Thanks everyone :) I called and left a message for the director. It doesn't look like I'll be able to start until next week (going out of town in a couple days) since she hasn't gotten back to me yet. I'll ask her about the swimsuit as well...I haven't bought the bottom yet so if it's going to drag I'd rather not bother…

I've been doing zumba for 1.5 years. I LOVE it, it's really hard for me to do anything else (I plateaued only doing zumba and now have to incorporate body weight). I've never done the DVD's though, I had a class I went to then moved to another state. I now follow Lauren Fitz on youtube as well as Darci Serr and do some of…

Please ignore my earlier post if you saw it. I had both of those deleted, just going to ignore unhelpful comments. I went ahead and did my body weight. I do circuits so I'm unsure if that wields the same results as me just incorporating those exercises into zumba songs. What I might do is body weight 2-3 times a week plus…

Thank you for this! I've been eating 1450 calories and got stuck in a plateau at the same exact weight as last year. Decided to try this and my BMR is 1459 and I'm supposed to be eating 1700 a day. Hoping I can break out of this now, thanks again for posting this!

Yes...I know lifting weight won't get me bulky. I wouldn't have done Body Revolution if I thought this, I want to get more toned. Otherwise I'd just do Zumba all day lol Anyway, I searched around the website some more and found that free beginners one I did before. Think I might go with this instead of JM, still not sure…

I like adding kale to mine. Kale is really good for you and you can't even taste it with the fruit

I went ahead and bought it. My HRM got bumped for the 3rd time and once again changed my age and weight. When I went to workout today I noticed it had changed my age and weight so that's what happened the day I posted this. Thanks for the replies, can't wait to not fight with my HRM anymore lol

I forgot to mention which protein you should get. As Vermilliana mentioned, get whey protein. There's a lot of different good brands...can't remember all of them but they're easy to look up. I currently use optimum nutrition since it's one of the top brands and also the cheapest of the top brands lol. They have a lot of…

May 1st: 36 minutes May 3rd: 36 minutes Time left: 1368 minutes

May 1: 36 minutes Jilliam Michaels workout 5 body revolution

I'm a big fan of Jillian Michaels workouts so I recommend her videos. Since you want to tone and lose 15, maybe try the ripped in 30. I'm currently doing the body revolution which is 90 days, 6 days a week but I have a lot more to lose lol and it's also aimed towards your whole body. I like working out at home as opposed…

I actually want to exercise more during that time of the month lol. It makes me feel good and lessens cramps, puts me in a better mood.

I only eat when I'm hungry (unless it's one of those times I'm indulging in a piece of chocolate). If I just ate, it's been 30 minutes, and I'm still hungry I drink a ton of water. If I'm still hungry I go eat again. I've noticed since I started eating healthy I get full off of small meals but it does make me hungry more…

I like fish but since you don't...other protein stuff I eat is chicken, turkey (I love turkey), and eggs. I usually have some meat (or fish) with every meal, not always with breakfast, but the rest of the day I do. Cheese sticks are good as well if you just want a snack. You could also buy some whey protein and make…

This is normal. Your burning off the food you ate and energy so it's going to make you hungry. I always workout about an hour before I want to eat dinner (or lunch, depending on when I'm doing the workout). Your supposed to eat something before but not a whole meal since your just going to eat again. I like to eat a banana…

30 minutes 6 days a week. I'm doing a Jillian Michaels program, I do circuit training 4 times a week and cardio 2 times a week. If your worried though just start out small. 30 minutes is a good start, I love doing 30 minutes a day.

I wasn't netting 1200 since according to this Body Revolution I'm supposed to eat 1200 without the exercise. I know the latte wasn't good, that was just a treat for me, I was also tired and still had a class to get through lol. I do have a food scale, that's why it says 4.0 oz, 3.0, 6.0, etc. I always measure my food (I…

Thanks, I changed it and opened it to the public. Guess that would help

I'm 5'1" and 161lbs, started at 175. Trying to hit 125...hoping to be there by the end of the year :) feel free to add me

Chocolate/sweets in moderation!! This is how I gained so much in the first place. After that was exercising, then eating healthy

I just make myself do it, even on days (like today) when I really don't feel like it. I remind myself why I'm doing this and how unhappy I am with my body. I got some huge motivation by looking at Jillian Michaels Body Revolution results...was amazing! So I started that a little over a week ago. I kept waking up and…

Anyone can add me as well :) Currently doing Jillian Michaels Body Revolution, in week 2. I go walking on some days as well...and if I stop being sore constantly I'll add in some Zumba (I miss it!!)

Wow, you look great!! Whenever I think about skipping a day I look at everyone's results and it keeps me motivated

I was just about to make a JM BR topic lol. I have a HRM but won't be using it since your not supposed to eat your calories back. If you want to log it though I'd put it under circuit training. Is anyone doing the kickstart? I just started today and realized I'm supposed to work out twice (which isn't going to happen). If…

Just started working out again...going to see if I can still hit 1440 minutes :) 1440 minutes 02/13 Circuit training (20 mins) 02/15 Zumba (50 mins) 02/16 Circuit training (60 mins) 1310 left

I always have at least 1 cheat day once a week. If I don't I'll crave sweets sometime down the line like CRAZY and then I'll end up pigging out. I usually try to have my cheat day when I do my cardio and if I do end up going over I make sure it's in the "maintain weight" calorie range lol

You can add me if you want, I'd be happy to support you :)

I'm starting again as well, sent you a request :)

bump

Anything chocolate. Cake, pies, donuts, peppermint bark (was on sale for 80 cents, I bought some bags......), ice cream, I love those chocolate chip cookie sundae's at restaurant's that are around 1k calories =/
