I LOVE Zumba. I usually do it 3-4 times a week, but have taken a bit of a hiatus to try other things. I started back up this week and I felt great afterwards. I'm so happy to hear I wasn't the only one who didn't lose weight, but inches. My hips and legs shrunk more doing Zumba than anyother exercise I have ever done! I…

I really think it all depends on you. I love my wine and I will not allow any diet to take that from me. My sacrifice was to drink it less. I try to only drink once or twice a week and it most definitely is part of my calorie county for the day. If I'm going to do it, I'm going to take responsibility. I do feel a lot…

I love Curves. The one I went to before I moved change the circut everyday, so you were never doing the same thing. They also had cardio machines there. Another one I visited did classes using the circuit along with other exercises. I think it really just depends on what that particular Curves offers. The one were I live…

I've never believed the cardio machines. I've had them tell me I burned less than I actually did. They are just extremely inaccurate. I really want to get a body bugg or something along those lines.

I'm in...I need this final push before school starts back up! Week # 1 -- July 30th -- Goal 360 minutes: Mon: 40 (Elliptical and Arms) Tue: 30 (C25K) Wed: 20 (30 Day Shred)--may get on the elliptical in a bit. Thur: Fri: Sat: Sun: Total / min left: 90 / 360 [/quote]

I love this program! I am on Week 3 technically, but I decided to go back and do Week 2 again because I wasn't happy with how I was doing. I'm so happy I did!! I can't wait until my first 20 minute run :)

Changing my original goal to 3600 calories burned this week: Monday: 533 Elliptical

Hey! Feel free to add me :) My long term goal is 100 lbs as well, so we can definitely motivate each other!!

Very happy! Did you buy something that gives you your body fat or did you go to the doctor?

Yes! So pretty!

I did WW for a while and after doing MFP for about 2 months, I'm upset that I wasted so much money. I love MFP and it's just so simple, a really great way to see exactly what your putting into your body, how exercise works with what you eat and IT"S FREE!!! You'll love it here.

I'm in the same current situation right now...I understand. You can do this because you want to do this! Feel free to add me for support :)

Your hair!

9...great body!

I used to do this with my husband...if I worked out 4 or more times a week he would get me a treat of some sort. Now that I am exercising 6 days a week and a lot more focused on the weight loss aspect of this (when we first started that game I was 35 pounds lighter) you've motivated me to make a new and improved chart like…

You look great...congrats!! What kind of exercise did you do?

I'm in! Been trying to get back into it so this is perfect.

Feel free to add me! Getting on this site it the first step to something wonderful...this is a great place!

I've been playing the piano for 17 years! I've also played the trumpet and the euphonium throughout school. I'm being singing forever though...I'm a chorus teacher!

This is an awesome story! Thank you for sharing. Good for you and keep it up!!!!

It's hard, but I think doing it at home by yourself makes it harder. For me, I need to motivate myself even more when I'm alone. But, I do love the workout. When I tried level 2 it was shameful :)

I go to Zumba 4 times a week and am just obsessed. I can't imagine doing it at home alone. It really is changing my body in so many ways. I pay $5 per class which is disgustingly cheap for the kind of high intensity work out I get. I really don't think you'd get the same effect from a DVD.

I love this!! I'm in :)

9.5...very pretty!

Same exact thing going on here! I got super cozy with my home life, stopped exercise and 35 lbs later here I am! We can do this and get it off. Feel free to add me so that we can motivate each other.

Hey! I just finished out my first week and I'm so happy with this site. I really feel like I wasted my time and money with Weight Watchers. Feel free to add me so we can motivate each other :)

Cheese can be a problem for me too...it's so good!! You really seem to have your goals set and that's awesome. A little cheese hear and there won't do you wrong as long as you're not over doing it and staying within your calorie count. i just started myself and watching that calorie count has been eye opening! I would love…

I have found that if I don't eat a good, filling breakfast and lunch I am much hungruer at night. Try beefing up those two meals and see if that helps.
