I view 8 cups a day = 8 8 fl oz glasses per day. I have a water jug I fill and refill throughout the day that's 72 fl oz total. I'm getting anywhere between 72-100 fl oz in a day. It's awesome! Of course, that means I frequently use the restroom, but it's better than sitting around doing nothing!

Honestly, I'm 5'8 but I have a larger bone structure. Just happened to get those fun genes. My mom has a bone structure that's light as a feather and skinny as a rail, yet she's 5'11. So with that in mind, and the fact that I haven't been under 200 pounds since freshmen year of high school, I'm aiming for 190 and see where…

I don't have the money for a membership, so that's why if the equipment is at the right price, I can afford to invest in that instead of a membership.

So guys actually think a woman covered in sweat is sexy? Go to a Zumba class and press your noses up against the glass windows. We are ALWAYS covered in sweat haha. I don't think I've ever sweat through two shirts and a pair of yoga pants before. Seriously, drenched!

You know, I wouldn't feel too terrible about that. I think it happens to a lot of people, but they just don't talk about it. The thing is, I don't think it's self-sabotage. I think it's just we get in this mindset of, "I lost 3 pounds last week!" and then everything seems like you might be able to get away with eating just…

Ditto to this! I'm 5'8 and my current weight is more than what most of the posts on here have for their current/goal weight. My goal, though, is 180-190 pounds. I think that for my frame, which is a bit larger than most 5'8ers, that would be a good weight to maintain for awhile. I can always lose more when I get to that…

Welcome and good luck! I've found lots of support here at MFP, and I hope you find the same! Plus, we do tend to keep things spicy around here!

I can relate. I don't tend to pig out on junk food, but I want to order food that's the greasy, fried stuff that just goes so well with alcohol. I don't drink too often, but when I do, I like to have a good time. Problem is, when I drink it's usually out with friends, so there's always the presence of appetizers and other…

Yes! Every month I gain about 5 pounds of water weight. I was awesome and decided to start up the official diet and MFP the day Mother Nature blew into town. Just another day and I'll be back to normal. But it's definitely Mother Nature throwing the scale off. No fretting about no pounds lost during those few days. Water…

Honestly? I do wear make-up when I workout. But most of the time I'm coming right from work of working out at the end of the day, so I'm already wearing make-up. If I do go to a morning class, I do put on concealer just to hide my blemishes. I know I'm sweating like crazy and it's not like anyone REALLY cares how my face…

Easy enough! Thanks, again!

http://www.zumbacalories.com/ I've been using this to calculate my calories for Zumba. I find that all the people and websites who say 300-500 are inaccurate do to our own body types. So the number of calories I burn in a class is FAR MORE than someone who is 100 pounds lighter. Hope this helps and have fun with Zumba!…

I started doing it with a friend and she'll be getting the X-box version. I heard that the at-home version still kicks your butt!
