a new website called clubfitzfitness.com the YouTube videos don't come with instructions you just have to jump in and figure it out but I really love them (plus free :)

    I love Zumba World Party on the Wii. You wear a controller on your waist that tracks your movements for points. When you set it up you enter your height/weight/sex/age and then it tracks your workouts and calorie burns. You can make a custom workout or choose between 20, 40 and 60 minute workouts, medium or high intensity. I love it!

    ditto lauren fitz. high energy, great music. I made my own playlist on my youtube channel of her stuff. I don't know how to get youtube to play on my tv, so I just sit the laptop down on the coffee table and zumba away that way.

    I just tried Cize yesterday. It's going to be my new Zumba alternative when I can't make it to class! 30 minutes and I was sweating!
