Hey I'm brand new here, so no real success stories yet. However I've been watching calories and exercising every day for almost 2 weeks now and have lost nearly 10 lbs (I think). 
My question is:
Im doing Zumba Basic DVD and dont know quite sure how to log it. So far I am putting it under Ballroom Dance, Fast cause Zumba is based on Latin style dance.
Is there a better catagory??
Thank you!
Happy losing

You can log it as your own exercise. You can use Zumba Calories.com to figure it out: https://sites.google.com/site/zumbacaloriesburnt/0
