this is on my "bucket list" too! There is a show near me on April 12th, but I just don't think I can be ready by then, and I'm kicking myself for not starting to prep earlier. I think my plan right now is to wait and do another show a couple hours from home on October 5th. I'm a teacher, so I'm off during the summer, so I…

back with pics as promised! The first pic was taken in December 2010, about a month after baby #2 was born. I think I was about 188 or 189 here: second picture was taken in March 2012 (so 15 months later), and I was about 140:

no prob-hope that didn't come across as too rude. I just figure that if you're going to be looking for a job, you should sound like you know what you're talking about. It's not a certification because we don't have to take any types of test, or meet any particular standard-basically Zumba is just giving you permission to…

I started taking zumba classes in January of 2011 when my youngest was 7 weeks old. I was going roughly 2-3 times a week at that point, plus working out with a trainer 3 days a week. In June of last year I got my B1 liscence (whoever said they are getting their "certification", we are not CERTIFIED we are LISCENCED), and…

widowed-my husband died 4.5 months ago. we were married for 21 months. So I'm a single mama to a 3 year old girl and 1 year old boy!

bump! Does anyone have tips/tricks for loose skin on your stomach/chest????

I'm 5'4 and my goal is 125-130lbs...I"m hovering around 140 right now, and I'm still too squishy around the middle! lol

100 days exactly today! and I have logged EVERYTHING I've eaten in those 100 days! Kind of pathetic how anal I am about keeping my "record"-I was in a wedding about 6 weeks ago, and I had to jump on the computer as soon as I got home at 1145 at night so I didn't miss a day logging in! I'm going to my grandparent's farm for…

still at 156 today-scale hasn't moved in two weeks! I was actually at 155 yesterday, but back up again today (could have something to do with the pizza I had for supper!), on the positive side though, I redid my mile challenge this morning and did it in 10:18-one minute faster than on Wednesday! and I also cleaned up my…

I did my one mile challenge yesterday and it took me 11:18. not nearly as fast as some of you ladies, but I'm NOT a runner by any stretch of the imagination, so that actually wasn't too bad for me! I'm going to try to beat it today though! Thank you ladies for pushing me and keeping me motivated!

ok, I just did my four minute challenge. here are my numbers: Jumping Jacks: 73 Sit ups: 37 Pushups: 24- 8 of those were from my toes, and then I was too fatigued so I did 16 from my knees Mountain Climbers-52 I know I walked at least a mile yesterday afternoon, but I was pulling a wagon with about 50 lbs of kids and…

grrr....the scale has not budged at all in the last 10 days! (maybe it's broken? lol). time to step it up! plan for the week: Monday: 60 minutes with personal trainer Tuesday: 50 minutes of spinning in the morning, 60 minutes of Zumba in the evening Wednesday: 60 minutes with personal trainer Thursday: 60 minutes of Zumba…

sorry I'm so late everyone-rough couple of days! anyway, I'm Heather, I'm 27 and I have a two year old daughter and a 4 month old son. I'm currently on maternity leave until September, but in my "real life" I'm a junior high band teacher. I joined MFP on December 28th 2010, because I was having trouble losing weight after…

the last pic was taken 3 or 4 weeks ago...I'm down another 7 lbs since then. about 25 more to go!

I'm 5'4. most of that weight was just weight that I gained during pregnancy!

I haven't had TOM in almost 14 months...one of the perks of pregnancy and then breastfeeding!

I feel your pain. I was an F cup before this last pregnancy, and I'm even bigger rightg now while nursing my 2 month old. When I work out I wear a nursing bra, and then 2 sports bras on top of that. not ideal, but it's the only thing i've found that helps.

my daughter's name is Mackenzie Brynn (2) and my son's name is Paxton Sean (2 months)
