Did Zumba fitness class last night - for 563 calories, 55 minutes. Hitting it again tomorrow a.m. - then off to the Zumbathon.

nice to know i'm not the only one. it's so strange too how one mirror shows differently than another. i tell you i so don't like the mirrored walls when i'm working out (yes we have them in zumba too) - but i just put on a pair a capris this morning that didn't fit a week ago and they slipped right on so i KNOW i'm doing…

Taking the class in Portland, Oregon - Gina Grant is teaching. From what I understand, she is the one in all the videos with Beto. Next to her I will look like an amazon woman! LOL Thanks for all the info. Very helpful since I wasn't sure - I did hear the ZIN thing was good - i turned it into a mini-vacation as we are…

Woohoo! thanks for sharing your efforts!

yo shorties! just giving a shout out! :D

Heh. I signed up for the Instructor certification class at the end of July - sooooo excited! I think I already have a substituted gig lined up for August. LOL Those classes fill up FAST! I want to do the Zumba toning certification too but we will see.

Most people either log it as hi impact aerobics or dance. you can "add" it to your own database. I have an HRM which tells me calories burned so I added Zumba to my activities and log the numbers from from my HRM. Usually burn between 515 and 610 for 60 minutes - depending on how energy i give it. Okay... Monday: rest…

i've been toying with the Phoenix Inn - is it nice? Pictures only do so much for hotels. LOL My boyfriend is going with me and will probably just hang out there while I'm in my all day training (hence the I don't want a motel 6...) What is your take on the Homestead Suites? The price is right.... but....

Yep. the Diva Den at 11959 Garden Place - says portland but i looked it up and it's actually Tigard?

any washingtonians close to Monroe - zumbathon this weekend to benefit Peyton Rudkin and Peyton's Ranch (Peyton has cancer - Peyton's Ranch is a place for animals with no homes). Hit me up if you want the info. :D Donation of $15 - plus some raffles you can get tickets for.

Hi - my name is Mia and I'm a Zumbaholic! Count me in! I have Zumba Tues, Thurs and Saturdays and this Saturday am attending a Zumbathon for 3 more hours on top of all that! Awesome!

we could be twins... almost :D

Cute idea... but i am admittedly too lazy to go back 15 pages... if my twin is out there, i am: Age: 43 Height: 5'4" CW: 155.2 GW: 135/140? (I'll know it when i get there) Shout out! Where are you!

okay... so i have to vent - (or cry) - always get so bummed when someone on MFP says they weigh xxx (my weight) and yet they fit into 5-6 because they are 5'9" or whatever. here i drop 20 pounds and fit into a 10 at the same weight they have. GRRRR... Being a shortie can be so frustrating! okay vent over. nice to see all…

I'm sure you'll get a million different answers to this. I still swear by my Polar FT4. :D

Love my FT4 - amazon has it for less than $100. Considered getting the FitBit for everyday use (for the rest of the day and for walk/step counts) but for workouts? FT4 is great - chest strap and all... ;)

oh yeah.... totally need these! welcome back!

all depends on how picky they are. there is an awesome mexican creamy crockpot chicken recipe on here. It is one of my newest favorites! http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/125265-mexican-crockpot-creamy-chicken?hl=Mexican+Crockpot+Creamy+Chicken

my super sized arms are getting slimmer and toner! woot!

Awesome! This will encourage me to get out and walk at lunch since my regular workouts are Zumba (no walking...) Extra is good! :D

Take one of the Jello Mousse Dark Chocolate Mint Temptations cup, slice up some strawberries, add a dollop of Cool Whip Free - and prepare for the big "O" face - OMG... i feel like i should feel guilty but for 110 calories? No guilt involved.

i got nuthin'... but to soldier dad - BOOYAH and thank you for your service!

dominos website is really good - you can input the size of pizza, the crust, and the toppings and it will calculate it for you per slice. awesome! :D

until this challenge i never realized how bad i was in the fruit and veggie dept. i always thought i was pretty good about that! whoopsie!

okay... this totally kicked my butt (or is it arms...) - wow... but i did 'em. :D

oh yay for arm workouts! don't have weights at work tho and i'm pretty sure my 1 lb zumba toning sticks won't be quite enough. so i guessi have to do them all tonight. yikes! thanks for this one. my bat wings need to go far far away!

you always have squats on my zumba days... LOL but i'm in.

this was very very good - the boyfriend even liked it (and he NEVER says he likes my cooking... LOL)

Back in the day... when I was probably in my fitness "peak" (college and pre-kid) -my measurements were 36-25-36. I don't figure I will ever get my waist or my hips back to that size - kids do that to you and so have set my weight goals accordingly. I'll be thrilled to be around 38-27-38 if that is even manageable.

Okay - I'm in. Definitely need to add more veggies. Would help if we KNEW what a serving was...
