Just joined a gym! I have 45-50 lbs to loose :( I have only been to one class "spin" - it was so hard I could not keep up at all. The Zumba class is not called Zumba but instead Latin Heat. My friend told me it was the same as Zumba so starting next week I am going to try one of those classes :) Congrats on your weight loss this far, I will be cruising in March also :D

OMG I love spin class. I sweat more than in any other class however according to my HRM I dont lose that many more calories. Love the challenge though

I'm turning 40 in March 2012. My mom found an outrageous deal on a Spring Break cruise in March 2012, so we booked a big family vacation for my parents, my husband, my son and myself which will be in honor of my big milestone.

 

It's also the goal for life change including major weightloss.

 

I started taking Zumba classes the week of Sept 12. I'm up to 3 Zumba classes a week and 2 Pilates classes.

 

I LOVE Zumba. I know it has a lot to do with my instructor, who I also love. I've had great success so far losing 4 inches around both my hips and bust and 1 inch each around each thigh. I'm totally pumped and more motivated than ever to continue getting healthy.

 

Anyone else out there a Zumba fan? Or doing Pilates? I thought we could exchange stories, songs, encouragement...

 

WARNING...I love to talk...A LOT...and I will also be using this thread as a kind of record of some other changes I have going on around the house...including, but certainly not limited to, cooking healthy homemade meals and breaking the restaurant/eating out cycle.

 

I hope anyone interested in these topics will join me!

Hey there, Yeah I LOVE Zumba. I lost about 85lbs doing zumba, spin, bootcamp and other things. I started Feb 22nd 2011. I agree I love my instructor so much so that she started at Golds then went to LA Fit to a friends place and now her very own studio and Ive followed her every step of the way. My motivation on the 1st day was a cruise I was taking and my motivation now is to see how much I can lose by this next cruise in April.
