    Good luck to you! I am in the frozen tundra of Canada. When my partner and I bought our house in September, the new place just didn't have the room for my gym equipment, so out the door it went. In 5 months I gained almost 25 lbs. It happened before I even noticed it. Luckily I found a great gym just a short drive away, and I'm back to it 5-6 days a week, eating clean and drinking more water than I thought humanly possible. Already down 4.6 pounds since the 11th! If I can do it, you can do it!!!!

    Good for you! My best advice is to take baby steps and do it for yourself and how good it makes you feel not just the weight loss!

    I was from FL (Tampa)! Zumba is great, entertainment and cardio at the same time. When you find a good instructor, stick with them! :smiley:
