Cottage cheese...I just can't.

My husband got me Wii Zumba 2 and I tried it last night and I love it. Worked up a sweat and had fun. It will take some time to get the moves down though.
-
Only 73 calories in an hour? That is not right. I wear a polar heart rate monitor and for a good workout I burn between 500-600 calories in an hour. Depends on your weight/age and intensity. Hope that helps.

Are we still talking about Spin here?
-
Thanks for all the great tips! Looked into shoes and they look quite expensive!
-
I cannot imagine two hours! Good for you. The instructor did a great job showing me how to adjust the seat. I can't wait to wear my heart rate monitor (forgot it last night) and see how many calories I burn!
-
I plan on doing a mix of Spin, Barre, TRX and Zumba. The instructor also said the pain would go away so I'll just deal with it. I'll look into the shoes.
-
Padded bike shorts, sounds good! The instructor said you get used to it but it really hurts! My class was an hour and she said don't worry about keeping up but I did pretty well. There was a woman in there who was going slower and didn't have her resistance as high, so you can go at your own pace, highly recommended. I was…

You look fantastic! Keep up the great work.

I just looked it up and gas is a common side effect of Flax!

I started Power 90 quite a while ago and finished the first 30 days and have since slacked. I do have my 30 day pics posted in my profile, I lost 7 pounds and 9.5 inches in those 30 days. Good luck. I'm currently on Phase 3-4 but haven't been doing them consistently. Summer is hard!
-
Yep sorry not possible. I went from a 42DD to a 36D and still have another 30 pounds to lose. My wedding rings need to be re-sized but my *kitten* is still huge. Fat comes off wherever it damn well pleases.
-
I am just shy of 5'7" and currently 170 pounds. I am just starting to look somewhat healthy. My goal weight is about 140. I was 125-130 in high school and looking back I was scrawny.
-
I am also doing Power 90 and don't generally get sore. I have 30 day progress pics in my profile if you are interested, I am still getting results. Lost 9.5 inches and 7 lbs in 30 days!
-
You are correct, if you put that you exercise 4-5 times a week, don't add them. I sit at work all day so I selected Sedentary and I eat some of my exercise calories, especially if it is a high burn and I am hungry.
-
I can't seem to get the sizing right, sorry!
-
I was there last summer and I was approximately 215 pounds. I didn't go on many rides but did try to go on the tea cups with my daughter and the rope did not fit across and I had to get off, it was humiliating. My husband did go on all the rides and he was about 250 pounds. I remember him saying one ride he was scared he…

I went to zumba for a long time at my local Y. There are women (and a few brave men) of all shapes and sizes, ages and abilities. There was a woman there and she had to be close to 80, she was barely moving but she was moving! Big women, small women, please don't be afraid to go, it is very fun and burns tons of calories…

I did this last night, also used cocoa powder, it is so yummy!

Recipe from Pinterest! http://www.bhg.com/recipe/desserts/key-lime-cheesecake-bars/
-
The lime keeps it from turning brown! Yes it is from Skinnytaste and it's delicious.
-
I found a recipe on Pinterest where you add avocado instead of mayo and it was delicious! I added a bit of garlic powder, pinch of salt and some lime juice which kept it fresher longer! Definitely recommend!
-
It does depend on your weight and the intensity of the class. Hard cardio supposedly burns 10 calories a minute (read that somewhere to use as an estimate.) I was logging 600 from zumbacalories.com before I got my HRM. When I wore it, I would get readings between 530-550 so not far off. BTW I was about 180-190 at 5'7" when…

When I go out to eat I do just what you are doing, try to find nutritional info on the site. If it's a big chain it's easy, if not, it gets a little harder. My advice is to get something healthy (grilled, broiled, veggies) and eat about half of it, as most restaurants double a proper portion and split a dessert with your…
-
The kind I got said it's already pre-rinsed so no need to rinse or soak. Maybe if I did anyway it would taste better?
-
Maybe I got bad Quinoa? I cooked it in chicken broth like a friend told me to do and I made a pilaf like the package said. When I put it into my mouth it tasted good but had a horrible after taste! I can't get myself to try it again.
-
You look amazing!
-
I did one day of the 30 day shred when I weight about 220 lbs. I barely finished it and I was sweaty and red and could not walk or move anything for days without pain, it took me a year and a half to pick it up again, this time 20 or so pounds lighter. I work out many times a week and still struggle with it, but that just…
-
Maybe because your body is already fabulous? :smile: I don't know, I only add the shred in on occasion but I too have seen a lot of great results.
