I already do Zumba for 1 hour on Mon, Tues, Thurs and then jog/walk 2 miles on Wed and Sunday. However, I had bought 30 ds for after the holidays to incorporate into my workout. My 15 almost 16 year old daughter decided she wants us to do it NOW! So after my Zumba/planking class I've been doing 30 day shred with her, today…

very good post, I know people have told us over and over, and we just shake our heads. Sometimes we make it so hard, when it's so simple. Gotta just start weighing everything.

1) I'm obese 2) I don't want to be obese 3) My mother is obese and has congestive heart failure, diabetes etc...takes like 30 pills a day, I don't want to be my mom 4) I love my life and want to live! 5) I found out I absolutely love exercising and how I feel afterwards

Same here! Educated, (bookkeeper/office manager), mother, daughter, wife, Sunday School teacher to 5th grade girls, Upward Faith Sports Cheer Coach. My tattoos are coverable as well. As far as those who don't like them, I totally respect that, but don't understand the need for bashing someone who does. My tatt pics are on…

exactly, and what a reward those people usually are. People see us together (judging), wow they don't match lol! People have got to learn the beauty of the heart before making assumptions

or for some, it's like armor for them....keeping people away. People that don't judge will not let the tattoos bother them, and will get through that tough exterior to the heart underneath it all. (example: my hubby)

Mon, Tues, Thurs is Zumba for one hour, planking routine, then home to do 30 day shred with my daughter. Wednesday and Sunday is jogging 2 miles or speed walking 3 miles. If I ever can't due to weather I use my elliptical

I have three, all that can be covered, small and feminine. I don't judge anybody else on what they do with their body, I like to decorate the walls of my temple. :smile:

not to chicken, but my daughter has a life-threatening milk allergy. So we are well versed and awesome with milk-free recipes.

MFP (myfitnesspal) calculates calories burned for your height and weight. Where as a HRM (heart rate monitor) such as Polar FT4, uses an actual heart rate monitor on a strap you wear, along with your stats to calculate calories burned....which is much more accurate. MFP would say I was burning 800-900 calories per hour of…

and I always follow back, love seeing others pics, motivation, meals, etc....mine is a whole ton of mess....family, fitness, a lot of homemade, milk-free foods etc

Every person is different. Myself at my heaviest 5'4" weight 301 lbs, size 44DDD. Now 229 lbs, 40 C :sad:

Take a Buddy to laugh with...the first time I was like nope, never again. Then I realized the calories burned and kept going back. It took me three weeks to get the moves down pat!

good that's what I do even with Zumba! If it hurts (like an injury) I let up or stop. I'd rather go at a slower pace than not be able to exercise at all due to an injury.

I've ordered it, and plan to begin it after the holidays. My question to you is, is someone of my size going to be able to do this? I do Zumba for 1 hour 3x a week and walk 3.1 miles twice a week. I'm 229 lbs 5'4

bump (saving this post for when I get mine) Getting one for Christmas along with the Aria Scale. I've just recently bought a Polar FT4 to use as well since everything I've read leads me to believe the flex lacks in some of the cardio area.

Love, love, love zumba. With that being said, just a heads up if you aren't using a HRM, your calories are probably half of what MFP says they are! This is coming from myself and others. I just got my Polar Ft4 HRM. Before that MFP said one hour of Zumba for my height and weight burned 800-900 calories. My HRM has been a…

^^^way to go, keep it up! You can and will do this
