Hey everyone!
My name is Melanie and I decided that it is about time I really buckle down and get exercising!
I am going to be doing Zumba as my main way of working out and occasionally going for walks with my dog =]
I hope this is going to help me shed the lbs. I really like how this website is designed and it seems really helpful =]
Well I just wanted to say hey and good luck to everyone who is in the same boat as me!

    I don't know what zumba is, but I've done the dog walking thing. Most of my exercise is on the treadmill. I try to do 45 minutes 4 times a week at 3.5 miles per hour.

    Also, note to MrsWagz: I like your signature line(s). :-)

    Good luck! I do the dog walking thing every morning for an hour and it helps me burn off 340 calories every day. Looking to join a Zumba class too as I also like a boogie. I hope you enjoy the site, everyone is lovely and very supportive. Add me as a friend if you like, the more the merrier!

    Good luck x x x
