  • Thanks so much everyone! Y'all are to sweet.
  • Rikka, feel free to add me as a friend if you would like. Or anyone looking for someone who is going through the weightloss journey as well.
  • I made Wacky Mac Noodles, with spaghetti sauce and 3 cheese chicken sausage for dinner! Everyone loved it!
  • I am so glad I have had a positive effect on you. Never give up, and keep on pushing through. Its nice seeing the scale move down instead of up. :)
  • Hello, I am living proof Zumba works if you do it, and watch what you eat. I started Zumba on May 7th of this year and currently have lost 45lbs since starting it. I love Zumba and do it everyday. Here is a picture. 45lbs gone by dreamscometrueweddingplanners, on Flickr
  • HOW AWESOME! You are an inspiration! I have lost 30lbs and have 60 more to go! You look 10 years younger from the weightloss! To lose that much weight and be as fit as you are is an accomplishment in itself!
  • I am losing weight so I can enlist in the Army. It has been my goal to join the military, but when I was with my ex-husband he would not allow me to. Needless to say 2 kids later, and I have weight to work off, but its well worth it. I have lost 27lbs so far, a third of what I need to lose to enlist. If you want to be…
  • That is the best way to look at it look at the bright side of things, but there is no reason to give up complete hope. I was like you about to give in and say the heck with it, but I found hope, and looked into other options. The internet can help be a great resource in searching for help. My friend had endometriosis and…
  • I tried many different avenues of treatments when I had active PCOS, and nothing worked Birth Control was way to hard on me with all the hormones, and metaformin kept me sick, and exercising was near impossible, so my doctor suggested laser surgery, originally her intentions were to just exploratory surgery to see what was…
  • I will tell you metformin works good for some people and not so well for others. I got extremely sick from it, and so did my cousin They ended up putting her on BC pills and she was able to conceive and have a child within about 3 months of taking BC. I even tried clomid to conceive and it caused an adverse reaction and…
  • Hello, I was diagnosed with PCOS when I was 19 and told that I would never have children because of it. One night I was at home and had a cyst rupture and caused me to pass out. Once at the emergency room I was told that I had internal bleeding from it, and that I had to go on immediate bed rest. I visited with my doctor…
  • I have the home DVD's and do it 7 days a week, after my babies go to sleep, i get in at least 25 minutes a day, but shoot for more if possible. :)
  • I used a HRM and found the Zumba Calculator online to be accurate, at least for me. The HRM said I burnt 750 calories in 45 minutes and so did the Zumba Calculator, I think a couple of factors contribute to the calculations such as your age, weight, height, and how much effort you put into the routines. When I do the Rush…
  • Its extremely addicting! I almost get sad when I think about not doing it. LOL. Since I got the DVD's in the mail, I use them everyday! And yes you burns lots of calories, but you earn them! :)
  • I guess my metabolism came out hibernation with a vengeance. I went from 24/26 to a 16/18 within 8 days. I cut out sodas completely and added water and cut back to a 1200 calorie diet on top of that. I am doing between an hour and hour and half of Zumba everyday. I was amazed as well believe me I didn't think that could…
  • You look amazing! You are an inspiration to the board! Keep up the good work!

  • At least I am not the only weighing everyday... I don't know why I do, but its reassurance to me, and keeps me in check. :)
  • I agree Zumba is a nice aggression release! and fat burner!
  • I understand where your coming from. My ex-husband was such a jerk and always put me down, and never got on board with helping me lose weight. I leave him, then he gets healthy, irony. LOL. Anyway, now I do have support, but I use my ex-husbands mistreatment and lack of support as motivation so next time I see him to pick…
  • I have been doing Zumba now for a little over a week and dropped 7.5lbs and 6 pant sizes! I am extremely happy with my results, and the fact I am losing weight out of my legs, and mid-section! It is extremely noticeable that i have lost inches in my waist and legs! Of course like with any exercise program its what you put…
  • Funny I just had this debate with my hubby, LOL. He wanted me to work in the morning because he believes you burn better throughout the day, but I am just happy to get a work out in between my 2 babies sleeping. LOL. So I exercise anytime between 8:00am and 12:00am.. LOL.
  • Hello, I have been doing Zumba for 3 days and lost 5lbs with a reduced calorie diet, and drinking LOTS of water! I love Zumba it is pushing me in directions I never thought possible. I used to dance in High School and missed it! Sitting up with a 1.5 month old at night I saw the commercials and thought to myself that…
  • Hi All, I am new to this site and Zumba, I was wondering if anyone wanted to start a group to share success and be a virtual support system. Also, wondering how successful other people have been at it. Thanks so much!
